Anyone noticed Apple didn’t mention about battery life at all for the iPhones? It just says ‘Great’ on the chart.
Typically, even if phone has the same amount of battery life, Apple will make it a point where they packed in all these new features and still have same XX hours as last year model or something along those lines.

This year, nothing. So my guess is 5G will eat up the battery a bit more and maybe another reason the pros are bigger this year...to add a bit more battery in there to not totally mess up the battery life. Cause I know the 11 pro max had amazing battery life.

Thoughts?
 
Just check the specs page on Apple.com
Same battery life on 12 Pro Max compared to 11 Pro Max

"Great" is both a relative and subjective term to use, so maybe it was used in place of actual figures to detract from the fact that battery usage times are decreasing.

Based on what @bobmans posted, this looks like to be the case with the slight decrease on the pro model.
