Not only does the battery on the #AsusZenfone6 last more than a day, it doesn't fail in extreme cold either, allowing me to take pics on the 2 coldest days last week (close to -20°C). Previously my #Pixel2 would've rebooted twice and still refuse to take a pic.

@cybette nice to have a phone with a battery like that what do you get for battery life on the FXTEC device?

@jameshjacksonjr

the #FxtecPro1 has a smaller capacity battery compared to the #asuszenfone6 (3200 vs 5000mAh) so we can't compare them directly. However the Pro1 handles a full day's use just fine, if you keep the screen brightness somewhat low (it's a relatively bright display so you don't need it at high brightness setting anyway)

the OS matters though. #SailfishOS gives the best battery life, followed by Android / #LineageOS. However, #UbuntuTouch has problem with battery drain when idle.

@cybette same on my pinephone ubuntu touch has huge battery drain.

@jameshjacksonjr

ah good to know, so it's less likely a hardware issue. they need to work on power optimization for Ubuntu Touch.

@cybette so I flashed Mobian OS to my pinephone and now my battery life is good

@jameshjacksonjr

that's great! 👍👍

@cybette pinephone isn't daily driver ready for most part for most people but for price is good hackable phone all their tech is good priced for playing on

@jameshjacksonjr

indeed, if I get one it will be for playing around and hacking on, but not for daily use. still, we need projects like this and hope they do well and pave the way for more open devices!
