Battery with the latest update is a nightmare. Lost more than 11 percent from standby of 14 hours. What about you guys

Love this phone, I want to use it for more years but now with the problem with charging stop when the temperature is low and become slow reload. I'll have to find another replacement soon.

Yea to A52, an all-rounder phone and still strong year ending 2024. Very good cameras and has slim waist at 75mm. The A53 onwards have wider waist which felt too beefy to my liking. Yea to the A52s as well.
