Galaxy Note 10 Plus - Battery Life...???

Hi Folks.

I was getting dazzled at the specs of the Samsung Galaxy Note 10 Plus, as listed here , but I was disheartened by the (for me only) 4300 mAh battery power.

Can anyone here give me any indication of how long the battery will last and for what sort of usage conditions?

I recently had a phone with a 4200 mAh battery that had to be charged sometimes twice a day, especially when being used as a hotspot, but for about a dozen calls a day and about the same number of pics/videos. At present I have a new 5000 mAh phone which I only charge about every 1.5 days, and then it's only down to about 60%.

The reason is I'm thinking of getting a refurbished one of the Note 10 Plus, for half the new price and a year's warranty.

Thanks,

PS: I forgot to add that the Note 10 Plus is good up to Android 12.

Samsungs are pretty good at battery life. Of course, if you buy new. After a while, the battery will go down and if you have it replaced with any non-Samsung battery it will never be the same and you will be charging twice a day.

The new one will last a day. I have an s21 ultra with a little bigger battery and I don't even check my levels, no matter how long I am outside, it has plenty of spare power in the evening and whenever I come home, I put it on the wireless charger.

Thanks, Adam.

I might not go down the refurbished path, because you just don't know the history
