I completely disagree with this articles assessment. I own the Pixel 7 pro. In fact, I have owned every Pixel since the original Pixel XL and it is well-known by anyone who has owned Pixels in the past, it takes a few days for the AI and ML to learn how you use your phone before it can best optimize your battery usage. I received my Pixel 7 Pro almost a week ago, and the first three days had poor battery life. Now I'm getting a day and a half battery on my Pixel 7 Pro. Yesterday I took my Pixel 7 Pro off the charger at 5:00 a.m. and went to bed last night at 9:00 p.m. and still had 64% battery. In fact, there's even a YouTube video on YouTube with a battery drain test comparing the Pixel 7 Pro to the iPhone 14 Pro Max and while the iPhone 14 Pro Max did better, the Pixel 7 Pro lasted for over 9.5 hours watching YouTube videos constantly. The iPhone 14 Pro Max did a bit better lasting for 11 hours watching YouTube videos constantly. For a phone that's $200 less. I don't mind losing an hour and a half of watching YouTube videos.
