Battery Life Thread

Down to 1% on my 2 XL. 8 hours 20 minutes SOT! Over 19 hours off the charger. A mix of wifi and mobile data. Mostly surfing online. Brightness is about 40%. Didn't use battery saver when under 15%. Bluetooth was on all day and connected to my Garmin watch for notifications. Haha, no I don't look at my phone this long everyday.

Wow, that's very impressive!

I haven't really had a normal day with it. but one thing I can point out. The camera is a battery drainer! Got like 3-4 hrs sot taking pics all night.

Hopefully that should improve with 8.1 when they turn on the Pixel Visual Core chip Supposedly compiles HDR+ images 5 times faster using 1/10 the power.

Yep, 3 straight days with 6+ hours of SOT with Pixel 2. This includes GPS, YouTube and camera. Not babying the battery at all. Going out of my way to use the phone. Im amazed how efficient this phone is. If I go easy, I can probably get 8+ hours SOT.

So assuming you sleep 6 hours a day, you're regularly spending over one third of your waking time staring at your phone? Good god that's a lot of screen time!

Over 4 hours of SOT with 50% still to go. Regular Pixel 2. Mixed 4G and WiFi usage. Adaptive brightness on. GPS on. Bluetooth off. AOD off.

Adaptive brightness on

Set at what %? That is impressive battery life.

 

[Cakefish]

Mostly around 0-50% with adaptive brightness on.

 

[dsignori]

Mostly around 0-50% with adaptive brightness on.

thanks. Though that's a pretty big swing. At 50% brightness that is super impressive, at 0% not really ...

This is with the Pixel 2 (not XL). Auto brightness at 40%. Very content.

I'm loving this battery life. This was not my most productive day, but almost 24 hours without a charge is awesome.

To all the folks with these great battery life days .. Do you have the AOD and the "Now Playing" music thing enabled?

 

[Beretta96]

I do not have either enabled. Neither interests me more so than trying to save battery life.

I use the now playing thing. I turned off AOD though. It was on be default when I got the phone and I kept wondering why the clock wouldn't go away lol
