just buy phone with unlockable bootloader and good custom ROM community and you can have this even now, just not officially from manufacturer
anyway in Pixel case the phone will have already after 2 years completely unusable battery, not that it would be satisfactory for heavy user even out of box
- pizza234 6y ago"Just not officially" is a simplistic view. You don't know how long the phone is still going to be supported, and you have to have the skills and the patience to go through unofficial documents and procedures in order to make the whole process work. I know because I'm in this situation, and I do support this approach (to "fight against the market"), but it's not an easy feat.
- Godel_unicode 6y agoMy pixel 3 XL, which is coming up on 2 years old, gets me through the day just fine on the original battery.
- Markoff 6y agowell yeah, if you don't use your phone it can get you even through two days, turned off even longer
- Godel_unicode 6y agoNot sure what that statement has to do with anything, but good point I guess?
- Markoff 6y ago> gets me through the day just fine just because it gets YOU through the day, doesn't mean it gets others, people use phones differently, for starters their phones have different Screen on Time per day, so while 1-2 hours is fine for you and gets you through the day, for others 7hrs is not enough and phone will die for them before dinner
- Godel_unicode 6y agoI average 6 hours of screen on time, easily lasts the whole day. You should be careful talking about the performance of a phone you haven't used, I don't know if you've heard but people on Reddit sometimes don't tell the truth...
- timwaagh 6y agojust try that on a modern pixel and you are quite likely to introduce unstable behavior. its really not recommended
