How are you getting 8 hours on screen time? I'd like to know your settings/brightness etc.

I've gotten no where near that

The phone does indeed go to 8 hours or more of on screen time if you continue to use it from 100 percent all the way down to maybe 3 percent.. But if your phone is on standby, I noticed a 1, 2, 3 percent loss every hour... In reality, with normal usage you'll get about 5 to 6 hours of on screen time. I tested this about once or twice... My settings are not so complicated... My brightness is on 50 percent but when my phone battery reaches 40 to 30 percent, I lower it to maybe 10 or 25 percent... I do in fact use Sony Power saving mode... Stamino mode is on (I disable all apps except for hangout dialer when screen is off)... Low battery mode is on and location based wifi is on.. And I check the restrict data consumption.... Hope that helps.
