I got an extra 30% battery life after switching to GrapheneOS. I’m guessing whatever is saving my battery, would also bring down the load on the system.
I did notice my phone heats up much less after switching to GrapheneOS.
I have no recommendations for versions. Depends in your case.
Although I’ll mention that some people don’t like that Pixel by default doesn’t include the bottom menu on the screen, and uses other swiping features on the screen to do the same thing.
However in your system settings you can change the UI to gave the navigation menu at the bottom of the screen similar to Samsung.

plan to buy a pixel just to put Graphene on. Which one do you have and any problems?

I’ve got a 7 and works great
I’ve been runnnng GrapheneOS with charge capped at 80%. Phone has not emulated thermite.
I haven’t found any discussion about the battery issues at GrapheneOS yet.
Meaning you charge till 80% full, or at 80% max charging speed? just curious.
80% full. It drastically helps extend battery life
Yep. It’s the capacity.
Anyone can cap the charging speed by using a garbage $2 700mA charger from 2008.
Is this done manually , or there’s a system thing for it ?
Many phones support it. My old mid range Samsung galaxy phone from 2020 had it, as does my Pixel 9a.
In GrapheneOS, Settings -> Battery -> Charging Optimization.
Just here to confirm this comment from personal experience.
