I like to use screen on time as a representation, I get 4-6 hours of screen on time normally, I'm a fairly heavy user so it will last me just about a day or a day and a half, but if I was a normal user probably 2 days.

you should probably install a custom rom on it and remove some permissions from Play Services. that's how I did. any Cqm-based rom should have this feature, I personally installed Resurrection Remix, it's great and very customizable
