Lol, when you have the ability, it isn't too difficult to improve on OEM phone OS'es since unlike say iOS or Windows Phone, each one for Android is custom BS that seems immensely lacking once you have use a good custom Rom (Pure Nexus really is slim on actual changes, but some of the few settings he does add is great little QoL stuff. You don't really need a custom kernel to enjoy the device, but I do personally like to tinker within it a tad. Nexus/Pixel is pretty dang close to optimal Google empty and polished vs something from Samsung/LG (HTC has gotten pretty slim on their theming in recent years however. A HTC10 is a great phone as well with a fantastic camera and headphone AMP)

Though like mentioned above, you should still get a good 4hrs SoT unless you are playing games all the time and just ripping through battery. Check into the battery setting and possibly, maybe download the BetterBatteryStats that might give you a better look at what might be eating your battery so much. Even stock with Facebook and (in my case) 300ish apps, you should only loose about 3-4% an hr standby and still get 4hrs SoT. I have gotten it up to 5~ but the screen is a bit of a battery pig I can't get past without a really dark theme.

is this man overclocking his phone

he is attempting to do so, but the software he's using refuses to allow him to do so, for sensible reasons.

he is angry about these thermal and software limits.

he's managed to lock all six CPUs to be on at once (2 big cores and 4 little cores) and the thing is probably a hand warmer and sucks battery dry but it is fast when it works right (it never does).

do they even send marquee signage out anymore? every theatre near me has electronic signage or none at all except the indie theatres which have the throwback letterboard and primarily uses posters to say what they're showing
