The Pixel 9 series has way better battery life, but it also delivers improvements to charging. One of those improvements is that the Pixel 9 has higher requirements for fast charging, helping you better know if your charger is truly up to speed.
I just got a new phone (reluctantly) and it feels like 90% of the "features" are useless marketing gimmicks.
Most people still use their phones for very similar purposes to 2016 or even 2012. Instead of providing properly optimized software and batteries that last weeks, we get these huge heavy expensive unoptimized pieces of techno garbage. And of course they need fast charging, otherwise you'd be wired to a charter half the time.
I'm practically forced to spend 10€ per month, even if I'm hesitant to buy new stuff, just to have a reasonable phone. That's crazy.
