Hello, I am trying some of your advice because my brand new Pixel 7a has been draining a lot of battery recently. I love the phone except for that issue. When I first got it, it did not seem to drain as fast, but for the past couple of weeks it can go through 30% of its battery while idle. I had it in ultra power saver mode with all notifications turned off while I was sleeping (also night mode for screen) and it went from 66% battery to 33%! I really hope Google releases a fix because I have to recharge this phone twice a day right now and I am not a heavy user! I think their idling software should be examined first for a potential patch. I miss my 300 € Xiaomi which could last for three days 🙃
One thing which drastically reduced my overnight battery drain is me turning off the always on lock screen. Earlier it used to go down by 20-25% overnight but now it's 6% at max.
im having battery issues with it. I contacted support and they wanted me to send in my phone to fix the issue, really not wanting to send it in. hopefully there will be a new patch
@@pratham2333now in 2024 with my pixel 7a I've had for 6 months and recently got android 15 and my standby time is about 46 hours but if I turn battery saver on a airplane mode it will drop 1 percent per day it's really good now
This phone is universally panned for having the worse battery life on a Pixel device. Even compared to the older Pixel 6a. So, my question is will thrse help get me up to 5 hours screen on time and still have at least 20% before midnight on moderate use?
Hopefully these steps will help. Only setting i really want to keep is force max refresh rate from dev settings so my phone is always 90hz. What's your opinion on 5g? I changed my preferred network type from 5g to LTE recently but I'm not sure if that'll really help or if switching back to 5g will be okay for the battery.
After flashing custom rom chime build device(Redmi 9t) it doesn't boot it goes black screen how to fix this please help. Btw, I'm using orange fox recovery android 13 hoping you will help me
@@munchy_cool Yeap, iphones specially are overpriced devices, Samsung too, but at least iphone doesn't overheats, and S23 is a good smartphone for $700. I like pixels cameras and UI, but google should be care of little details and fix once and for all, the heating and battery drain of their devices.
i thought we were talking about battery drain ....which both samsung and iphone have suffered from, only difference is Apple fixes it with an emergency update and Google just slacks at it
@@3lectronic0Google came out with their 1st phone in 2016. Iphone came out in 2007. They had a 10 year start on Pixels so they're fantastic phones for just releasing a few years back.
No bro! Processor efficiency is terrible. It charges really slow. It takes more than an hour and a half and SoT is bad. I get like 2-3 hours. Look for other options in that range.
Today now at 39°c it's charged 35% in 80 minutes, few days ago it's charging 3% in 30 minutes and 10% in 40 minutes almost. What's going on, is this normal? I've contacted Google via Facebook page, and last I told them, Good job Google.
there's a ghost in your phone ..lol battery charging slows down as it reaches 100% ...so you need to see that starting and ending battery percentage as well when you are trying to compare charging speed at different temperatures
Does it heat a lot i have the option to buy it for 27000₹ should i buy ? I am a heavy user i use media more like around 6 hours a day should i buy this or go for one plus 11r
Well, at the end no User want to investigate a lot of time in the smartphone to save battery power and reduce the functionality of the smartphone! Google work on it!
Can you make a video about the heating problem and network reception issues in indoors after the May security patch update.(you've only made video about the video recording after the May security patch) And compare the same with pixel 7. Here in India people are discussing a lot about those issues. It may be a deal breaker if they don't have a fix. Thanks in advance.
Nah this isn't the problem. The problem is the phone is at 12% and rapidly drains to 8 or 5 then shuts off completely. It refuses to turn back on if i try to power it up but if i plug it in for even 2 seconds it turns on like it was never off. No clue what the hell causes this problem but I'll be trying to trade in my pixel for a Samsung on marketplace apps because Galaxy phones never gave me these problems. The ONLY saving grace for any pixel series is the camera. I've had battery problems with the Pixel 3 and Pixel 6 as well so it seems like a brand problem and cell phone shops I've spoken to are all aware of this
having used a pixel 6 and 7 for almost 6 months, i dont think it holds true for Pixels ... Google does f up but they fix it ..but your experience can be different from mine
@@munchy_cool I won't argue with these facts , those who are smart really understands and knows what these companies are doing, even iPhone becomes slow after 3 year OS update😂And no I don't get fooled anymore by these companies in name of stupid updates which really does is downgrade or even makes your phone/camera dead in some cases😂
It's funny to see that you recommend not updating a Google Pixel device, when I take it for granted what you know you will receive updates every month. You are in the wrong place.😉

Having the exact same issue

if i am able to do all things internet smoothly on lte, then i personally would disable 5g
Device health services is also a huge battery drain 🔋
How to disable it?

no idea on devices i dont hv ..sorry
Just throw it into dust bin
Spending $500 on a pixel 7a, and then disabling functions or looking for tips on how to avoid heating, battery drain, etc, is masochism.
forget $500 7a, youtube has videos for $1000 iphones and $1800 folds as well..

@@munchy_cool iphone improved a lot with the 13 and 14 series, in fact, the 13/14 pro max has the best battery life and the S23+/Ultra, too.

Getting This at 35k
Should I Go for it or suggest any good phone around this price. ( Under 35k)

@@Techdash. any suggestions around this price range
Go for OnePlus 11r

Using 7a since 2 months, baught it for 18500 with 97 battery health from a friend.
How do you check battery health
Good job! Thanks
Thanks for watching!
Well, at the end no User want to investigate a lot of time in the smartphone to save battery power and reduce the functionality of the smartphone! Google work on it!
they do ...
Nice. How much does your battery last?
full review linked in description has the numbers in the battery chapters
Thank youu
Welcome 😊
You missed disabling wifi scanning and bluetooth scanning
first point is wifi
Ohh...the name has changed, using oxygen OS 12. It's name and option is different from stock Android.
Can you make a video about the heating problem and network reception issues in indoors after the May security patch update.(you've only made video about the video recording after the May security patch)
And compare the same with pixel 7.
Here in India people are discussing a lot about those issues. It may be a deal breaker if they don't have a fix.
Thanks in advance.
i dnt have any such issues ....
Brother my mobile network taking too much battery ...about 22%
22% in 1 minute or 10 hours, that's so unspecific 💀
Thinking of getting this. Are the battery drain issues fixed? And the heating issues?
It has both problems. It has nice aspects to it, but the heating and battery drain are the two big negatives.
Nah this isn't the problem. The problem is the phone is at 12% and rapidly drains to 8 or 5 then shuts off completely.

Your battery is dying. Replace a new one
do u recommend this phone
for me its been working fine ..so i do
every single setting is True
The battery is draining because of the latest update. All this is a waste of time. Just wait for the next update and that should fix it
👏👏
Very simple solution - DONT UPDATE OS
lol..this is NOT MIUI ...
@@munchy_cool Still all Android OS has same trend, If you update you will face multiple issues and that's what called planned obsolescence 😂
having used a pixel 6 and 7 for almost 6 months, i dont think it holds true for Pixels ...
Google does f up but they fix it ..but your experience can be different from mine
@@munchy_cool I won't argue with these facts , those who are smart really understands and knows what these companies are doing, even iPhone becomes slow after 3 year OS update😂And no I don't get fooled anymore by these companies in name of stupid updates which really does is downgrade or even makes your phone/camera dead in some cases😂
