My Axon 7 consistently recharges in 1h10 min. My SoT is 7h15 on WiFi.at 30% auto brightness but as with all OLED displays it varies based on the average picture level. It will be worse on white or near-white content (APL near 100%) where LCD's shine but very good on videos (APL around 40%) and near black content (where OLED truly shine).
It should be noted that despite ZTE's claim, the battery capacity is 3140mAh. This was proven in a tear down and it is also confirmed by apps (both theoretical and estimated).
Considering this, the battery results are excellent.
Battery is good overall, just like the camera it is not a selling point of the smartphone but it is good. It is just there is hardly any alternative for QHD display + great stereo front facing speakers + daydream compatibility in the market right now.
I personally prefer this to the Note 7 in every day use. But I am using SENSE launcher for blinkfeed.
