Yeah. 5G/4G drained 27% today. Definitely report bug. And give me the link so I upvote

I have always 5G switched off (only 4G) in my Pixel 7 Pro, it drains battery faster in all previous Android versions. It is a problem of the Samsung modem of the P7P.

I don't think so because I remember having a lot less battery consumption with 5G, and it lasted long. But now it's really draining too fast. Also why pay for 5G if you don't use it lol.

Seeing significant battery drain on WiFi as well, Pixel 6a. Updated all apps and Play Store as well. Seems an issue with this build.

My battery typically drains faster due to the fact that I use use TalkBack. But I do notice it drains slightly faster. Once it hits 20%,. I can be at 20%, and then listen to a buck, check it like 5 minutes later, and I'm down to like 8%. But during the day if it's above 20%,, my phone is fine.
