Not sure if this is the correct place to ask, but I am using GOS on my 9 Pro and getting very mediocre SOT, like 5hrs. And that is WITH the following modifications:
Play Service has unrestricted battery for notifications
Everything else, if applicable, has restricted battery and no background network.
I have 2 profiles but only 1 is active, the Owner one. The secondary i rarely use and I make sure to “end session”.
The main Owner profile runs default launcher, browser, some messaging apps, youtube, some google stuff, proton stuff. VPN is not on. Display is high res (lowest setting). Smooth display is off. All other stuff like wake on lift, tap to check, AOD…etc. are all OFF.
What is your SOT and what settings did you make?

much thanks to @gary_host_laptop for the logo design :)
SOT is a useless stat. Battery drain is determined by the type of apps you use and the way they consume resources. Playing a GPU intensive game for 30mins will probably have a much greater effect on the battery than someone watching YouTube for 3hrs.
The responses you’re getting also are about uptime instead of SOT. Getting a real apples to apples comparison will be very difficult without comparing with someone with the same hardware/software/apps/usage pattern.
