A mess of its own making: Google nerfs second Pixel phone battery this year

People don’t upgrade phones every year anymore—longevity matters.

I wonder if there is something subpar about whoever Google is getting the batteries from for the A series phones.

My next phone will be a Fairphone 6, even though they’re not officially sold here in Brazil.

And when that one breaks… Maybe no phone at all.

When that one breaks there’s a good chance you can replace just the broken part.

Honestly at this rate my next phone will be a feature phone. There is a lot I love about my Poco X7 Pro, but also a lot that I do not. And a lot of things seem to be getting worse.
