Anders_ASUSHere you go.https://zentalk.asus.com/en/discussion/comment/45638#Comment_45638
xtomylee, please don't make up your own settings. The whole purpose with this thread is to sync our settings. If you set your screen brightness to 75%, there will be a bigger difference in our results than if we test at 100%. I'm not saying 100% is entirely fair as there are brightness variations between displays but it's easier to compare at 100% than 75%
It's also important that we have X-mode OFF.
Please use these settings and surrounding conditions
- X-Mode OFF
- 100% brightness
- Adaptive brightness Off
- 120Hz
- Airplane Mode active
- Volume +1 above muted (audio circuit will be active but inaudible)
- System lighting Off
- Room temperature as close to 23 celsius as possible
- Keep away from strong light
Sunlight or a very bright desk lamp may put the display in overdrive and increase the brightness to above 600 nits.
In my second test without throttling, I reached 7h and 30 min. For those of you who haven't used PCMark before. This test runs from 100% to 20% so it doesn't matter what the battery percentage says in the screenshot.

xtomyleeLooks good! There's about 3% error margin in PCMark for Android but we can already say that if you have 7+ hours. Then there's nothing wrong with your phone and If you can reach 8h and 30min like OPC, then you have a really good battery.https://zentalk.asus.com/en/discussion/comment/45894#Comment_45894

Remember!
Preparation & testing environment:
Temperature as close to 23 celsius as possible. Too cold = lower battery life. Too hot = lower performance
Keep away from sunlight and very bright indoor lights
Charge battery 100%
Kill all apps and restart your phone
The recommended settings are:
X-Mode OFF
100% brightness
Adaptive brightness off
120Hz
Airplane Mode active
Volume +1 above muted
Settings are as follow. is this considered normal @Anders_ASUS ?
X-Mode OFF
100% brightness
Adaptive brightness off
120Hz
Airplane Mode active
Volume +1 above muted
i tried agan and it is much lower
IRONHIDEIf this test was made indoors and away from sunlight, then I would say It's a bit on the short side. I would advise you to visit an ASUS Service Center and ask them to test your battery.

But just to make it clear. Battery degradation is to be expected if you game for hours and hours while charging in a hot environment.
I know some of our users live in areas with a temperature of up to 40 celcius. To play demanding games in this environment will degrade your battery much much faster than if you were to live in Europe.
