I was full sure I would see battery improvements moving to pixel. Given its their platform and their chipset, I dont understand why it is worse than the midrange samsung I had.

Like way worse, I struggle to get to the end of the day on days I dont drive.

Can anyone explain or do I have an issue.

    Pixels have been affected by higher battery drain since the March 2026 update. Google has acknowledged the issue. No fix has yet been made.

      I have the 6a. It was getting hot quite often. Then I learned they could explode…! Im not getting injured because of my stupid phone. Had to get a new phone.

      The pixel line sucks in my opinion.
