Can confirm my pixel 6a battery went to dogshit this week. Almost feels like it’s more the update than anything with the battery… but I guess I’ll be learning to switch battery and finally going back to lineageos
Yeah they sent a communication to pixel 6a owners saying that they will force an update that will reduce battery usage.
In case you did not know, Google is providing a 100$ check, or 150$ discount on their store for 6a owners.
I’ve had my Pixel 5 since around the time the 6 came out. The battery life isn’t great, but I can get by just fine. Maybe Samsung phone batteries are better, but before this I had a Samsung Galaxy. The battery on that was no better. I know this is anecdotal, but I don’t plan to switch when my 5 croaks.
I had the 5a I I only found out it was super defective after the screen died from a small drop, apparently it’s one of its common defects, aside from the motherboard failure. I replaced with a non iOS, Google or Samsung phone

Yup, got my 100$ yesterday -it is anti-lawsuit stuff but will cover the cost of fixing a new battery
Whoa that happened to the 6a as well? That whole thing with the 4a was a disaster.
The 5a was worst, I had to replace it after a small drop, and I wasnt going to replace a screen that’s almost as much the phone
My 6a is over 3 years old and still strong. I had no Samsung battery that lasted under a year and a half.
GrapheneOS though.
Their obsession with the tensor AI chip is very strange
