My battery drain list, using Xperia Z is as follows:
(H:MM, or D:HH:MM)

Screen 54%, 4:02 on
Opera 23%, CPU total- 1:30, CPU foreground 0:36
Cell standby 9%, 1:04:32
Phone idle 7%, 1:00:27
Android OS 4%, 0:13
Android System 4%
Phone 2%

Is this normal?

What do you use Opera for? If you're watching videos or playing games it'll drain your batteries faster.

Not playing games or videos, just browsing forums, googling things. Tvtropes and wikipedia mostly.

It depends on how much you use Opera compared to other apps...

I use Opera most of the time. If I have 50% screen brightness (less being impossible to use outdoors where I spend my time) for 5 hours, I read on Opera for 90-95% of this time.

It can also depend on signal strength via wifi or 3/4g, and whether your phone has to use extra (battery) power to boost it if you are in a weak signal area or happen to be moving around a lot, thus causing the signal strength to fluctuate.

No matter what else I do, I think Opera taking from 15-20% average is too much. Especially when I only read (mostly) text webpages, having flash disabled (not installed).

I updated my Xperia S to Android 4.4.4 Paranoid ROM and Opera is doing very smooth

I will come back to Original Android 4.1.2, which does not have any bugs and has a lot of features.
