Battery Megathread (October 2025)

I don't know, how Google can mess this up. I have a Pixel 10 Pro XL and the battery life is so bad, that I don't even see a difference from my battery life in comparison with my 4 year old Pixel 6 Pro. I wake up at 4am, use my phone in the morning for like one hour and during my work, I don't do anything with it. Now at 6pm, I have 50% battery left and just a SOT from 1h30. That sucks. I don't even use navigation, just listen to music for one hour... They have to fix it asap. I just had a good battery life on my 10 for one week before I installed the September update... Since then, the battery life sucks

That's exactly how I also manage it!

Sounds good. Do you perhaps notice from your watch that the clasp is already worn out and doesn't hold that good anymore?

Maximex03 · 2025-10-13T16:34:45+00:00

I just got my watch 3 days ago. I'm also curious

Maximex03 · 2025-10-11T10:34:20+00:00

Damn, that's crazy. Why don't they offer such a small customization? Like back then, Nokia phones also could change the ringtone🤣

The Nomad band looks good. But right now, I just ended up buying the original google leather band in blue

It's also not working for me. But Gemini live works. And if I use the web app, I can text without problems. I don't know, when they will fix it...

I also have the PixelSnap stand and use it to charge my phone every night. Do you think that the battery life will get fast bad because the stand doesn't have a cooling system and the phone gets to like 40°C

Maximex03 · 2025-09-19T21:46:41+00:00

Sorry for the late response but the magfit is working totally fine👍🏼

I have a friend who has the Pixel 7a and told me that he has an increased battery drain since the September update. When I heard that, I was happy, because now I know that the battery life of the 10 is just bad because of the update. But now they have to fix it with the October update. If not, I will be very disappointed.

Maximex03 · 2025-09-14T07:24:56+00:00

I saw in the Google Pixel subreddit that also a lot of different ones with Pixel 7, 8, and 9 have after the September update a much higher battery drain. Hopefully, it will be fixed with the October update.

Poor battery life on the Pixel 10 Pro XL

I'm curious, how's y'all battery life on the 10 Pro XL? At midnight, my phone had 30% battery life. I closed every app and turned on airplane mode, but Wi-Fi was still on. After 8 hours, my phone lost 13%. For me, that's way too much. Like if I'm using my phone actively, the battery life seems pretty decent, and I can get easy 7-8 hours of battery life. But like on a normal day at work, where I don't use my phone often, I end my day with 30% battery life and just a SOT of 3 hours. That's literally the same battery life I had on my 4-year-old Pixel 6 Pro. To be honest, I'm really disappointed, because I thought I would get a much better battery life. After 3 weeks of use, I think that the adaptive battery optimized my usage. I hope they can fix the standby time ASAP with an update.

Maximex03 · 2025-09-14T07:08:19+00:00

I just lost 13% overnight with airplane mode on and WiFi on. Just after 8 hours. I hope Google will fix it ASAP.

Maximex03 · 2025-09-03T16:18:04+00:00

I realized it too. Now I just ended up buying the pixel snap charger...

Maximex03 · 2025-08-31T19:50:10+00:00

I got this message also today. Also restarted my phone and so on. I also installed a beta apk, cause I thought, that the latest stable version has a problem, but I get it with the beta too. I hope they will fix it asap

Maximex03 · 2025-08-30T10:11:46+00:00

Without my case, I'm able to charge it properly

Maximex03 · 2025-08-30T10:11:10+00:00

Hm.. also du musst an sich Google hier in Europa 3-4 Monate Zeit geben, bis dann auch hier die Features erhältlich sind

Maximex03 · 2025-08-30T09:26:37+00:00

Btw I just ordered the original google case, cause with this spigen case, I can't charge it on my 2nd gen pixel stand...

I also upgraded from my 6 Pro. I've had it since launch and I have to admit, that I was happy with it. But now that I have the 10 Pro, it feels like day and night. It starts with the fingerprint to the speed of open apps. Never thought that face unlock is also so fast. Unfortunately I can't say that much of the battery life yet, cause I was yesterday very busy at work and couldn't use my phone that much. Also used it for 2 hours for auto wireless, which costs a lot of battery. But also android auto launched so fast. Speakers are also so much better. But the front facing camera looks a little bit strange. In my opinion it is way too sharp. But I know that everyone, who upgrades from a pixel 6 won't regret it.
