    Yes, it's normal. And your phone works at night As I said earlier, in Bedtime mode (Notifications off but Network and Headless app On), I loose roughly 12% per day, so more than 8 days of standby I guess
    You can always reset the estimated time for your battery (see my precedent post) and take a look at the list of advices I gave you.
    sorry but your phone eats 12% all day (24hours) with network on .... and mine 14% in 9 hours (without anything installed apps- accounts etc) airplane mode- also sim card out of the phone without sd card installed ,and you say its normal ?
    sorry but i think that its not normal ....

    P.S i want you to understand that my phone doesnt have any extra app installed , i dont have created any account -mails etc , i have taken of my sim and there is not any SD card installed....

    My bad, I misread your second screenshot. Reset your battery estimated time. If in 2 days with good charging cycles, nothing change, it's time to change the battery.

    One more thing though, you said you autoloader leaks before reloading your phone to the last official version, right ? Did you install Headless Android apps when you were on those leaks ?

    Not in my case, the battery is good (just a little bit less than Z30).
    See my pics for my heavy use at the weekend.

    Add me to the list of people who don't understand OP's point. Why the concern for battery life if one's not touching it and leaves it in airplane mode? Regardless of whether the battery life is in fact good or bad, may as well turn the phone off altogether or plug it in if you're not using it. No more issue...

    Ok, original poster

    Could you snap a 12 hour battery drain chart with all the things and apps your Q10 is supposed to do instead of something pointless as no usage at all? Unless your use case is to achieve a certain number of hours without the antennas on for some reason.

    My usage is high and I get an average of 10-12 hours per charge. I carry a 2nd battery. It is worth noting that if you use an Android app heavily, the drainage is more or less 50% faster.

    Suppose the best way to evaluate the battery is to get another phone side by side with your BlackBerry, same network, same apps and services running and see. Maybe get an iphone and android device and see how they go against it. From my experience my Q10 battery life is at least twice as good as my HTC one, same network and apps and I definitely use my q10 more. Then you can comparatively assess how good the Q10 is.... like I did.

    Besides my nokia C2-00 (that's right, look it up) that runs for more than a week without charging, the Q10 has the best battery quality I ever had. Compared to my samsung phones like the note 2, s3 and others, BlackBerry seems to make the phones with the best battery. And this is not from my experience only, my gf has a Q10 as well, and another friend's has a Q10 as well, and they all say that this has the best battery life of a smartphone. Hmm.

    First, you have to do full battery cycle. 0 to 100% without using your phone (at night) and wait for 0% (or very near) to charge it again. There is too many little bump of charging hour in your graph. You really must avoid it.
    Then, after one day of usage (or not), why not giving us the second screen under this graph, with the "Since last charge" ticked ?

    And don't forget to reset your battery estimated time before charging it to full.

    Your phone is probably switching between 4G and 3G all the time, so that's why the battery is going so low so quickly.

    3 Q10's in about 1,5 year
    All of them with the worst battery out there .
    It's the first time in my life (have changed so many devices) that a phone eats battery without doing nothing ....
    Airplane mode (everything closed )and in 5 hours without touching nothing the phone from 100 went to 89%
    I love so much this device but the battery is awful ....
    All 3 devices i have changed with official os , wiped cleaned without anything installed and in 5 hours 11% battery down ...
    Of course I have tried many times leakes but unfortunately with the same results
    I also have changed new genuine NX1 batteries ,but same here ...
    Ok all smartphones out there have awful batteries ,but without touching a phone losing so much juice , i only have seen this on the Q10
    I think that blackberries software is the problem and it's seems from the beginning of 10.1 util the leak 10.3 nothing has changed ....
    Please Q10 owners what is your experience of the battery usage when your device is totally in airplane mode without anything opened ?
    Thank you
    I had horrible battery life as well. Recently loaded 10.3.0.908 and decided to only sync 1 exchange email account. Battery in idle has never been this good. With push email battery drain is 1% or less. I than synced Skype and Facebook. Idle drain increased to 8% per hour... Did a wipe and reloaded 10.3.0.908 with 1 exchange email and now back to 1% idle drain. I have used my phone with give or take 8% per hour idle battery drain for the past 5 month assuming it was the way it's supposed to be... Your issue might be different but you should give it a shot . One other charge I made was to put my network setting as 3g only instead of 2g3g4g. It used to switch back and forth constantly between 2g and 3g.
