Must be just your carrier that makes it easier. I'm half afraid to attempt it after the experiences I've had in the past. Lol

What carrier are you on? I'm thinking the phone transfer side-by-side should work on any carrier as it seems pretty much like if you were taking a physical SIM and transferring it to the other phone.

I will say battery life on this has been pretty bad for me compared to Android 16. I used to hit 7 to 8 hours a day of battery life.

I know I don't really use that stat either but so many people do. Typically at the end of my day I don't feel the need to recharge unless it's a heavy day of usage.

But here lately I have had to recharge in after noon then evening again.

I pulled this off the charger at 9:53am and it 4:04pm with 82% and 57 min on screen.

Something is hitting it harder now then before. I may try to factory reset. I wish I would have done that before converting to esim now. Sigh

Yeah, I've been none too impressed with the battery life thus far either. Thought maybe it had to settle in, but so far I'm seeing a pretty decent drop with the same usage. I usually charge to full around 6:30PM and was easily making it to 6:30PM the following day, but have found myself reaching for the charger to make it through now.

Weird, I've had no issues with battery life so far.

Yeah I'm hoping the next release will address the battery

The one thing I do notice about this build is that my wifi dropped a lot and then I find myself on 5G.

 

[Bkdodger1]

I've had no issues with Wi-Fi and battery is about the same to me but I always do bump charge my phones

 

[YankInDaSouth]

Yeah, Wifi been fine here too.
