I'm just wondering what the projected theoretical max battery life is for the Pinephone.
my terrible years old ZTE Android phone lasts all day with wifi and bluetooth enabled with battery to spare at night time. my wife's phone will last for multiple days.
my Pinephone literally has to turn everything off using CRUST, with no possible configuration in order to not die in a couple of hours, even with the screen off.
this begs the question: what is the projected maximum life we can ever hope to achieve, while having the Pinephone function as an actual phone? surely, if the modem must be disabled in order for the phone to not die from power loss, it can't possibly be considered a usable daily driver.
