Pixel 11 Pro / Pro XL owners: battery drain, Wi-Fi usage and heat after the first weeks

Community Member

There are very different Pixel 11 Pro and Pro XL battery reports, so let us collect them in a format that can actually be compared. Please share the model and storage, days since setup, clean setup or restored backup, Wi-Fi vs 5G usage, overnight idle drain, screen-on time only if you also describe the apps used, whether Wi-Fi or Mobile Network appears unusually high in battery stats, heat during normal social media/navigation/camera use, and your current Android/Google Play System update. Please avoid turning one screenshot into a universal claim. We are looking for repeatable patterns across many owners, including people who are getting excellent battery.

The interesting part of current Pixel 11 battery discussion is the variation.

Some owners report much better heat and endurance than older Pixels, while others have reported unusually high idle/network drain. A few users say a clean setup changed their result, but one person’s workaround is not enough to establish a general cause.

To make this thread useful, report the software version and setup method alongside the battery numbers. Also separate heavy-use drain from overnight idle drain; they point to different possible issues.

If you are getting excellent battery, please post that too. A troubleshooting thread becomes misleading if only people with problems contribute.

Explain what you recommend and why. Useful details are better than one-word answers.
