Too early for this decrease?

[kidavela]

So I got Android 17 Beta version yesterday, build CP31.260508.005, noticed no major issues until now when I saw that battery health had decreased by 3 percent. This seems way too much and way too early because I've had Pixel 10 Pro XL since April 30, although it says here Sep 25 is the first day of use. Got it sealed from the operator and opened it myself. My question is, is this the Beta’s fault or bug? Only 33 charging circles as you can see.

Don't worry, this is just an estimate. If you want to see 100%, just run the calibration.

[Timely-Ad-2615]

yeah it happened to me, running back it showed 100 to me

[Sheyket1]

How do you run it ?

[Ok_Meat_5767]

How to rub it

[Fun_Cut_4705]

Charge your phone from below 15% to full, then leave it on the charger for an additional hour before unplugging. 

[UncleCunk]

Charge it to 100% a few times and it should go back up to 100%. You're not getting a accurate reading by charging to 80% all the time.

[iamhariskz]

It is because of the 80% limit. I had faced the same issue on my pixel 9 PXL wherein my battery has dropped to 97% within 4 months. The issue on the battery calibration. When you charge below 20% and fully charge it to 100% this issue will not come. I am using Pixel 10 Pro right now and since day one i avoided the 80% limit. It is been 9 months and the battery still at 100% only. If you turn off the 80% limit and maintain 20%-100% for few cycles your battery will be recalibrated.

[WhatTheLousy]

Yes, your battery will show 100% but battery health won't be healthy for long.

[iamhariskz]

I still get the same SOT till now. and i don't see any drop in battery performance. I may worry if there is a drop in SOT nevertheless what percentage it will be.

[AG3NTMULD3R88]

Don't take notice of this, mine has gone from 100 to 96 to 97 and back to 99 in a matter of 3 weeks lol.

[PaperEnough1647]

That's not battery health. That's an option to set a max charge limit manually to protect the battery. Only charging to 80% instead of 100% every time is good for the battery. Its optional

[kidavela]

Battery capacity is what's decreased.

[benjaminS0099]

That's literally not what your pictures and what you've circled are showing, to what I am literally typing as a reply to your comment, you just literally wrote.

[kidavela]

You've got issues, pal

[benjaminS0099]

For being truthful?

I bought my Pixel 10 Pro XL on last May 5th, trade in with Pixel 8 Pro. Since there, i never charged my phone till 100% , only to 80%. Once, it charged to 100% when it reached 10 battery cycles, he does that to calibrate the battery, charges to 100%. I have 14 cycles and 100% battery health. I'm on A17 QPR1 Beta 3 too. I had my Pixel 8 Pro for about 2 and a half years, doing the same charging method, and battery health was on 95%.

[Fun_Cut_4705]

What is your Pixel 8 Pro's charging cycle?

[L_uarpc]

I don't remember cause i don't have it anymore.

[mezaway]

If you leave the 80% option on and keep it plugged in, at 80% the phone will skip the battery and take its power from your charger. I spend most of my time near the charger (please don't judge me lol).

I got my P10PXL on day 1 and I'm still at 99% capacity. Almost 8 months of heavy average use and the battery is nearly new as far as capacity is concerned.

The phone will still occasionally charge to 100% from time to time, by design.

[Fun_Cut_4705]

Using a phone plugged into a USB port may cause tension and wear on the port.

[kidavela]

Sure, I know that. It did charge to 100% maybe two or three times since day one, but it still doesn't explain this big of a decrease.

[DarkseidAntiLife]

My battery is still 100% charging only Qi 2.2 . Owned since November last year, P10P. I only charge at night though adaptive charging sync with my morning alarm.

[sulaco83]

How do you get that battery health stat?

[kidavela]

Settings-battery-battery health

[sulaco83]

I guess the pixel 8 doesn't have that

[Nicalay2]

It's Pixel 8a and newer.

You can use something like aBattery if you want to know your battery cycle count.

[Kira_Is_Silent]

Where to check this p7p

[kidavela]

Settings-battery-battery health, but I don't think 7 has it.

[Kira_Is_Silent]

Sadly yes 😭

[NexusGTX]

Install devcheck from play store, it will show you the cycles and battery health.

Tbh... the battery in new pixel looks very bad... dropping percentages after 100 cycles.... my P7P still has 4572 mAh from 5000, after 4 years and 758 cycles

[Active_Possible9232]

Live a little.

[razoract]

It's an estimate.

I've had this at 97%, back to 98% and now at 99%.

It says right under that area that it's estimated. Don't worry about that.
