With wifi calling turned on I go down typically 10% per hour, with it off I go down 1%.  I am using an S7 btw.  

 

I have seen reports of this over on the T-Mobile US forums also, wondering if anyone here has this issue also.

Hi

 

Can you please go into your phones battery stats if you haven't already just to double check what's using your battery. 

 

One thing to particular look for is mediaserver which uses a lot of battery and has been connected to using Google Chrome. 

 

I can not answer specifically about WiFi calling but I would assume as an extra resource it would have some impact on battery life.

Samsung Galaxy s²⁴ Ultra 512gb.
