iPhone 17 Pro Max The 17 Pro max has the best battery life ever on a smartphone I’ve used

I’m primarily an android user but I have owned pretty much every iPhone except a couple, I’ve also owned a lot of the high end android phones (I also currently have a Samsung S25 Ultra). The battery life on the 17 Pro Max is absurd, Its by far the best I’ve ever had. I use the phone habilitation every day, from phone calls to texts, lots of YouTube and some streaming etc…I finish my day with almost 50% battery….WHAT?!!!! That is crazy bro

Heavily* not habilitation

Whilst it is obviously very good, repeated test have shown that due to iOS 26’s inefficiency, both the 16 Pro Max and the 16 Plus on iOS 18 are better.

Still, as I have mentioned many times before, I think battery life has been enough for iPhones since Plus models (for themselves only), and since the 11 series for the whole lineup.

Just curious, can you share a screenshot of settings-battery?

I will do that tomorrow cause I got home and I put it on the charger cause I'm going out later. I got you tomorrow though

same. it’s actually ridiculous. wife and i visited her grandma and family last night which is about 100 miles each way. we left at 3pm and my phone was fully charged, and i used it very heavily in the car (i’m a passenger princess) both there and back, taking photos/time lapse videos out the window of the crazy sunset, multiple phone calls and facetime, and streamed music over cellular most of the car rides and we got home at 9:30pm and I had 50% battery still. mighty impressive
