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.
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
Experiencing it right now... Still no battery update for my phone, but I am currently away on vacation and am dreading the moment it will become a fancy brick
Yup, got my 100$ yesterday -it is anti-lawsuit stuff but will cover the cost of fixing a new battery
