Switched the phone on today and it was at 72% and said âMore than 6 days leftâ. Did some app testing for about 15 minutes. Suddenly itâs at 69% and says â6 hours and 19 minutes leftâ (!!!). From 6 days down to 6 hours in 15 minutes ???

I think itâs based on what you consume the last 15 minutes. So if you continue so, 6h. But I you leave the phone, you perhaps will have 5 days left.

But seriously⊠just playing around with apps for 15 minutes cannot drain the battery that much. And today I just let the phone sit there for a while, doing nothing at all, and it now shows â5 hours 55 minutes leftâ 
Why does it not auto-correct back to 6 days or 5 days or whatever ? Just because I used the phone ONCE for 15 minutes, it crumbles from 6 days to 6 hours and never recovers ? Then something must be wrong.

Yeah the battery indicator is pretty wonky and doesnât seem very useful when predicting how long itâs going to last.

@bone_naga I have to agree. Itâs not an exact science.
@urszula downloading podcasts instead of streaming them has tremendously improved battery utilization! I had no idea streaming was eating into it that much. Plus I just us eInk Bro and download them straight to my Kompakt and sort into playlists as need with update 1.4. Have also started doing this with music but overall best battery utilization improvement practice Iâve made!!!
