Zenfone 9 Battery Drain by "Others"

Hello,
I have just bought a Zenfone 9 last week and I am having bad battery life. The SOT is roughly 3 to 4 hours. I can see most of the battery is consuming by "Others".
Is it normal?
Model Name: Zenfone 9
Firmware Version: 32.2050.2050.34
I am really disappointed with the battery performance so far.

Thank you

I removed Localization permission for Weather app and I no longer have "Others" (so far) however the weather app doesn't work now...

I see the same problem happens on zenfone 9 as well. I have pretty same stuff on zenfone 8 and A12. I think this is due to sensors - I checked it with better battery stats and it's only thing that comes to my mind. So try checking battery stats with it. For my zenfone 8 it seems that motion detector(sns_smd) is draining battery, but this is just suspicion.

hey @eduardo_ASUS @keren_ASUS @Panda_ASUS @STARRAIN_ASUS @Falcon_ASUS @Olivier_ASUS @Anbby_ASUS @Aureliannn_ASUS @Mattias_ASUS @Jiaszzz_ASUS 
is there anyone here who cares about customers and wants to help us ?

They probably all went to work for Samsung lol. I can't beleive we are treated this way, literally one of the reasons I bought this phone was for the battery, I am actually saving up for the s24 now.

I actually giggled 😂 I hear the S24 is a great phone!
