@AndyCr15 has the regular 4, not the XL.

It really depends on each individuals personal usage so would take any SoT stats with a pinch of salt.
ahh cool, so over 6hrs SOT is good going.

It is impressive although I'm fairly sure he said the AOD is disabled. I'd be interested to hear how much of a difference that makes.
Haha. To his defence there was no onscreen notification. Its just that when I saw his always on display it looked odd and old font etc. That was enough of a give away for me to pursue further lol.Jesus, that guy must have been utterly utterly clueless. Even my Mrs knows when she's got a SW update! LMAO
It makes a noticeable difference with my 4XL.

I remember reading AOD generally drains about ~1% per hour. Over the course of a day, that's a quarter of your battery. Mind you quite like it so I leave it turned on (2XL though).

Nope, AOD is on. As I said, everything is basically on. And to confirm, yes, standard, not XL.

Currys. And £679 for the XL.
I must be blind but I'm in Currys now and it's still £679. Even on their website.

Great price
Haha, I saw that this morning. Bit harsh but I do understand his reasoning.
The phone did not mean the hype, at all. I also agree that it is too expensive, even at the Black Friday price I got it for. The full retail price is a **** take. I've not had the issues he has had with motion sense either, in fact its been great here. I use it in the bathroom with a BT speaker and skipping tracks while your hands are wet is amazing, and the 90Hz issues have been largely fixed, on the XL anyway.

So my Pixel 4 turned up yesterday from Curry's. Here's the mess when the brightness gets lower. (around 20%)

After the debacle I had with the Pixel 3, not sure why I bothered!

Are all updates installed? That seems odd. I just turned brightness all the way down on mine and scrolling long emails on dark background was fine.
I was impressed with the battery on my standard 4 yesterday. Went to bed around midnight with 55%. Phone did come off charge quite late around 11am but I took plenty of pictures, videos, surfed internet and sent loads of messages.
