iphone 16e (supposedly) has more battery life then a 16 pro


the samsung m35 has more battery than the s25 ultra

isn't battery supposed to be important for flagships

Extra stuff takes extra power? That would be my guess. The pro has a slightly more powerful processor so it’s going to consume slightly more power. Maybe the speakers are different so they take more power? The screen likely consumes more power, especially in a test at 50% brightness. I’m pretty sure 50% of the brightness on the pro is brighter than 50% on the e.

I doubt Apple is putting a smaller battery on the pro models.
