Welcome to today’s daily kōrero!

Anyone can make the thread, first in first served. If you are here on a day and there’s no daily thread, feel free to create it!

Anyway, it’s just a chance to talk about your day, what you have planned, what you have done, etc.

So, how’s it going?

Hmm yeah I’ve read about it not having that great battery life, however coming from the S9+ that only has a 3500mAh battery, I’m hoping it’s a bit better than what I use currently. It is a pre-owned phone with supposedly 100% battery health, but it’s also from one of those physical stores that primarily sells second hand and refurb phones/tablets with a 1 year warranty. So hoping there’s no major issues.

Is GrapheneOS worth using if you do use a bunch of google services? 🤔

Oh you should hopefully notice the battery jump!

I would say not. Android, and especially Android on Pixels, is a Google ecosystem. When you don't use many Google things like me, it's hard to get away from them on a normal Android install. The OS is endlessly sending data about you to Google you're forced to have a Google account, etc.

When you are already using a bunch of Google services, Google already has all your data and you're gonna like how your Google account is integrated into everything. So unless you are doing it for fun, I'd probably stick with the stock OS and get the experience they worked hard to design for Google users.

Thanks, I suspected so. I'll see how it goes!
