@djsumdog Sounds about right. It uses CPU for encoding (though it should have dedicated hardware accelerated encoding, so it's not as bad as say x264), it keeps screen awake, it actively writes in memory. That's gonna be a lot of energy usage for a phone.
Yea, it's pretty good I can get ~4 hours of straight video (I bet 4k wouldn't but that much less since it does use hardware encoding). I was more commenting on that was the only time I seriously used the phone. I use to read on the phone too before I got a much better e-reader. Now I just use it to read a synced book if I'm waiting in line by myself.
It's interesting being out at a bar and looking around and seeing how many people just constantly look at their pocket machines. I only constantly check mine if I'm waiting for friends to show up so I don't miss a text. But often I'll be at a party for hours and in a conversation say, "oh let me show you a picture I took ... oh wait, my phone is in my car .. or out of battery .. or in my car and out of battery"
