Good news for android overall. Hopefully, this could be extended to other OEMs by 2025 and not be optional like virtual A&Bs when it arrives.

(Meanwhile, my current smartphone running 4.19.. )

Will there be any battery improvements? My Pixel 6 could use some (I miss the battery life of my 5a, RIP).

There could be. Newer smartphones are going to improve. You should hold out for a year or two and wait until the tensor is efficient and provides good battery life.

Note: The toot mentions Pixel 9 and pixel 8 series smartphones. It could happen but I won't hold my breath for pixel 6.
