Hi
I have had the Note 4 since December 2015. I really like the phone but the batttery life is dire. I am constantly having to make sure that is charged and lately I have missed calls and the odd photo due to a flat battery.I confess I have Bluetooth swiched on all the time for my Pebble watch but I can't be the only one who has this.

Let the battery drain down, switch the phone off and charge to full. It takes a couple of cycles to optimise the battery.

I can get a full day of usage without problem and I take so many photos here, review,edit, tether the notebook etc. Have you had the recent update which improves battery as well as security?

Yes this looks like the update I installed last night - you have been on this a lot longer. I notice I get a full day inthe house when I am not having to use the Network connection ( except for calls and txts).

My BT is also on for connection to my Gear 2.

Hmmmmmm I have never had 2 days even from day 1. Not really, I got rid of the Facebook widget. I use IMAP email so that needs to sync freqently- I use the prettier Outlook app which runs in parallel with the default email , I am not sure I can't remove the default email app as I think this handles the syncs.
