Pixel 8 Pro AccuBattery stats (lemmy.ca)

60% in 20 hours with 6 hours of screen-on time. Not bad. I expected lowe screen-off power consumption. Instead, it looks like the screen-on power consumption is lower than my expectation.

How does your average look like? That's mine, best Pixel battery performance I ever had.

I don't have a good average yet, I've used it for four days only. The first day it was all installation and setup so the average is skewed higher by that. The last 2-3 days however it's been clocking numbers like the ones I posted so the average is trending in that direction. Here's how the average looks right now:

And here's what the %/h look like at the moment:

BTW, I use Shelter to sandbox apps that I want to never run in the background or access my data. I also restrict background usage for apps I trust but don't want to unnecessarily run in the background - e.g. Jerboa. This probably helps with screen-off battery usage. Apps that wake up to sniff around can't do it.

Cool beans! I use IceBox & Shizuku for freezing Instagram - no other apps that I want to be freozen tbh.

What reaaaally kicked my battery performance since Pixel 7 Pro is this adb script, which I run every other week: https://www.reddit.com/r/android_beta/comments/14yh35l/this_is_how_to_force_optimize_android_beta_or/

It does some obex magic, resulting in more phone storage usage of apps but with significant impact on performance and battery consumption.

I literally did that exact optimization a few days ago on all of the family's Pixels after flashing the latest OTA on them. 😆
