the main camera's OIS motor is broken and the battery has 550 cycles on it
so i am doing what i can to extend its life, since i am broke i cannot afford a new phone that isn't a shitty motorola with no ROM support
i dont like dark mode but i do have the screen set to 25% brightness (10% in power saver, which triggers at 40% battery)
5G has been disabled, LTE is good enough and has better coverage anyway
the first gen Tensor chip is notorious for being power-hungry along with its inefficient Exynos modem. for some reason Google put two ARM Cortex-X1s (big fat cores, most phones only have one of those) in the CPU cluster. this, combined with the chip being produced on a horrible 5nm samsung node make it a fat bitch to deal with
i dont even play mobile games
