I can’t for the figure out how to get more than 3 hours of SOT. My battery is at a 100% health according to accubattery, and it was just replaced a few weeks ago so the battery is for sure good.
Whenever I check accubattery, it’ll give me a claim of how a full charge should give me 9 hours of SOT, but 3 hours later my battery is at 20% or lower. I add up the usage per app and it doesn’t add up.
I’ve got adaptive battery, adaptive connectivity, and adaptive charging turned on. I’m only using LTE since my carrier doesn’t do 5G either way. I’m usually at 50%-80% unless I’m out in the sun. I’ve tried resetting the learned behavior for adaptive battery as well, but that hasn’t changed anything.
It’s not even like my units defective because the one I bought first had a defective fingerprint sensor and had the same battery life.
Give me your secrets people, I just want my phone to last me the day.
7 pro since launch day here. Always had really disappointing battery life.
I used mine for very trivial tasks. On WiFi virtually all day, indoors most of the day. I use my phone casually–no video games, no video chat apps. I will take it off the charger at 7:45am and use it for MAYBE 2.5h of screen time over the course of 11-12h during the day and I’ll be at 35% battery left. If I do ANYTHING just shortly taxing and I have to charge it midday.
Google soc and hardware choices are very power inefficient.
My wife has a 7a and also had disappointing battery life.
Google isn’t on a good path so far I’m my opinion.
For the first time I’m completely disinterested in what Google is doing with their pixel phones. I went to an S23 ultra and battery life has been nothing sorry of amazing, and the concerns I used to have with camera on Samsung phones isn’t really an issue to me anymore.
Accubattery SOT estimates are highly inaccurate, don’t let them raise your standards to much
Look at which apps are drawing the most power and remove them. Also, try turning Airplane Mode on when you’re on WiFi, since the cellular modem uses a lot of power.
I’m on the latest beta and I feel like battery life is improved
Does the camera still work as well as on the factory image? I’ve been debating playing around with graphene for like a week now but that’s my biggest hangup. Don’t want to wipe my phone just to have to put it all back to factory.
What’s with the downvotes? You can install the same Google Camera app and just revoke a lot of the unnecessary privileges.
And I definitely agree with the user above. Battery life is definitely incredible with that OS.
Probably a stupid question to people that use the OS. 🤷♂️ Or they all have a bunch of free time and enjoy spending it re setting up their phone lol. One last question. Will I lose googles call screening? Idk if I could leave that again 😂 left it for a bit when I went to an S21 but couldn’t handle all the spam calls 😂
