    Pixel 5: I don’t know if it’s better than android 11. But android 13 in the last months was running a bit worse than 14 for me.

    Standby battery drain is unstable for me though. 1 night got 1% drop in 7 hours. Most nights much more.

    So in the end I have to test 100% to 1% to get something more accurate.

    Accubattery last full cycle 100% to 1% reported screen on 12.2%/h screen off 0.8%/h (please note that some of my user apps like Instagram/tiktok are disabled in background. But others like WhatsApp are always running and I know that whatsapp is a festival of partial wakelocks).
