iPhone 12 5G vs LTE battery life?

[CubeHacker]

Has anyone turned off 5G completely and forced their iPhone 12 into 4G LTE only and noticed an improvement in battery life? I'm curious if there is an improvement, and those of you that have done it, just how much better you've seen the battery life improve.

Here you go. Don’t have 5G in India yet. With 50-60% of the time on LTE and rest on WiFi my iPhone 12 gives me 8hrs of SoT and 15-18 hrs in between charges easily. Very different experience compared to what many reviewers are talking about 😁

Thanks for the input. Seems good to me, though it would be best to compare to a full day with 5G enabled and disabled to see if it makes a difference. Has no one tried this yet?

Update?

I'd say setting my Mini for LTE Only improved battery about 20%, also keeping Dark mode on 24/7 helped a lot.
