My battery sucks after this update. Once I get down to 30% it free falls.
And no licensed repair places near me have batteries in stock
I switched my 6a to GrapheneOS a few weeks ago and the battery lasts like twice as long, its unreal.
i originally wanted to get pixel, after the 5A died from a fall, but i went with OP instead better battery life, dont really care about the photos that much.
