▲ 85 ▼ Google leaves older Pixels behind for Android's long-awaited Battery Health menu (www.androidauthority.com) submitted 1 year ago by limerod@reddthat.com [M] to c/android@lemdro.id 18 comments fedilink hide all child comments TL;DR Android’s long-awaited Battery Health menu has arrived in Android 16 Beta 3, but only for the Pixel 9 series and the Pixel 8a. Google has confirmed that older Pixels, including the not-so-old Pixel 8 and Pixel 8 Pro, will not receive this feature. The decision is due to unspecified “product limitations,” leaving aging device users without means for native battery diagnostics.

Because they're so cheap I have 3, one for testing, one as a hot spare. Still cost less than a new phone. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] 7empest@beehaw.org 2 points 1 year ago Yeah the 6a will be my spare to my 7 pro permalink fedilink source parent
