Can anyone comment on how is the heating and battery situation on the Google Pixel 8a? I don't do any gaming on my phone so doesn't matter if that makes it hot but does it overheat even with only basic scrolling and maybe Youtube? And how is the battery life?

Two years and seven months should not rate as a lengthy tenure for an electronic device. But for the Google Pixel 5a I bought in late 2021, that span of time is starting to feel more like a career. And in the context of people who feel compelled to buy a new phone every year, my phone might as well be on its second afterlife.
The device still functions fine–the 5a’s 5G radio has yet to be made obsolete by T-Mobile deploying new spectrum bands–and looks decent overall. In particular, I’ve managed to avoid any damage to the screen I replaced with an iFixIt repair kit in October of 2021 after shattering the original screen a few weeks earlier.
But the glass cover over the back camera assembly has developed a crack that apparently lets in enough moisture at times to lightly fog some photos.
On the phone’s inside, more than two years of discharge-recharge cycles seem to have left their dent in the battery. I’m now more likely to look for the nearest outlet by the afternoon of a day on the go to ensure that the phone retains a healthy charge margin when I get back to home or a hotel.
This phone’s 128 GB of storage also doesn’t have much left, with 112 GB now eaten up by photos, music and a collection of apps overdue for culling.
None of that seems too bad on its own, considering that I’ve kept this 5a in daily service for longer than its three predecessors: a Pixel 3a used for about two years and five months, a first-gen Pixel that served me for just over two years and a month, and a Nexus 5x that succumbed to a fatal bootloop after just a year and eight months.
But the factor most likely to push me to buy a new phone in the coming months is not the 5a’s hardware but its software. Google’s Android-support lifecycle document only pledges version updates for it through August, three years after the 5a’s debut, and Android 15 will almost certainly ship a month or two later.
A Pixel 8a, the most likely replacement, would bring a commitment of Android updates until May of 2031–far longer than I can imagine myself continuing to use a 2024-vintage phone–as well as a better camera, more storage, and cordless charging.
But the 8a and, apparently, every future Pixel phone from Google, will not include a headphone jack. Finally knuckling under to that collective design delusion on a device I use more than any other is going to sting.

Android15 beta 3 - Private space is missing for me. For me, there is still one tab saying "Security & privacy", and the option is not there.
When I type private space in the search bar on the home screen, I don't find it there.
When I search within settings, I don't find it there either. any help / any tips for me? thank you.
