Iphone 11 Pro 7:36
Iphone 11 Pro Max 8:29 2nd longest ever
Iphone 12 6:41
Iphone 12 Pro 6:35
 
I canceled my 12 Pro order and kept my 11 Pro and bought my wife a 11 Pro instead of the new models. Smaller battery and removing the power brick is a ridiculous move by Apple. 11 Pro is a damn good phone
 
Too many people have unrealistic expectations when it comes to battery. They want to use their phone any way they want for most, if not all day, and expect the battery to still be able to able to make it the rest of the way. It doesn’t work that way.

Face it: Technology has not caught up to the unrealistic expectation crowd who want iPhones with all kinds of hardwares features that don’t draw heavily on the battery.

What tech are we gaining this time from 11 Pro line? Don’t say 5G, since reception is spotty

I canceled as well. As tempting as the new features are, i’m just not ready to compromise on the amazing battery on my 11 Pro😭.

Tomsguide.com got the opposite results. 12 Pro lasted 1 hour longer than 11 Pro on LTE.

That is such an asinine statement to make. Expecting the new iPhones to have at least as good as battery life as the previous model is far from unrealistic.

We don’t know “spotty” coverage reception to be Apple’s fault with the new phones so, you can’t ask me to name new hardware and then tell me I can’t mention it because you don’t seem to think 5G is useable for everyone at this time.

Unless my memory is off at the moment, 5G and camera spec bump are the only user upgraded hardware differences between the two phones.

The statement I previously made has played out on this forum since the first iPhone. Even when there hasn’t been a recent new phone release, there are a plethora of posts complaining about battery life and lack of new feature innovation innovation.
 
I am watching YouTube in full brightness to drain the charge so that I can do more charging test.
But it is taking forever to bring it down from 88% to 75%...

Do you have Disney+? They have a lot
Of 4K Dolby Vision content that if you stream at full brightness should drain the battery pretty quickly.

All we asked for a equal screen refresh rate to many android devices
