This is not very scientific, of course, but I am interested to see if using True Tone seems to affect battery life in a substantial way. Please only vote if you have an iPhone X.

Edit: The last option should say 10+ hours
 
6-7 hours, True Tone off. To be fair though, I have been using a higher brightness than I usually use because of the natural way the OLED looks for me in dark conditions. I'd say round 80-85% compared to 70% on past iPhones.
 
Unplugged at 7:10 as I do every day, it’s now 17:27 and I’m on 45%.

True Tone on.
 
That’s interesting, so far it looks like true tone has no effect, or even a positive affect on Battery Life
