Post your battery usage in build 10080

[anon(8150199)]

I'm thinking of pulling the trigger to the new build on my Lumia 920. I can live with bugs, but not horrible battery life. So folks, share what you're experiencing on your devices (not necessarily the 920).

1020 battery is discharging ridiculously quick.
Unfortunately the battery saver app doesn't seem to work so I can't tell you exactly why, but I have WiFi (strong connection) on without bluetooth or location services on.

It's roughly drained about 50% in the past 2 hours

edit: I've kind of had my fill of the Win10 preview for phones, but it won't even let me revert back to 8.1 >_<

I have this also - Also a 1020

50%, ouch.

On my L535 battery is holding ok. Disconnected from charger a few hours ago at 84% which normally would be bad but have been using office apps and email etc plus installing a few different apps. So battery is fine for 535 so far.

Seems like I'm getting better battery life unless I'm streaming from iheart radio but its noticeably better at least so far that was only one day

No problems with battery life here on the HTC One M8. I was able to do 2 factory resets on the same battery and still have plenty of juice left.

 

[LSDigital]

Its fine on my 920

Mine is the same with the previous build, but still halves battery life over 8.1 - a day instead of two. Regardless, that's to be expected of a preview build.

FYI, battery saver is now integrated into Settings in build 10080 as I discovered - System > Battery. It's still incomplete (you can't toggle background apps), but it will tell you what apps are using what amounts of battery, even screen time and system consumption.

Appalling life on my L930. It ate through about 63% right in front on me in standby mode, in less than 50 minutes!

 

[ShannyMan]

I upgraded on my M8 which constantly overheats and kills the battery on me, and so far it's been pretty stable and my battery life has been good. My biggest complaint is the inability to toggle background tasks, so I have several apps that won't update the live tiles.

My 920 unfortunately suffers badly under the TP. Last update didn't improve that. Got worse tbh. But, no moaning. Don't like it? You were not forced plus we can not emphasize enough the fact that every single participant was warned over....and over....
