"several days"

So the same as most other modern phones under light use.

Not the same. E-ink displays only require power when you turn on the backlight or things change on the screen. The screen on time should be higher compared to regular LCD/OLED panels.

e-ink makes sense for like a book reader. But how often do you do that on a phone vs everything else.

Plus it's slow to update. This will not be a great experience for running Android.

It's a bizarre experiment, and the other specs are not very minimal at all, despite the name.

My Galaxy S3 lasted About a month one charge as alarm clock, until the battery gave out a few weeks ago. The Poco 1 lasts about a week, despite having more capacity. Standby power got worse the last 10 years.

That's because it's powering a much larger screen + possibly background stuff

Display is not used in standby and services is only core stuff. But that core stuff has gotten more and more.
