Last month, Google released an unexpected Pixel 4a update that was linked to undisclosed Google Pixel 4a Smartphone battery issues, and it turns out that the update apparently reduced available power by more than 40%, while also removing some features.
In early January, Google released a new update for the Pixel 4a, which the company explained would “improve the stability of battery performance,” but also warned that the update “may” cause the battery to “last less time between charges.” To compensate for the inconvenience. Since the update was released, Pixel 4a users have seen a drastic reduction inGoogle Pixel 4a Smartphone battery life.
Some users say that their Pixel 4a, which previously could last a full day, now only lasts less than 8 hours. Other users have had it worse, with many sharing their experiences with the device after the update was released in the r/Pixel4a subreddit.
Google still hasn’t detailed why these changes were made, but it’s apparently significant, as the company has also removed all Pixel 4a software versions released before the battery update.
Android Authority has launched an investigation into the impact of this update, which lowers the maximum charging voltage of the
Google Pixel 4a phone battery, according to findings from Asahi Linux developer Hector Martin. The change drops the maximum voltage from 4.45V to 3.95V. AA claims that while it’s only a 0.5V drop, this reduces the Google Pixel 4a Smartphone battery usable charge by 44%. This is because the lower end of the voltage range is 3.3V.
Other changes in this update include the removal of adaptive charging, a feature on Pixel devices that was designed to slow down battery charging and thus extend battery life. As Google hinted (quoted below), the estimated charging time has also been removed. The update also removes the option to show battery percentage in the status bar, but users who had that setting turned on didn’t notice any changes. Some users found that theGoogle Pixel 4a Smartphone battery
percentage was low after installing the update, which may be one of the reasons for this update.
Users of affected devices may also notice other changes, such as decreased charging performance or changes in the way the battery level indicator on the phone displays theGoogle Pixel 4a Smartphone battery
The report also noted that Google marked this update as an “emergency maintenance version,” a special version that does not require as many certification steps. The reason for this is also unclear.
Affected Pixel 4a users can still contact Google to find out if they are eligible for a free Google Pixel 4a Smartphone battery replacement. Ultimately, however, this update is undoubtedly a sign that users should consider upgrading. The Pixel 4a stopped receiving regular software support in 2023
