@PawelK Infinitime had the same problem with the PineTime and its Nordic chip.

A cell phone would be very different. What Mr. Lee is working on could actually get closer to it if the Pinephone had a low power screen and a larger battery. There is likely a problem with that hardware revision too. It has enough control to where it charged at 5V 3A without issue for me. Two microcontrollers control charging of the device.

@AmpBenzScientist

Two micro-controllers? WTF?

On low power side from my ie SW perspective, i just suspect (AS yet), java, JavaScript, and unwanted and unneeded animations on web (including via elements of CSS and SVG) suck dong, just as user-tracking and web-ads and app-ads.

Also on datalimiting, so both bandwidth and CPU, vector + text formats for many images + tinysvg-esque projects will kick ass.

@PawelK Allwinner SoCs like the A64 are paired with an X Powers AXP 803 which controls charging and power use. There's also another PMU on the Pinephone. I think the other is used for faster charging and more advanced features.
