After four hours of mild usage I've already gone down to 70 percent. Is that normal?

Hi! Welcome to CB!!!
I would say that yes, for a new device that sounds right on target. Questions for you - do you live near a good signal? is your bluetooth on while not in use? is your wifi on when not in use? is your brightness at 30% or so? what apps have you loaded and have open? how many email accounts and what have you set them to, push or fetch?
- Turn off keyboard sounds.
- Turn off allow gestures while locked
- Turn off Bluetooth, NFC, Hotspot and Tethering if unseeded.
- Use WiFi as much as possible.
- Use 3G instead of 4G or even 2G if you really want your battery to last.
- Turn brightness down to <30%. I have it on 0% as in different lighting conditions, 0% will be as bright as 100%
- If you have multiple emails, turn off push and have the most important set to sync every 3 minutes and the rest every 1-4 hours.
- Uninstall applications you never use including default ones (Evernote I deleted as it drains battery and I will never use it)
- Give a new Z30 a week (including if you have updated software or loaded a week) for everything to settle in.
- You should wait for your battery to deplete until it hits 30% full before charging so you can properly cycle it. Dont keep topping it up.
Give it some time, a week or so, for the OS to settle down.

Great tips @QBNKELT & @ CATLINFD.

1.Get a Z30
That list is good enough for me, apparently.
