>What has changed in battery technology recently? I have no idea. I imagine most of the improvements in battery life stem from them being able to fit larger batteries in smaller packages along with hardware and software optimizations as well as improvements in cell reception. It could also be my usage. I listen to a lot of music during the day and perhaps the larger batteries are just able to accommodate me longer than the smaller ones. I loved my Nexus 6 but I doubt I could still be using it still today so I am impressed. Can I ask what your reasons are for not having upgraded it? I generally upgrade my phones bc of the battery but this time I hope to just get it swapped out in a year or two.

I generally upgrade my phones bc of the battery but this time I hope to just get it swapped out in a year or two. My main excuse is I got it a year after it was launched on a black Friday sake so I want it to last one more year. On top of that I got to use a Samsung Galaxy s7e for almost a year in 2017. Mainly, it was probably that I didn't want to spend the money. I can make the excuse that I an saving money toward a new desktop computer but I've been giving myself that excuse since before ryzen launched so I know it is just an excuse in telling myself. My main use apps at the moment k9 mail, Google voice, slide for Reddit, and Mozilla Firefox. The camera on the Nexus 6 is horrible for current year. Perhaps I'll finally get a new phone this year. Perhaps if xiaomi releases the poco phone F2? 4Ah battery sounds nice.

  Not sure on the camera or rest of the specs, but the moto G7 power is pretty cheap I think and has a 5Ah battery. Haven't got around to reading reviews since it launched the other month.
