The early numbers posted by mine are quite encouraging. That said this is without cellular connection as I haven't transferred my eSIM to it yet.

I don't have any stat but it's ending up at the same battery level at the end of my work day as my 3 y.o. s20fe. Same usage pattern and everything.

That does look quite nice, the reviews talking about 4-5 hours of SOT on the non-pro scared me a bit.

I don't have a pixel yet, but my oneplus 8 uses 13%/hour with the screen on.

By the way, you gotta love accubattery. So much data from a simple app, I just wish it showed the averages over more than 14 days.

4-5 hours of SoT is nonsense. I saw some controlled browsing tests from Tom's show over 8 hours. You could drain the battery in 4-5 hours. Especially if you're using the camera or doing AI image editing. Those functions consume dramatically more power than reading Lemmy, watching videos or talking on the phone.

I've been on Pixel since 4 and battery has never been an issue for me. That said, I keep my location off unless I need it and this is the only social media I use.
