@eganonoa My battery will drop from 100% to 90% over night, so I think is your battery. You can go so far as buying a phone charger or a stick that will show you how much current your battery draws, do a bit of math and see the real capacity of your battery.

This is how it looks my battery graph, and I was night shift

@cliffcoggin Thanks. Great. I will definitely put in the spare battery I have.

@poVoq Super useful! You are 100% correct, what I have is MHL. Couldn't for the life of my figure it out. Had the external display switch on, tried every HDMI cable I could find around the house. Saved me from going crazy. Thanks!

LTE is draining battery a lot on the N5, but over wifi (at work and at home) I have about 36 hours from 100% to 19%.
I switch to flight mode when I'm sleeping 8-9 hours a day.About the dock there are some known to work with the N5, IIRC the one recommended is from Microsoft.
If you intend to buy one I might be able to dig out the info from a Q&A early this year. -

@poVoq Ooops my bad you're right.

N5 is presented as "experimenting convergence" on this page : https://ubports.com/fr_FR/devices/promoted-devices
So there should be an "how to experiment it" tuto somewhere...

Thanks all. Changed the battery. Has been run 15 hours since (not in airplane mode but syncing in the background on wifi) and battery is now at 42%. So that's about 26 hours expected with light usage and probably about 2 full days worth if put in airplane mode over night. Really impressive.

@eganonoa You could mark this as solved then if your happy. Use Topic Tools ask as question then change to solved. It all helps others find answers. Thanks
