battery hammered when playing game

[dan55]

pretty sure my pix2 uses more juice than my sony prem ... even thought that has a bigger higher def screen :/

Some games can be rather heavy with battery consumption, especially 3D FPS ones, like PUBG, etc. Nothing unusual here. No idea what a "sony prem" is though, although I've never seen a Google Pixel series phone either.

...the sony is a premium model - 4k screen etc

the games doesnt appear to be that fancy or fast

That's a smart TV isn't it? I've seen those. Quite a large item, runs on mains and not batteries usually, and somewhat different to a phone.

I've not seen any Pixel phones, because I'm in China.

Even if the game is not too fancy, but I guess there is still processing, display, sounds, etc. going on, which will consume battery anyway.

yes can seem like it ... ahh i see right ... no definitely a smart phone

oh right - was confused as this is in the pixel part of the website

yes very true ... the pixel screen aint the best ... or the battery :/
