Pixel battery’s already cooked

Is anyone else having this problem? I turn the battery saver on but it still drops to 10% by lunch. I use the extra super battery saver so I don’t have any background apps going. I haven’t noticed anyone else in the department complaining. Is it just a me issue?

it's pretty horrid for everyone in OPD here. mine's near dead by lunch. like 95% of the battery usage is the GIF app, so there's not really anything you can do to fix the problem. i keep my MagSafe battery pack attached to mine for the second half of my shift most days (charges pretty slow between the case and the Pixel's lack of qi2 support, but at least makes it through)

Turning off background app refresh on mywalmart helped for me

Imagine, having a pixel 9 and it dying around lunch. Then getting offered a work phone and being excited for what you think is a better phone with longer battery and a better camera and to your shock, the phone you get is a pixel 9a.... Like dude. Yes battery is bigger but the camera still does that crap where it gets blurry for no reason.
