    I have a cheap ass Xiaomi smartphone (with a clean MIUI install rather than their bloatware-riddled default install) and a typical day of usage seldom eats 14% or more of battery.

    (BTW, if it was now that Xiaomi removed bootloader unlocking, I wouldn’t buy a phone from them)

    I don’t think I’ve ever seen the thing eat more that about 21% battery during a whole day of usage.

    I suspect it’s a mix of my own usage pattern (for example, mobile data is usually off), having a processor which is on the weak side coupled with modern battery tech so it’s lower on consumption whilst the battery has more capacity than older ones, and having a non-bloated version of the OS so there isn’t a ton of crap running on the background.
