MODERATORS
What phone are you using? POCO F3
Are you happy with it? What are its best and worst qualities? Works and does everything i need, the camera is decent so i am happy about that.
Which phones have you had previously? Which were the best and worst of the lot? Hard to remember, however I will never forget my old OnePlus One... basically started this whole path of Android customization I took.
How often do you upgrade to a new phone? Honestly whenever my old one dies. I am not rich and phones are quite costly these days.
What other Android ecosystem devices do you have? Watches, headphones/earbuds, etc. Just my phone
Do you also use any Apple products, or are you Android all the way? (And/or Windows, Linux, ChromeOS, etc.) Just my phone, however I do have a server at home running Debian 12 and my desktop running Windows 11
Are you experiencing any noticeable battery drain? It's driving me crazy. Like i get that it's a 120hz display but it has no right to draw this much power
Not really, but then again I am using crDroid and microG. i used to have a crazy battery drain back when i was using gapps tho.
Hmm, gapps might be the leading cause, yes. Thanks!
Just to give you a bit more info. I am on 20% right now, with 7hrs 3 mins of screen on time. 1 day, 9hrs and 48 mins phone idle. not charging in between.
Before installing my current system I would be lucky to get the day, i would charge my phone every night.
microG has been a blessing, for me everything works (signal, whatsapp, banking apps) just as if i had gapps installed and the battery lasts roughly double.
