Yes....correct.....I'll update my post
I believe its on P2XL??
UPDATE: Yesterday my battery seemed a little better as I had 4 SOT by bedtime with 20% left over which was a noticeably decent improvement over what I had been getting since the 8.1 update. Right now I'm seeing 3hr SOT and battery is at 50%. A huge turnaround for my P2. I should easily be able to get 5hr SOT with some left over. I'll be in bed for the night before I hit that, this is great! I've probably run Gservicefix about a dozen times in the past week or two. Maybe it finally took or it's something else. Hoping this is not a fluke.
My Pixel 2 was getting bad enough after 8.1 that I was threatening a factory data reset. My phone must have heard me..... Battery straightened out last week and has been fine. Standby has been better and not noticing near the drain while in use. Not sure what happened but it has definitely improved.
I've turned off the "Ok Google" function as a test, and I'm actually getting amazing battery now! I never found it a real problem before, but today it's definitely been better IMO.
For some reason it won't let me add an attachment but I'm currently on 40% battery with 4hr26 mins SOT and 18hr 16min since last charge.
Usage includes streaming Spotify, watching YouTube videos, Tapatalk viewing, Facebook, Instagram, Tune In Radio listening on Bluetooth speaker, texting throughout the day, 1 quick phone call and all mostly on data during the day and on wi-fi once home in the evening.
Here's a couple of times from the 64gb model. Haven't checked with the 128 cause I figure it's gonna be the same.

Wow. What am I doing wrong? I've lost 8% from full charge in the last 60 minutes. That is only 19 minutes screen on time, 8 minutes of Snapchat, and a tiny bit of reading & sms. Mine is horrid and I can't figure out why. Brightness is approximately 20%. Normal Pixel, but even if yours is the XL, I'd be happy with a good chunk less battery performance than you're getting.

No launcher, all stock.Turning off "OK Google" doesn't actually turn off "OK google". When I turn mine off I can still say "Ok Google" and it'll launch. How exactly did you turn it off? Are you using Nova launcher?
