I’ve had to move to a Pixel 7a as a surprise replacement. I’m content enough with it, performance is acceptable, but battery life is worse than I’d like. How do people get by with a 7a? Buy a bunch of wireless chargers? Buy a magsafe case? I don’t see any battery cases so I imagine that’s not an option. Any recommendations would be great, thanks.

    This actually isn’t only true for Google. On most devices you get better battery life on Stock software.

    You can search for “GrapheneOS battery life” and see lots of people say it’s worse than on stock, but also some that say it’s better. It might depend on if you’re using Sandboxed Google play or not.

    But battery life on LineageOS definitifly is an issue and always has been. It’s probably mostly because it’s kernel isn’t really optimized for the device
