There's also a extra dim setting available. That helps as well. Can find it in the pull down selection settings
This is SO helpful, thank you!!! I’ve looked at some of these settings and wasn’t sure how they all worked. I love how this gives you so much control. I think I’ll have to watch this again when I have more time to go through and look at these things on my phone while looking at the video. Great job.

Another good battery saver is turning off camera permission in the messages app. At least I've noticed a big difference. I don't really send much pictures or take pictures on the spot when texting so it was pretty much pointless for me to have the camera at the ready for the times I do send a pic. I just attach a pic to the text. Before I turned it off, my battery was draining a lot faster. It seems like the camera app just runs in the background when enabled.
Great information awesome thank you very helpful God bless you.

By restricting an apps background usage it will in fact use more battery because the app is not held in memory and when restricted needs to completely open from closed and will therefore use more resources. Android system will do a good job itself when left on optimised to handle apps in memory and close when needed. I used too think the same as you before I discovered what I did.
I also did the Battery Restriction on the apps, and on some apps, like banking apps, I turned off "Mobile data & Wi-Fi". This doesn't allow the app to run internet connectivity in the background unless you open the app. I have no need for my banking apps to run internet connectivity in the background and this is also good for security to prevent your banking apps from emptying your bank account in the background by some malicisious software.
Estimated delivery of December 8-9th bought on Google store on November 3rd. When I get it I'll be happy

my battery life 'evened out' after about a week. I assume due to adaptive battery and such
I am a little extreme ,but If your rooted (Free) warden app and disabled trackers and loggers on certain apps.
Is there any option on Google pixel 6, during battery charging,will stop when it goes to 80% ?
Thnx. I have been struggling with my battery. I have my Pixel 6 Pro for a week and battery has been terrible. I'm coming from a Pixel 5. So I'm trying to do everything to make it better. I don't want to have to send it back. Got almost 3 weeks to figure it out...
60hz makes my phone feel like it's about to die but I'm going to try all of this and more and see if it works
Adaptive brightness was always a battery killer btw.. It use the sensor all the time and its bad.
Great tips. On my Pixel 6 I Turn OFF 5g. And always keep it OFF. 5g wasted quite a bit more battery all the time, so I keep 4g LTE selected under network preferences. I only use 5g if I'm out and about and The 4g LTE service is not working.

Thanks for the tips. I have the Pixel 6 pro and I get such good battery that I have never run close to draining the battery. I have Accubattery installed and it has an alarm set when I reach 80%. I generally take it off the wireless charger when the alarm sounds and I still have no problem getting through the day. Most of my phone's use is playing audio through a BT speaker or headphones. Since the screen is off most of that time, it doesn't use that much power. I HATE adaptive brightness. I've seen the screen on my Android 10 phone (Oneplus 5T) dim while I'm trying to read it. I just turned it off on my Pixel 6 Pro. I also turned the screen timeout to 15 seconds with attention on.

Yeah, turning it off doesn't really matter to me because I'm on Wi-Fi so much that it's not a big deal. I think 5G is frankly overrated. Everything I've been reading seems to revolve around the fact that Google's choice of their 5G modem is perhaps an older one that isn't as efficient and that's what's causing some of the battery drain issues.

On my phone's busiest days, I go to bed with around 40% battery. Pretty amazing.
i thought it wasn't ideal to keep your phone on the charger overnight because that would charge it to 100% and charging it to full was bad for the battery. i've been charging my phone up to only around 80%. does this phone have something that prevents it from doing that?
@Silvera-Avian

Have a look at the Adaptive Charging setting - it only charges your phone in time for your wake-up alarm in the morning so it doesn't spend a long time at high charge level throughout the night.
I have done all these things but the battery still not good. The network standby is draining 25 to 45 % of my battery every day. I am not using 5G? Have you had any issue with the network standby?

The real problem is this. The 3aXL had better initial battery life then this new 6-Pro. It's atrocious. Older phones stop lasting as long and that was the reason for my to replace it with this. Love Google but so disappointed in this shit. Heck i didn't even realize it had the edge screen that Samsung went away with! WTF the edge screen is another point of contact to get the shit to crack and break.
It's disappointing that all these modifications would need to be done to get better battery. It's such a big battery for it to drain as quickly as it does. My Pixel 5A lasted way longer and I sort of wish I had kept it. Understandably the 5A doesn't have that strong a processor but being Google's own tensor chip I would have liked to have seen them optimize the battery usage. Perhaps a future update will better this.
Pixel 6 users like if this video really works😂
This phone is crap going to hand it back. Had a p30 for year's and was constantly on it and it never died was still on 60% battery when I went to bed. Pixel 6 is dead by 4 pm needing charged twice a day a day bollocks
you think the pixel 6 has bad battery life, you never seen samsung. my s22 plus goes from 80 percent to 70 percent in about ten minutes. thats with background apps closed, hz display is 60, battery saving is on and everything. DONT get samsung.
