                    nick, 13 Dec 2023how much for pixel2 ? working fine?. where are you?Battery is draining really fast. I know it needs a battery change but I imagine the apps updates also demand higher power from the device. The dong that converts usb to headphone almost never worked pratically since day one. The USB-C connection works pretty badly as well. I have to almost align it with the moon in order to work. Some chargers wont work at all and just won't charge fast. Really slow charge in spite of whatever is the power of your charger.
                    If you can get pass that, the camera is still pretty solid. Its weakness is starting to show year by year but you can notice how slow the camera race has gotten.
                    Tough being limited by is 64Gb space as well.

                                Battery Life is decent. Turn on battery saver to extend battery life. I keep mine charged between 10%-90% & the battery lasts longer. Most ppl have access to charging in their car, at work, at home, charger packs etc. I easily get a full days use from one charge.
                                It's a great phone, light weight & easy to carry with me, great sound, great screen detail, etc.

It runs smoothly and has that tiny screen that is missing in 2023, considering that 6 inch is the smallest screen available. The 2700 mAh LG battery is also something unacceptable and LG batteries are not known to have the longevity of a Xiaomi and oppo battery. But this capacity of 2700 mAh is way too small to consider buying this phone. If I have to buy a phone, used or new, the 4000 mAh battery is the bare minimum because bigger batteries now have more charge cycles

                                      Anonymous, 18 Feb 2023What about the battery life in 2023? Can it go for a day?Probably not if you are using an original battery considering the age of this device. But having replaced the battery of mine once a couple years ago, I can say from experience the answer can be yes if you do that and don't use it too heavily that day. It's still fine as a daily driver if you don't care about software updates or install eg Lineage. Not motivated to replace it yet personally anyway.
