Your experiences with Adaptive Battery

Hello r/Android! I'm happy Huawei user on mid-range device with Oreo, so I'm wondering, how's been your experience with Adaptive Battery on Pie? Did it improve your battery life, and did it affect notifications? We on Huawei (talking about Android 9/EMUI 9 version) don't have Adaptive Battery, we have Huawei's own battery saving tools. In Device Manager you select which application can run in background, and which can't, and it works flawlessly and is very convenient, so I'm wondering how's Adap...

Things that we would still like to know about the coming phones on February 20th (S10, Mi9 and maybe other)

Let's start a thread with the things that we still do not know about the coming phones on February 20th.

For me the most pressing (other than precise price, but that is always an issue):

- do any of the S10 or Mi9 still have a notification LED?

- does any of the cameras on the back of any of the S10 models have the (Samsung or Sony) 48 mpixels sensor that in low-light scales down to 12?

- does the S10 have [long-range BLE 5](https://www.reddit.com/r/Android/comments/amob8i/last_weekend_we_ta...
