The toxic people who scream at you on how the 11 is better in every way, are wrong because the se 3 actually performed better than the 11 in the battery drain test, despite having a 1/3 bigger battery and being a bigger phone.

Granted, I'm not a power user....but I'm not your typical senior citizen either. I'm somewhere in the middle, so I've had no issues with battery life whatsoever.

[@elsanto8879]

I have the iPhone 12 and the se 2020. Although the battery life on my 12 is much better, I actually prefer the compact form factor on my se 2020. I use it while working listening to podcasts and music all morning. It usually has about 30-40% battery left after about 6-7 hours of usage by the time I get home. I don’t game, watch videos or do any social media on my phones which is a huge factor. That’s what my iPad is for. The best part of my se 2020 is that it’s less addicting

[@m-stat9]

They have roughly the same size, considering the chunky bezels. I could NEVER switch my own regular 12 with a shitty SE, 8 or my old 7. Everything is just on the next level. And even considering I also have an iPad, when being on the go, having a 6.1" screen is much more convenient for messaging and mails than a lousy 4.7" LCD.

Fairly impressed with the results. As you mentioned typically people don't run bench mark tests or record a ton of video on a daily basis (especially customers that are considering the 2022 SE) so pretty much all these phones with the exception of the SE 2020 should get you through the day without a problem.

Not only that but A15 actually has one of the most powerful single cores not just on phone where it is by far the best but also in a device as a whole. Only the latest gen AMD and Intel processors can match the power of A15 for the core.

I loved my 2020 SE 2 and it worked well for me while I needed it. I used it mostly at home where I was constantly near a charger. But man, once the world opened up again and I started to get out and travel a lot more, the battery become a major problem for me. Just using it for gps and web browsing and it feels like it starts dying on me in under 3 hours. Gaming? haha forget it. Maybe 1.5 hours. Like I said though, I loved my SE when it worked for my lifestyle. It looks and feels amazing to me, even with those bezels, the screen looks great and it's fast and super powerful. I had a lot of fun with the little thing.

Right from the beginning 100% brightness doesn't mean the same luminence for all phones. You should probably buy a brightness meter to calibrate all phones to the same level and THEN test the battery.

the 13 iPhones did shockingly well. but video recording at 4k killed the 13 mini battery way too quickly in comparison to the base variant. if someone cares to elaborate why that happened. i’d appreciate it

Battery size most likely

[@zhila5958]

@@Justliving514 but remember. the base 12 has larger battery and experienced the same issue. only the base 13 stayed normal

[@Justliving514]

@@zhila5958 That could be from iOS and the fact that the iPhone 12 has 95% capacity

[@joshloubser202]

I'm not too sure but here's my guess. both phones have the exact same soc and camera system. But the 13 has a battery that's about one third bigger than that of the mini. So assuming the cameras draw an equal amount of power from the phone, then the mini would be affected more due to its smaller capacity. Also there's another factor with the 4k. It causes the phones to heat up a lot, and the mini will get hotter than standard varients ( I know this from other reviews ect). When phones are hot, then the battery dies faster because it becomes less efficient, so as a result the mini gets hit way harder. Hopefully that helps a bit?

[@arpanmalhi8342]

It's because of small size of the phone ..there is not big collent in mini for the processor which becomes hot at 4k and kills the battery fast

[@sagar2447]

Omg this iPhone 13 is a beast. Lasted almost 9 hours. I don't know how much more SOT the pro max would give. Can't wait to get mine soon.

[@User-cb4jm]

I’m surprised that the iPhone 12 with a much higher res screen and a smaller battery that is on 95% battery health had a quarter of its battery left when the iPhone 11 (with 100% battery health) died. It’s definitely a massively better choice as a cheaper iPhone when sold at discount/bought used compared to the 11 when considering the high res OLED screen, 5G, better battery, cameras and performance. The gap between the 12 and 13 isn’t as big.

[@andyH_England]

iOS 15.4 had battery issues and Apple has updated quickly to iOS 15.4.1 to resolve these and in their notes they say that this is mainly a battery update. So I would probably not take the above test as gospel as the update will improve some of these devices.

Literally out of battery after 2 3 hours of use, and not playing games or watching videos constantly. I even changed the battery for a new one and the problem was still the same. Now i have a Huawei p40 lite and the quality of the phone and software (is not android) is very similar to an iphone, feels premium. Battery lasts 1 day using it constantly watching videos (it's 4200 mAh i think). The only thing that bothers me from Huawei is that many apps are not compatible and i have to download them through APK but many don't work properly. So i was considering buying this iphone... I like the design because it's old school, all other iphones with that black thing at the top are so ugly in my opinion. But now that i see this video I'm not very sure...
