So to your point, I did another overnight with my bluetooth and VPN on. That's my usual walk around set up. Obviously there was a bit more pull, but this is about what I expect. I was seeing between 6%-8% on my Pixel 2 on 8.0, but my Pixel 2 on 9.0 was draining 12%-14%. So the Pixel 3, right now, is about standard for me.

At this point, I've expressed my hate for adaptive brightness on the Pixel 2, but I thought I would try it on the 3 and start fresh. So far I've disliked it. Disabled it and control it myself and what do you know... My battery is lasting a bit longer. O can already see the difference.

Three hours of screen time before reaching 50%.. this is my best yet and I think has to do with turning adaptive brightness off.

I got 5.5 hr of SOT before I plugged in. That's like 2 hours more than I'm used to
I'm going to see how it goes tomorrow without having adaptive battery on the whole day

Pixel 3 XL battery Life
So I feel like my battery life on the Pixel 3 XL is just Okay. I can get me through the day, but the battery life on my Pixel 2 XL was noticeably better. I have had he Pixel 3 XL since Oct 18th (Almost 2 full weeks). Now I'm wondering if this has anything to do with it I transferred all the data from my Pixel 2 XL via the USB cable and startup wizard when you first setup the Pixel 3 XL. I'm wondering if I would have better results by wiping the phone and start fresh without any data transfer and just re-install my apps from scratch, thoughts?
BTW my battery life is 19 hrs i did have it at 21 hrs and 30 mins 2 days ago I guess I been using the phone a bit more and the adaptive battery learning went down a bit, but I get around 4.5-5 hrs which isn't bad. On the pixel 2 xl i was getting about 5.5 hrs and the battery would say it would last me 1 day and 3 hrs which was about 6.5 hrs more. I know the Pixel 2 XL had a slightly bigger battery as well. Just curious what others are getting and your thoughts if you think it's worth resetting the phone to stock and starting over with no data transfer. Thanks in advance.

Re: Pixel 3 XL battery Life
I feel the same. I don't have any concrete evidence and haven't really compared screen-on times and such, but it certainly feels like my 2XL got better battery life than my 3XL. Maybe that's due to Ambient display using a lot of battery on the 3XL, or at least one of the reasons? I never saw Ambient display in the battery stats of my 2XL. Not once. But it's consistently #2 on the list with my 3XL, right behind the screen. One of the various minor bugs I hope get addressed in future updates.

Re: Pixel 3 XL battery Life
I'm not using ambient always on display on my pixel 3 XL nor did I use it on the pixel 2 XL and I can def notice a difference enough to annoy me.

Re: Pixel 3 XL battery Life
Mine is just starting to get better. Activated mine on the 23rd. But I had my Pixel 2XL so set up and optimized that I'll give this one a little time to settle in.

Re: Pixel 3 XL battery Life
Well there goes my theory, haha. Maybe I'll try turning mine off for a day or two and see if it makes any difference for me.I'm not using ambient always on display on my pixel 3 XL nor did I use it on the pixel 2 XL and I can def notice a difference enough to annoy me.

Re: Pixel 3 XL battery Life
My 3 XL is easily lasting a day, so I'm not going to give up my Always On Display.

Re: Pixel 3 XL battery Life
Mine still lasts all day, too, but I'm certainly ending the day lower than I was with the 2XL. Not by a huge amount, but it's noticable.
