Apple 7+ Battery Life Actually WORSE

[gadgetfreaky]

Check out the talk time, and audio playback etc....battery life is actually worse.

I was expecting an improvement in battery life since it's the single most valuable feature rated by users. Who cares if I can play Flappy Bird at 1000 FPS if my battery is dead?

Some tasks are more, some tasks are less.

Well, wireless will obviously eat more battery.

Wait, people have the phone already?

It's actually better. Except the ones with "wireless", everything else is better. If you use regular wired headphones, the battery will last just as long if not longer

I did notice the battery life was skipped over very quickly in the keynote and completely left out of the Watch 2.

You'd have thought with all the billions Apple holds in cash they'd have come up with a decent battery solution by now.

I don't think it'll be worse but I don't think it'll be better either.
