I posted recently about my struggles with my new 7a battery. I installed android 14 beta today and going to bed after 4 hours SOT I've got 50% battery left, the difference is ridiculous.

From my reading I'm led to believe Google will find a way to lose the gains by the time the release is final but I have my fingers crossed, it's turned the phone from a regret to a sound purchase so far.

That's awesome! How much did you use to get before the update?

I wish I could give you a figure but I'd always have run out of battery by the same point.

Let me know how you get on. The phone has been feeling much cooler too which makes sense.
