I bought my Pixel 6 in May 2022, so I've been (adaptive and timed)
charging it to 100% for over 3 years now. Battery drain seems to be
acceptable, so far.

But to recharge it 80% I'd have to take a power bank with me at all
time. I've got one, an Anker Nano Power Bank (30W) and it's heavy. I
would have to buy a man-bag to put all my stuff (charger, powerbank,
keys, wallet, smartphone, reading glasses, ...).

I'll see how far I'll get with my Pixel 6. Maybe wait until Pixel 10 is
released, depending on what it costs. If I do buy it I'll certainly give
the 80% charge a go.

My Pixel 6 seems to do OK after 3 years, but I just installed A16 and
don't yet know what it'll do to the battery.
