Ah yeah exactly. My 2 XL was doing very good originally. I could get through an entire day and still be at 75% by the end of the day. I've used some restricting apps too, also with no luck. And yes, LTE does drain it more quickly. But I don't think it's doing too much.

I haven't. The reason I haven't is because this is a recent install from maybe a month or two ago. Even before this was active, my battery wasn't that great.

Yeah I've looked at that. It'll cost $90 or so at uBreakiFix. Because I'm still able to get through a day, I'm going to keep it the way it is until I have an actual issue getting through the day. Thank you!

I have had this Pixel 2 XL for about 8 months. Even from the beginning, I'd only managed 4-5 hours SOT. At this point, I'm getting 1-3 hours SOT. I've noticed my battery doesn't charge to 100% often, but if it does, it immediately drops to 98% right after taking it off the charger. I use the original charger as often as possible and only charge it when I need to. I've tried every solution Google says and other people's solutions. I've talked to Google Support a while ago and she recommended format my device. I did, but that didn't help. I got the same amount. A normal day for me is waking at 6:30, unplug phone at 7 and leave for school, then get home at 3:00. A normal day is 1.5-3 hours of use and I'm at around 30-45% after that. If I work, I usually work until 10. I usually don't go home before work. At which point I charge my phone in the car to about 55%. After work, my phone is typically dropped to 30% or less just after being asleep for a few hours.I'm not sure what's causing all of this. Should I talk to Google about a replacement phone, replacement battery, or go through uBreakiFix? I can spend any amount of money, reasonably. I'm just mostly worried about time. Google could take 7-10 days and idk about uBreakiFix. I've noticed no difference between safe mode and normal boot. I've also noticed no difference between having 1.1.1.1 running or not. Any suggestions?

Alright thank you!! I took a look at the Dell XPS 15 and I'm definitely interested in that. Either that or the Razer Blade Stealth 13.

That's fine. And I prefer the Spectre x360, but I would like other 2 in 1s if they have better specs, but still good battery life. I was taking a look at the Acer Nitro 5 Flip or whatever that was. But I didn't see a configuration with an SSD and I'm not sure if I can replace the drive in a 2 in 1.

I don't want a 4K display, that's my problem. The only one without only has integrated graphics, and those aren't powerful enough either. And I want this laptop cause this is my favorite laptop I've used in a long time. Battery life is good, performance is pretty great, it feels great, looks great, and the keyboard is pretty nice. I just prefer this design.

Okay so I'm looking to buy an HP Spectre x360 for college and light gaming. The new ones have either 4K display with an MX150 or 1050 TI or a FHD display with Intel UHD Graphics 620. I know I can't game well on 4K with those specs and I don't want integrated graphics even for FHD. I'm trying to stay away from the 1050 TI since that one costs more than I want to spend. Would you recommend getting the 4K one and lowering the specs all the way down and down scaling to 1080p or getting the FHD one and just lowering the graphics as far down as possible? Or mention a previous HP Spectre x360. I don't want any other laptop, just this one. I prefer to spend less than $1600, if possible.

Okay, I'll do that. I typically get like 810CB approximately. Thanks!

Yeah, I knew that. I just wasn't sure about using 3/4 slots.

Oh, I always thought they did. Thank you, I'll try it!

Yeah, thank you. I'll just try it!

Okay, so I only have 8GB of RAM in my computer. The issue is, it's 2x4GB. I have an Asrock Z270 Pro4 motherboard with an i7-7700K. It has 4 DIMM slots. I have an extra 8GB stick. Every stick is 2400MHz. Is it possible to use all 3 sticks without any problems? I'm pretty sure I can't use Dual Channel, but that's okay. I am planning on getting a second 8GB stick sometime soon as well. The other issue is my CPU cooler covers up my 4th DIMM Slot, So I can't use all 4 until I get a new CPU cooler, which will be the Be Quiet! Dark Rock TF. Thanks for the help!

I've tried overclocking but with my cooling, it's not possible above 5 GHz. Which is still good. Thanks for the help, though!

I know that. I originally did a ton of video editing more than gaming. But now I'm doing more gaming.
