See that's the thing with the pixel. When I used my s7e I studied my battery life on the daily. Downloaded all these battery monitoring apps...Kept dark backgrounds, shut off Bluetooth scanning, changed my high accuracy location of gps only...Etc etc etc.hmm maybe I will give it a try. speaking of battery life are there any tweaks you can share that I should be making to get the most out of the battery? I already use the adaptive brightness and have my screen timeout after 30 seconds. I am not saying my battery life is bad. I just always like to get the most I can out of it.
With the pixel, nothing even needs to be tweaked. That's the beauty of the phone. No one tweaks an iPhone. A phone shouldn't have to be tweaked. I found myself shutting off things in the s7 (always on display) just to save me battery and to me that's not fair.
I don't even use adaptive brightness on the pixel, I have no shut anything off..I have Google now fully running. I have all white text message backgrounds and white keyboard (it really looks like an iPhone!) And I get a solid 4 hours SOT. I never got that with the s7e. I'm sure the XL will give you 5 hours
