Another Google Pixel 6a catches fire after battery-nerfing update

Google's recent battery-optimizing update for the Pixel 6a has faced a setback, as another incident of the device catching fire has been reported. The update, intended to improve battery life, seems to have had the opposite effect, with users experiencing their phones overheating and, in some cases, catching fire. The incident, which occurred in the United States, is the second such case to be reported, raising concerns about the safety and reliability of the Pixel 6a. Google has acknowledged the issue and is reportedly investigating the matter. The company's Battery Performance Program, launched earlier this year, was designed to address battery-related problems in the Pixel 6 and 6a models. However, this latest incident suggests that the update may not have been as effective as hoped. As Google continues to investigate the issue, users of the Pixel 6a are advised to exercise caution and closely monitor their devices for any signs of overheating or other potential problems.
