I really want this. But at the same time I'm really worried about how much battery life this is going to drain. If it's less than 1% every 24 hours I'm ok with it. If it's more, nope.

Google in the past years is focusing a lot in adding more and more services while forgetting that what the people just want is to have a phone that lasts the entire day and can fit in normal pockets.

I have the pixel 7, and I have found that not having any friends, and surfing the net on other devices really helps the battery to last 2 days!

I have a Pixel 6 I think, for work. Pretty much only use it for 2fa at work, so it lasts for several days.

Lol. I'm pretty sure there must be something there draining the battery that can be disabled. (Maybe preference of LTE over 5G, stuff like that).

I have a Pixel 5 and I always had full day battery life (I'm not a heavy user). So good battery life.

But I used to charge it every 3 days and this year on the 2nd day I need to charge it.

And the battery menu can't be trusted. It doesn't even update quickly.
