First of all i would say THE ANDROID PIE FOR NOKIA 8 IS OF NO GOOD.
There are no much improvements other than the cosmetic changes of pie ui.
Battery drain on standby is so huge. So huge that i lost around 20 PERCENT of battery while doing nothing. APPS ARE STILL RUNNING IN BACKGROUND EVEN THOUGH ADAPTIVE BATTERY IS TURNED ON. the older battery saver on oreo 8.1 WAS FAR BETTER.
People who deal with this software upgrades, do something ASAP. I lost an opportunity to do a presentation today because of this severe battery drain. SOMEBODY DO SOMETHING PLEASE.

Something we all really need is battery.
No battery problems. 9 hours on standby, screen usage 2 hours and 6 minutes. Still 66%.
Battery protection (see @marsic) on. I stopped this app some time ago, but it starts again after a restart.
(Alarm went off this morning.)
Perhaps a good idea not to stop Battery protection - Nokia may have changed its misbehaviour in the February update.
NOKIA TA-1052 on version 00WW_5_140
My phone is all day on mobile data 4G, second sim is on 3G.
Bluetooth is connected to MiBand3 and hands free.
If I was on WiFi will do easily 4 or 5 hours SoT with the first 50%.
I found a way to keep the battery drain to a minimum... I hope this helps for you. I downloaded an app called greenify from the playstore and this force stops every apps like the oreo version of nokia 8 did. Somehow i can maintain the drain to a minimum but i wish if things were back to normal like oreo, as it was headache free and the apps only launch when we need them. Still the standby drain is an issue...
Is this batter drain for you?
2 hours only on WiFi and rest of the day on 4G mobile data.
After the February security patch everything for me is perfect.
