    That sounds good, the issues I’ve seen are mostly on a and non-Pro series, which I guess have smaller batteries?

      I have a 7a. The battery life is enough to get Mr through a shift at work and a half hour charge 12 hours later gets me through the rest of the day.

      I got a case with a magsafe on the back and bought a little magsafe power bank. Wireless charging with it puts my battery at a standstill, and I can use it to charge my ecig and my headphones, so for £15 it’s useful.

      They also have smaller screens which decreases the power consumption, typically balancing it out. The power consumption during screen-off would be the same, so there would be slight hit there from the smaller battery.

      There’s also difference between the Pixel 8 and older series in that the 8’s Tensor is made on a smaller process node which makes it more power efficient than 7 and 6.

        more power efficient than 7 and 6.

        Yes, those seems to really have the bigger issues on that regard
