Pro Max since one week now.
Coincidence I was ill when I received him last week. Fully charged, copied everything from my XsMax. Still 91%. Did a little bit reading, surfing, setting up. Had to charge 3 days later on 18% in the evening!
Went back to work this week, I have to charge every day
The same behavior with my XsMax. What could be the reason battery life is much worser when I'm not at home...
I have an homekit and family setup. Maybe that could be something?
Assuming you’re on Wi-Fi at home. Is that the case at work?
My 14PM is crap compared with my 13PM. Exactly the same use, charging habits, etc. and my 14 is often down below 10% at bedtime, where my 13 would still be at 30%+ at the same time.
That... is outstanding. 7 hours from 19:04 yesterday to 19:04 today, and we don’t even know whether you used it from 13:20 to 19:04 yesterday, so, presumably, it’s even higher than that. At least 7 hours with 45% used, probably more, but extrapolating: at least 16 hours of SOT 100-0%, if not more. One of the best results I’ve seen here, impressive.
Also presumably with at least a little LTE. My Xʀ on iOS 12 could never...
Former XR owner here, and I thought that battery was more than suffice. The battery in this 14 Plus is fantastic. Keep in mind, I do my part in settings to maximize the life. 5G is off, location services are used only for vital apps ONLY when in use, brightness is always pretty low, Wi-Fi is off when out and about, etc….
It is, I was joking: 16 hours of screen-on time is the battery life I get on my Xʀ running iOS 12, with full Wi-Fi. Full LTE is a little lower, hence “my Xʀ could never”. I’d never complain about that! The extrapolation was right at my full Wi-Fi limit on my Xʀ.
Yeah, I figured. Being a person who maximizes battery life myself, you wouldn’t be able to get that much with every setting on. It is impossible to get anything like that with high brightness and everything turned on.
My iPhone 14 Plus lasts from anywhere from 2-5 days on a full charged but granted I’m not usually on it all the time. Rarely watch videos or stream music/audio. I prefer my laptop/iPod for that. Mostly use it for contacting people, writing on, checking emails and a select few apps like Tapatalk, GoodReads, News, Discord and sometimes Books when I have to.
What are YOU doing where you only get 5-6 hours on your 14 Pro?5-6h with my 14 pro. So wtf are u doing to get that much screen on time
Im been having awful battery life on my 14 pro, how are yours guys and it seems to be overheating when a couple of times it says charging on hold due to temperature also im on 16.2 which ive heard is pretty bad.
As in "have you tried turning it off and then on again?" Over the years whenever my iPhone (various models and iOS versions) has suffered from usual battery drain and overheating this has always fixed it.
