Hey Pixel users 👋

I’m looking to customise my Pixel 9 for better day-to-day performance and would love to hear from people who have been using their Pixel for a while.

I got information that senior users never getting issue like heating and network fluctuations and any type of issues In their pixel devices.

My main goals are:

🔥 Less heating / better temperature management

📶 Better & more stable network speed/reception

🔋 Good battery life without sacrificing performance

⚡ Smooth overall performance

If you’ve found any settings, developer options, network configurations, or other tweaks that genuinely made a difference, please share them.

Especially interested in:

5G vs 4G settings that work best for you

Preferred network type/settings

Adaptive connectivity — ON or OFF?

Battery/performance settings

Background app restrictions

Developer options worth changing (and which ones to avoid)

Any Pixel-specific tips for reducing heating

Your carrier/network + location, if relevant

Any settings that improved download/upload speed or signal stability

Please share your Pixel model, Android version, carrier, and the tweaks you use, along with your experience.

I’d really appreciate real-world tips rather than generic advice. 🙏
