I was running the beta of 11 on my iPhone 7 Plus and the battery life was terrible. Now that I received my X I restored from Icloud to a non beta and it works great.

The battery life however with moderate use isn’t lasting me as long others or my wife who uses her phone more than I do.

Not sure if it’s the phone, the backup or whether I have only used the Mophie pad for wireless charging since day 1.

Please advise.

Mine looks pretty much the same as yours. I am at 7%, with 6 hours 55 minutes usage and 14 hours standby. Coming from an iPhone 6, the battery is really good. But compared to coming from an iPhone 7 Plus, the X's battery probably isn't as large as the plus.
 
It’s got more than the 8plus from what I read. People have been having way better results from what I’ve seen.
 
The X has slightly more than the 8 Plus, and the 7 Plus has the most. How long your battery lasts depends on your own personal usage as well. Facebook typically takes up a lot of battery, so a lot of people just use the safari Facebook. I'm not sure why your safari is using so much battery though.

I also read that FaceID uses battery too for scanning your face, so that might have to do with it whenever you use autofill.
 
My doesn't seem to hold a charge. Quick use of wake this morning for a 20 minute trip I was down to 50. returned back home and it was 30. placed it on a charger, did not charge. plugged in charger and it got to 80 and stopped. That and I can't play movies or music on it because it crashes each time. Been on the phone with apple for the last 45 minutes trying to reset it.
