Other SmartphonesHello. I bought SGS8 last week (actually it is 6th day today) and from the beginning I have bad battery life. After removing my device from charger, after few minutes battery drops on 99, 98 etc.
I turned off Always On display, location is set to Battery saving. This is my second device, my main device is iPhone 7 so all my apps are here. Here I have Viber AND FB. After 3 hours battery went to 80%. With LIGHT usage.
Can this be normal?

Other SmartphonesHi @Ratnik987,
Do you have services such as Wi-Fi, Mobile Data, Location and Bluetooth activated? Do you close down your background apps? Can you provide a screenshot of your battery usage?

Here are my screenshots. Location is on battery savi g, Wi-Fi is on, data on when out of Home.
Bluetooth and NFC are always off. Also I use built in Device maintenance app to put down all apps after I finish using my device.
ALL my battery draining apps such as instagram, WhatsApp, Viber, Telegram, Duolingo etc are on my iPhone. Here are Samsung apps plus some of mine which I rarely use.

Other SmartphonesThere doesn't appear to be anything out of the ordinary here. Is your software up to date? Go to: Settings > Software Update > Download Updates Manually.

Other Smartphonesi would try to do factory reset and then track battery life...i have the same phone and when fully charged it shows 50 hours of battery life remaining, i charge it every third day (i dont use Fast Charge option)

Other SmartphonesI will take my phone to repair service in Telekom because nobody can make me think this is normal (they tried on American community)
As phone is 7 days old, my warranty says that it will be changed with new device.
