2018 Google Pixel 3 and 3XL...😗🎉😵

[limmk]

I using both pixel 3xl and s10+ the pixel really losing in ram department . hope P4 can upsize the ram a bit

Sent from Samsung S10+ using GAGT

Samsung, Huawei, LG needs more ram cos their own native apps are running in the background.

Take for example samsung galaxy s4, some features like hover preview, smart pause, smart scroll etc. These features keep listening to user inputs and hence 'eats' ram. Optimization them well, might just uses lesser ram.

Not say pixel don't have this issue. Even you turn on now playing, the phone is always listening to the environment, so is also using ram. Just how efficient the ram management each manufacturers manages on each of their operating systems is important.

Even now when i'm paying pokemon po and switch to take a photo, the app have to reload.

Also want to add that ram management isnt just on the OS side. On app side, app developers can handle behaviour when user leaves app or switch to another app. If the app is designed to flush memory out and reload when app goes from active to background, then it is perfectly normal for app to reload. And is not a problem of phones lacking ram.

Can look up some simple tutorials on android app development to learn more.

Earth Day 2019

Hooray. An old issue I had with my 6P now is appearing on my 3 XL. After using the phone for a few phones, the phone drain was only 3-4% overnight. Just last night, it's 10% overnight, and useless google battery stats cannot tell me what the hell is draining my battery overnight despite switching off location already.

Bloody battery screen is empty with nothing running according to Google.

You are finally back lol. Maybe observe for another night to see if the problem still occurs? For me usually I put airplane mode at night probably only drop 2-3%?

I really don't want to have to do something like this. Never had to do this on my Samsung phone. The battery usage is worthless too:

Airplane mode already dropping so much?

If no airplane mode, then it will easily be 10%.

I'm getting used to the battery life on P2. I will just charge as and when I like.

Maybe observe another day to see if it's still the same lor. The breakdown in the battery usually can't tell us crap.

Furthermore, Android's standby has never been a strong point for them as compared to Apple. iPad can charge 1 month don't charge still have battery. Android tablet probably die long time ago liao.

The thing is this suddenly happened on my phone after months of very stable usage. Even if it was caused by a rogue app, I got no way of telling since the battery usage graph is bloody garbage.

I just give up battery life on Android.

I agree Apple is more superior on this aspect.

This is the trade off for flexibility with battery life.

Yeah even if it's rogue app you won't be able to tell also since there's nothing there. Hopefully everything goes back to normal!

Haha for me I go best of both worlds. Don't need to keep comparing. There's pros and cons for each platform, one suited for certain tasks when compared to the other. Everytime like that compare very sian one

One of the pixel also went flat, faster than the rest with 40% left. The battery stats said last used was 55 days ago ...Wt. It can easily be fixed by rebooting the phone. There are many things that can cause the battery to drain faster than expected. Now, i do this once a week on mine.

There are so many things that could affect it.

Show "Now playing"
Google assistance.
etc.

How about user battery charging pattern? I charge my phone when it reaches 20 to 25% and will charge to 90-95% before unplugging.

My room has unstable Wi-Fi connectivity. Thus causing Wi-Fi to be turned on and off, eating up battery.

A lot of factors.

I checked my ASUS router log, it's been stable, never reboot. Then the problem is even if it's google assistant draining my battery, it doesn't show in the useless battery page. I really wish they made some improvements to that damn page.

before i sleep i will usually close all recent apps. this is to prevent any background data from running.

woke up with 3% drain from my pixel 3 nonxl.
