Google Pixel 11 series

Standby drain still bad at 10-12% on WiFi only airplane mode despite disabling less active apps' background data usage.. will give it a few days of "learning" to see if it gets better.. or OTA update..another issue is if you are using the same two Sims as dual SIM... When disabling one and enable again.. it will keep asking you relabel and set up preferences again.. quite dumb..I can understand if it's a new SIM.. but same SIM that I have been using?? Not smart..

That's quite a huge idle drain wow....

Will off WiFi and battery saver tonight try...I suspect it's the AI draining the battery in the background.. similar to iPhones iOS 26 apple intelligence bodai boji drain 20% a day doing nothing lol..

Anyone facing latency/slow connection issues on tethered device via pixel 11 pro?? Tested same issue on both 5 and 6ghz network.. phone fast 5G data connection so dont think is telco issue..

Graphene OS may not support Pixel 11 devices due to lack of support for ARM hardware memory tagging:

"We have a partial port of GrapheneOS to the Pixel 11 series after a week of work on it. We're unable to complete the port due to lack of support for ARM hardware memory tagging in software, firmware and near certainly hardware. It appears Google cut an important security feature to save money.

ARM hardware memory tagging (MTE) is used by GrapheneOS across the entire base OS including the kernel and every standard base OS process. It's only temporarily disabled for a few device-specific processes. It greatly improves protection against nearly all remote exploits and many local exploits.
.
.
.
We strongly recommend against buying Pixel 11 devices. Pixel 8, 9 and 10 have much better overall security for GrapheneOS. Pixel 10 is cheaper with similar hardware and MTE. Pixel 11's Titan M3 should improve BFU security for users without a strong passphrase, but losing MTE craters AFU security.

We haven't determined what to do about this situation. It may be best for us to skip the Pixel 11 series devices. We can shift our focus entirely to the upcoming Motorola devices instead. Pixel 10a was really a 9th gen Pixel, so hopefully the Pixel 11a does the same with 10th gen and includes MTE."

Not that it affects regular users like me but it's good to know.

thought iOS 26 is related to the liquid glass etc

Shall try it manage to get pixel 11 at 800

that one can just remove transparency... main culprit is the apple intelligence crap lol.. good price.. but pixel 11 u prolly just notice better battery.. less heat/no overheat.. the cameras are pretty much the same as previous models as the UW and tele lens are very small..

Why Shopee don't sell OLIVE color for the fold?? It's only black... but Google Store SG clearly has Olive.

Olive seems to be google store exclusive.

On the smaller Pixel 11 Pro, for two days, I got 4 hours screen time (mainly from watching videos and surfing the net) and still got 50% left.

Very surprised that it’s way better than my previous Pixel 10 Pro XL.

Wah you really hooted uh

Do you miss the bigger screen? I cannot sia moved from 8 pro 6.7 inch to 9 pro 6.3 inch, next gen straight away back up 10 pro XL.

the bubbles multitasking feature is actually quite huge for pixel users imho.. can have 5 active bubbles and 16 dormant ones floating at the side.. can use simultaneously with 2 app split screen ... switch betwen apps is pretty satki...something like windows alt tab very fast..

But on slab phone still very cramped to be really useful for me.

on the smaller 11 pro i just use it to swap betwen apps very useful leh.. i didnt even bother testing the fold since the processor is so weak.. lol..

Bubbles ok la I mean like split screen and bubbles together very cramped. And bubbles like buggy for me as not all apps are well supported. Sometimes some bubbled apps will freeze when I try to dismiss them or minimize them.
