I'm using S21 FE for a month now. Battery Performance is really poor.

Prior to this I've used F62, which used to work really good (7000Mah).

Exynos makes the battery performance worse, can't even get a day backup after disabling almost all the features.

Screen always set to 60 HZ, Dark Mode Enabled, Power Saving Always On, No Gaming on the device (Did the changes after watching couple of youtube videos to Improve battery performance).

Wiped Cache Partition, Did Factory Reset. 

120 HZ is there however you can't use it, If you want to please keep the charger close. 

Samsung does everything right however not sure why they force Exynos and make the device unusable.

Thinking of switching as can't continue with this device even on moderate use (Always trusted samsung however need to reconsider).

    My device is also S21 FE, after OneUI 5 update, the battery seems to be better. At least getting 6 to 7 Hrs of SoT. I rarely travels so if you are the one who travels often then the battery may hit poorly.Screenshot_20221203_022400_Device care.jpgScreenshot_20221204_014841_Device care.jpgScreenshot_20221203_021530_Device care.jpg

    Good SOT for sure. Have you done further more settings apart from what I've mentioned above ?

    I never enabled Power Saving Mode, but mostly I used the device in 60Hz. My RAM Plus is disabled though.

    Recently I've enabled Ram Plus however will disable it again. Also will turn off Battery Saver. November Patch is pushed now, see if it makes any difference.

    I'm already using adaptive battery since purchase. Assumed battery will be fine after a period of time however no Improvement at all. Even at 60HZ maximum 5 hours SOT. Did all the tweaks, could be an hardware Issue.

    This is the Issue basically, I was using F62 which had massive 7000Mah battery. Certainly 4500Mah can't compete with 7000Mah however at least it should give decent sot.

    Dear Samsung member,

    Greetings from Samsung customer support.

    We acknowledge your query and apologize for the inconvenience caused to you and will surely assist you regarding the same. And please follow the easy troubleshooting steps which might help to solve the issue.

    Battery optimization helps you to boost the battery performance of your device. To check battery optimization:

    Settings > Select Device Maintenance/Device Care > Optimize > Optimize all options like Battery, Storage and Memory

    Kindly turn off the smart features of the device and other connectivity features when not in use, which will eventually help you to reduce battery power consumption (smart features such as Motion gestures in advance feature and Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, Hotspot, etc.).

    Please follow the below steps:
    1. Swipe down on the home screen to open the notification panel.
    2. Tap on Bluetooth, Location/GPS, Wi-Fi, Mobile hotspot, NFC, etc. to turn off.

    In case the issue still occurs. Please register your concern in Samsung Members Application (Open Samsung Members Application > Get help > Send Feedback > Error report).

    Thank you for writing to Samsung.
    Warm regard,
    Samsung customer support

    Try this — it helped me get stable performance on F62 without issues:

    1. Always use Power Saving Mode – keeps background activity and CPU usage under control.


    2. Charge overnight only when temperature is low – avoid charging in hot environments.


    3. Go to Device Care > Storage, let it load, and clear cache files. If that doesn’t appear, manually clear cache for each app.


    4. Set auto reboot daily from Device Care settings – improves long-term performance.


    5. After 300–400 charge cycles, battery health naturally drops to 80% – heating and reduced performance can be expected, especially after 1–2 years.


    6. For heating and lag, go to Settings > Apps > [app name] > Battery > Restrict background usage for apps that don't need to run constantly.


    7. Don’t use phone while charging. Remove the case, don’t place it on soft surfaces like pillows, and avoid using it under load when plugged in.


    8. Turn off Auto Sync, WiFi, Bluetooth, and GPS when not needed.


    9. Disable or uninstall unnecessary Samsung bloatware – even system apps can be disabled if not used.


    10. If the camera lags, go to the camera app settings and clear app data – it resets the camera without deleting your photos.

    If this helps the please select helpful of as solution on this comment
