Title. It seems excessive. Even when I fully power it down it tends to drop a lot more than I'd expect.

Thanks.

The OLED model has a special Bluetooth module that can wake the system from standby. This causes excessive power drain. You can try disabling Bluetooth if you're not using any Bluetooth accessories.

Bluetooth is disabled, as is the Wi-Fi antenna. Which I always do with any devices I turn things off that I don't need.
