@sajjadalisyed: If you head to Settings > Battery > View details, then this will give you a breakdown of your usage. Can you see any apps or features listed here that are using a higher than expected amount of battery?

Maps and whatsaap calls bro. , some time I have to charge twice when I use maps . Goes down till 30 % at about 9.30 pm. I charge my phone to 80 before I sleep ..then use it all day general YouTube the most but it but use maps in the evening as a part of my work .it say maps has used the most of my battery.. I think these is normal right bro ..?

@sajjadalisyed: If the Battery information is in line with your usage, then this isn't necessarily a cause for concern. Screen on time and Location services can result in battery drainage while using navigation apps such as Google Maps. Similarly, lengthy calls over Wi-Fi are also expected to use a portion of your current battery life.

Battery usage in hours is an extremely subjective way to measure battery performance since it doesn't say what was the phone used for within that period of time and even when u do say, in your case maps and whatsapp, that still doesn't say much. Screen On Time (SoT) is a more objective metric and with that said, with the way I use my S24u I get about 4 to 4.5h of SoT going from 80 to 20% in a period of about 24h. The reason SoT is a better metric and one always worth mentioning in regards to any battery drain concerns is because the screen is the biggest power consumer in any phone. A voice call with the screen off would consume less power than a video call not because less data is being transmitted (although that is also a factor, just a lesser one) but because in a video call the screen is constantly on, same goes for navigation. And all of that said, I'm curious what SoT u get going from 80 to 20%. Also remember to charge to 100% about once a month so the battery wouldn't "forget" it total capacity. Yes, that's a thing apparently.
