    Do you use ram boosters, task killers and similar junk apps?
    No junk apps. I know those things drains really really fast, and phone gets hot.

    Had a pixel xl that does same thing too.


    Maybe it's because I don't keep it charged the healthy way?
    Idling colour developers are not healthy developers.

        For the past few years I have been buying Xiaomi.
        This smartphone lasts 2 years, then I switch for battery life and performance. I pay around € 130-150 each time and that's great. I avoid spending € 400 for a smartphone that will still last 2 years.

            Apple got caught a couple of years ago including a daemon in their latest, at the time, iOS that only ran on older models and caused the battery life to be reduced.

                Pretty lowbar even for the nut company whose phone's prices are sky high.
                A tree is known by its fruit, a man by his deeds. A good deed is never lost, he who sows courtesy, reaps friendship, and he who plants kindness gathers love.
                Blessed are they who can laugh at themselves, for they shall never cease to be amused.

                    Like the saying you can compare an apple devise to a golden butt plug.
