Galaxy S22 Disappointing Battery Life

[thomas_yan]

Hi guys

I have got a brand new Galaxy S22 for about 1.5 weeks now.

The battery life is really disappointing.

I have checked reviews before purchase & everyone is saying 5-6 hrs screen on time minimum.

However my phone never last for more than 3 hrs screen on time since i have purchased!

I have turned off every possible settings & all the apps are in deep sleep mode.

The battery life is utterly unacceptable for a brand new phone.

Is my phone faulty? I am almost going to ask for a refund!

Let me know about yours, thanks!

That's why there's a button called (put unused apps to sleep) its meant to put them there itself automatically
Or am I missing something?

[Gauranga]

Yeah that's true but we also get to do it manually so if we know we will use certain apps rarely then we can just place them into deep sleep earlier

[Blessed4life]

True, but it doesn't make sense putting apps in (put unused apps to sleep) if it doesn't have high battery usage, meaning high percentage usage, think about it if its not using hardly any battery if any what's the point?
In my opinion.

Good point 👍🏼

same with me... mizerable battery life with dark mode on.. adaptive battery on... and all features that save it on... is not take me at all from 9 AM to 6PM.. perhaps the last phone that i ll ever buy from this company... ia awful...  I don't want to think what the battery will last in a few months from now...

+1 sadly 😕 
I particularly 'enjoy' all this advice to faff around and turn off half of the features... on a brand-new flagship £800 phone!! Not sure whether to laugh at it or cry...

First thing what I was done after receiving phone was fresh flash  last available software then factory reset from recovery i not using smart switch to copy my data from S21

My settings is normal i only switch off 5g network because I don't need and set screen refresh to standard

Bluetooth on, location on when needed usually half day on data when I'm in work and rest day on WiFi

I can easy manage all day

My phone is S22 base
