Had the 6plus since saturday after returning my regular 6 due to yellow tinted screen.
My 6 plus is great! Bright whites, no dead pixels etc.
My question is battery life.
On 1/3rd brightness my 6 could get around 7 hours (on screen) fairly heavy usage on wifi / cellular.
Last night i ran my 6plus from 99% to 1% and got around 9 and a half hours (on screen).
Today ive had 7 hours 30 mins (on screen time) and have 30% battery remaining. (Guessing this charge will get to 10 hours 20 minutes on screen time) (Im getting around 1 hour per 10% on screen time)
Is this okay for a plus? as you can see im using a lot of power sucking apps (youtube etc)
All settings optimized such as location off etc.
The reason i ask is because im seeing wild figures on here of around 17 hours on screen so are these guys actually using youtube etc or just using calender # thanks
