Zenfone 8 users, what's your SoT (Screen on Time)?

[michal_pado]

~7h here, mostly watching videos and browsing the net. Advanced battery sliders, all settings to the left.

4-6 hours here.

Do you have adaptive battery and background app management turned on?

Yes and yes. Also no 5G (only wifi) + 60 Hz everywhere.

Yeah, I have both of these turned off, but maybe I should reconsider it now.

I also don't use 5g but have some 4g mobile data usage in between. I am running at 90 or 120Hz fixed though

Then why spend so much money on a flagship phone?, most mid range phones will give you the settings you've described at a fraction of the cost, while people keep setting their devices to power save mode ,lowest refresh rate etc then the manufacturers will keep ignoring ongoing issues with battery life etc.
