iPhone X How’s your battery life on X?

I am an honest iPhone user. I like Apple products but I never defend Apple just for the sake of it.
I get around 5 1/2 hours usage time on my iPhone X. On my iPhone 8 Plus I easily get 8 - 9 hours usage.
Quite simply, the iPhone X is nowhere as battery efficient as the 8 plus.

That is from a full charge to below 10%, I believe? Yeah, seriously iphone 8 plus has a good battery backup than iphone 10. A lot of reviews and people reviews say it!
I’ve had iPhone X for about 3 weeks now. This has be best battery life of all phones I’ve had. Be had whole lot of android phones including pixel 2. I’m a heavy user and I get easily 7-7.5 hours of screen time. It lasts from 7 am till 11 am. I never made the whole day in any phones. Even in my Windows phones I’ll make it till 7pm at best. I use iPhone a lot more than I used other devices.
Apple definitely nailed the battery management on this device.

Coming from my 6S 1715 mAH battery the X is night and day difference.
I’m a heavy phone user through the day for different activities.
Had to have my 6S on a battery charger by mid day at work, and if I left work at 100%, my heavy use at home wouldnt last before I go to bed by midnight without having to recharge again.
With my X , Now I can go all day till 9pm if I don’t charge it once.
If I have it charged to 100% when I leave work now, I don’t have to charge again till I go to sleep.
I’m impressed with the battery size and efficiency.
Got myself of Mophie to take advantage of fast wireless charging.
On the wireless Mophie I’m back to 100% in about 2hrs 15 mins. Faster than it took my 6S smaller battery on the wire. Can’t complain myself. 😀

Can I know if your iphone model is A1865 or A1901? Mine is A1901. SImply tap the "model" under the "general", "about" tab.

Battery life is not what Apple said
It averages about 8 hours with Smart Invert turned on and brightness set at about 60%
Keep in mind that any activity where the screen is off increases battery life like listening to music etc

Im noticing a funny trend. I notice that, my battery drains slowly to about 40%, by then i get about ~ 5 hours usage. From the remaining 40 the battery seems to drain faster, and it takes help of low power mode to get another ~ 2.5 hours.
