Very curious about this almost 4,000 mAh battery. I have the XR and it’s at about 3K. I was going to go with the 11 Pro but we picked up a boat and I’m using my phone for GPS a lot. The huge screen and battery would be helpful. Would love to hear about how people are using and how their battery life is.
Got a tip for us?

IMO, the battery life is much better than the IPhone XS Max, I’m at 85 percent with light use through out the day and its 3pm.
Rather insane and the numbers Apple projected looking accurate
I’m on 3 hours screen time on 70% left at 21:00 after taking off charge around 11am
It’s amazing
Friday and Saturday, I got a total of 17 hours screen on time, no charging at all. I use dark mode and a browser with a dark mode. Admittedly I didn’t game or use gps stuff, it was more usage to compare with my Xs max which I could get around 12 hours with.

Wouldn’t be at all surprised if the battery test videos on YouTube start showing this knocks spots off most other flagships for battery life

It actually is much better than my 10xs max .
Saturday took it off the charger at 644am, and went to bed around 11pm at 53%.
Lots of Social media use
YouTube videos
A few phone calls
Lots of texting

I’m at 89% and my Pro Max has been off the charger for at least 8-9 hours. Have been texting some, made a few calls, listened to an audio book while driving for about half an hour and been on safari. Sounds like a lot but i consider it medium to light use.
I’m sure if I watched a video or something it would be less. But i think the battery is excellent so far for my use. But my old X held a charge all day too on my daily use typically.

I have been keeping track of this. My battery lasted 14 hours and 30 minutes yesterday. I used it A LOT! I played music for two hours straight while I was driving home from visiting family. I used the GPS. I took lots of pics, videos, and of course browsing the internet and social media.
Right now I’m at 30% and I’ve been using it for 11 hours and 30 minutes. So I’m very happy with my iPhones battery life!

I have the 11 pro max and I am completely blow away by this battery. Does The 11 Pro Max have a better battery life than the 11 pro? I kinda wanted to go back to a smaller phone but I dont want to sacrifice the batter life
3Hr50min screen on time at 66% battery at 9:58pm. Took it off the charger at 7:58am.
Past 2 days I've been getting about 7 hours of screen on time with heavy usage on my 11 Pro, 9 hours overall yesterday before it hit 5%, ~12.25 hours to 10% today. Starting work tomorrow should be even better since there will be less usage. I can only imagine the 11 Pro Max gets at least another 1-2 hours on screen time.
I have the standard 11 Pro and my battery life blows my XS out of the water. So for those wondering if the improvements are limited to the Max, it’s definitely not. So happy with the upgrade.
Getting about 12 1/2 hours a day. Of course battery depends on what activities you’re doing. A friend got 14. In any case it’s a big improvement
Battery life is pretty incredible.
Even more so when you turn off silly stuff like background app refresh.

Sounds promising.
But, it’ll be interesting to see when these batteries start to noticeably drop off after being quick-charged for months.
