My battery is lasting about 30% + longer with GrapheneOS. Plus my phone heats up less.
I find that it heats up quite easily, maybe it's just that the pixel isn't super good. I'm on a 7a though
People in this thread mentions setting the phone to only charge to 80%, it will hell extend battery life.
Settings -> Battery -> Charging Optimization
Already done! But it's a bit annoying that it can't be set to higher values if we want to
Interesting. I find keeping my screen on, keeping it plugged in, and not putting battery saver can heat up my phone some.
Battery saver is probably the most important step
But I'm surprised that the phone doesn't have a powerful processor/chip
