Well mines at 74% with 2hrs, 59 minutes usage and 4hrs 54min standby. Im a bit underwhelmed with the battery life at the moment =/. Heres hoping a few cycles on the battery will help.
Edit: Thanks for starting this thread, I was about to start one my self and then saw this one.

Got it on 83%, at 5PM set it up, installed apps, a handful of phone calls, geekbench'd, updated to 11.1... It's now 1am and I'm on 15%
No since it reset during the update and I rebooted a few times to try to fix a glitch with a face id login not working

1.5 hours on the phone, it did list that
Watching this thread as iPhone 7 Plus owner on the fence between X and 8 Plus. Loving screen size and battery life of Plus models but are too big for me.
With my usage (BT always on, wifi on) I usually come back home at 8pm with 30% left. Using mainly Whatsapp, music (through BT headphones), youtube, web browsing, email for about 4 hours a day. Apple watch always connected.
I'm curious to see how it performs compared to it with similar usage.

based on my first charge it's on par with the 7 plus for me if not slightly better.
Currently: 82%
Usage time:5 hr 27 min.
Standby time: 13 hr 58 min.
So far so good. It's on par with my 8 Plus. I have similar stats.

From my experience so far, I charged up to 100% for the first time last night, but after also seeing what the battery drain is like, I will be bringing my charger in my work bag today to see how long I can go. Will post results tonight.
I can’t be the first one stating this on the thread, am I?
You have to wait at least 48-72 hours before judging the battery on a new iPhone.
Your new phone is currently indexing files, downloading photos/apps from iCloud, learning your face from Face ID.
Lastly, your shiny new iPhone has been used MUCH more since it’s new to us - like a new car going out on a joy ride daily the first week.
Just relax and wait a few days before even judging the battery life. Mine has been plugged in all afternoon and evening yesterday and never went over 75%. I’ve been on it nonstop

Picked up my iPhone X on Saturday @ 2PM. I used it for the remainder of the day and charged it that night. I removed it from the charger Sunday morning around 9am and have left it on until about 7pm this evening (Monday) when it died. The attached screen shot is with 1% battery remaining.
Coming from an iPhone 6s, I'm very impressed.

This is more or less what I used to achieve with my 7 Plus on iOS 10. If this is what people get, iPhone X could become the phone I was waiting for ages...

In par with 7 Plus on iOS 10 (also, usage is similar to mine). These are great results IMO, it's a phone that lasts more than a day and in a much smaller footprint than Plus series!!!
How in the hell did you get this usage? I am looking at
56% with 4 hours and 2 minutes usage and 7 hours and 27 minutes standby.
I’ve had mine since last Friday. Had an 8+ and 7+ (8+ went to wife now). Battery has not been that great. Today, here’s the following so far. Full charge as of this morning. Now:
74%
Usage- 2hr, 28 min
Standby - 4hr, 39 min
Safari (audio?) 17%
Messages 11%
Mail w/Background Activity (7%)
Judging by the post about 82% after 5 hours, something’s off. Both the 7+ I had and definately the 8+ had much better battery life.

Anyone use the Tapatalk app for this forum? Mine is using 23% of my battery. I am wondering if it’s not working correctly with the new update.
