Google will throttle your Pixel 10's battery, and there's nothing you can do about it

Google's Battery Health Assistance feature on the Pixel 10 will also slow down your charging speed over time.

Google has confirmed that its Battery Health Assistance feature can’t be turned off on the Pixel 10 phones.

This feature gradually reduces your phone’s charging speed and battery to “stabilize” battery performance and aging.

Pixel 10 can record videos using the VP9 and AV1 codecs, helping to save valuable storage space.

Support for the AV1 format is especially noteworthy, as it can reduce video file sizes by up to 30% compared to the current default H.265 with no quality loss.
