Does outdoor use mean Pokemon go?
My job is related with being outside and using the phone. I head out at 7:30 and get back home at around 15:30, and the battery can't get me through the day, typically dies with around 3 hours of SoT..

My typical usage is outdoors on mobile data. Today it did 3 hours SoT with 25% left, on ios 13.3
Why do we pay this price if we have to make compromises when using the phone..like battery saving modes and reducing brightness![]()
I bought a new XS almost 2 weeks ago. For the first few days I thought the battery life was awful but I was using it a lot being a new phone. This last week it has improved dramatically. Yesterday I was still at 50% come the evening and it was charged the day before. Here is my screenshot for what it’s worth.
Because a smartphone is a compromise. Brightness, especially at 100 percent, is a guaranteed killer for any battery of any smartphone. Coupled with an app like Penguin Isle that kills a fully charged iPad Pro 2017 in 2-3 hours you're in for a bad surprise. That's why everyone is asking so many questions about your usage.Why do we pay this price if we have to make compromises when using the phone..like battery saving modes and reducing brightness![]()
I owned a HTC 10 like 3 years ago - it was even worse than the iPhone. I don't now how you manage to get this out from it.
Certainly I would not consider an iPhone or any 'premium' phone if I was still working, still out and about with customers, managers, and colleagues calling me all day. For someone who needs their phone as a business tool I think a cheap brick with a jumbo battery is going to be much better, but I guess that's getting off topic.
Um no, 11 pro or max will do it.
Should I do a reset? I've never did one on this phone, even after update to 13.3
It looks like your phone is working OK but just doesn’t have the battery for your usage. In reviews the XS has been criticised for battery life since it was launched, so maybe not a total surprise?Well, when not using the phone, there is no drain.
Inside on wifi and screen brightness around 50% gives a pretty solid battery life...like 10% per hour - I feel I can get around 8 hours SoT if I'm at home.
But when I use it outdoors on mobile data, it drains the battery for 3-3:30 hours.
I had a SE back in the days, it reaches 4 hours with the same usage.
Then it’s your usage outdoors. Either your usage is too heavy, the brightness is too high, or both. I can’t see the Xs at full brightness using, I don’t know, maps with LTE lasting more than 5 hours of SoT.Well, when not using the phone, there is no drain.
