In standby mode, the PlayStation 4 uses up to 50% of its battery life, which is pretty impressive considering how often it’s used. In fact, according to Sony, standby mode is even more important than use during gameplay because it helps keep your console running smoothly and without any issues. So how much power does the PlayStation 4 use in standby mode? Well, according to Sony, standby mode uses up to 10% of your battery life. So if you’re using the PlayStation 4 in standby mode for an extended period of time (say for hours on end), you may be looking at losing some battery life in the process.
