As usual if you’re looking to have any security (Verified boot) GrapheneOS + Pixel phone is the only options. I really don’t get it how come people in places like this are okay with having a phone with all their personal data and logins without verified boot. Stolen / lost phone and game over.
Getting a Pixel just to have Graphene is not always an option. At least not a sensible one that factors in everything that’s important when buying something.
My current phone still runs perfectly fine, so getting a new one feels like a massive waste, too.
I’ve been using a Pixel 6a with GrapheneOS and the battery life is just fantastic. Sometimes I can go for a whole week without charging, but this is the exception. But under normal circumstances, I still get like 3 days of battery life. You don’t need to be worried about that at all, battery life is even improved on GrapheneOS compared to the Stock ROM.
Dang a whole weeks seems like you’d have to not use it at all.
I have an s10e currently (been using it for over 4 years now) and the battery is shot. I’m at like 30% by noon. I use a lot of Bluetooth throughout the day at work. Basically 10 hrs of Bluetooth a day.
I just never see pixels on the top battery life for phones round up and that make me nervous.
I want something that will be at 30%ish when I go to bed.
On average I get like an hour and a half of screen time per day. I use my phone to message people on Signal, I connect it to my bluetooth earbuds and listen to music or a podcast when I go for a run and I occasionally like to take photos. I don’t waste my time scrolling through TikTok for 8 hours like many other people unfortunately do. One week of battery life is pretty rare, but it has happened before. As I said, usually I get 2-3 days out of it when I it charge up to 80%. (charging up to 100% is bad for battery health, so I try to avoid it). I’m sure you will be fine. You can get a Pixel, install Graphene, try it out and give it back and receive a refund if you don’t like it. That’s the good thing about Pixels, installing a custom OS doesn’t void the warranty or anything like that. You can just revert back to the stock OS and everything will be fine.

And and what happens to your data if your phone gets stolen?
I need a new phone but I want one with a good battery.
Looking at pixels for gOS but worried about battery life compared to something like Moto Edge+ or Oppo 11.
