What battery life cycle is normal?

[gsjansen]

My battery life has been phenomenal, particularly after updating to firmware 27. I am on OS .63.

I have been using my phone non stop today since 5:45 this morning, so right now, after nearly 9 hours, am currently at 76% left with 19 hours and 49 minutes left.....

Hey Cortana is on
All apps can run in the background

I love the 950 XL!!!!!!!

This is unbelievable! How did you use your phone? web surfing, gaming, email, video calls?

howdy hardyang........

using my pnone for emails, phone calls, and 5 hours streaming music groove music via Bluetooth to my jambox. (from 8 am to 1 pm)

during the working week, I stream music for at least 8 hours to my jambox. the one major plus I love about the 950 xl is the battery life!

Try this: after you fully charge your phone, change the region and let the phone restart. You will see a significant battery decrease for new phones, then charge it, do the same stuff. After several times your battery will be in a better state.

Explain, this does not make any sense.

Sorry, I don't really know the internal mechanism of this. But for new phones, every time you restart, you will see a drop in battery percentage. I suppose this restart and charge can help calibrate the battery management system?

look in the forums for skype, I posted how to turn this off, it will suck your battery life big time.
