How do you preserve your battery after 2 years? Went from 93% to 86% battery health in a year. What I’m I doing wrong ?

[@altabtabai5696]

Important point: Thanks for including the standby time. I noticed that most reviewers dont. For me, the standby time is as important as the usage/screen on time. For average users, the phone stays on standby for a long time and seeing how much the battery bleeds during that time is so important. I've had a note 20 ultra with a GREAT battery life but super awful standby time, which made me really appreciate the standby time on the iPhones.

[@jamrug3472]

Note 20 Ultra requires a brain to properly decide which apps you want to work in the background and how often. By default they all are working without any limits, the user has to decide. Apple on the other hand created a perfect system for mentally disabled people that can't do that by themselves, you don't have to decide, decisions was already made for you. Example: properly tuned Z Flip 3 with 3300 mAh small battery - 5% per night.

[@efechief2659]

You are correct. Androids have awful standby times, but no one does those tests because its not sexy enough for reviews. I'm experiencing that with the Fold. However, it seems slightly better on Android 12. I stress the word seems.

Would 12 pro max still be bought in December 2022? I'm going to buy a phone from abroad, I'm stuck between 12 pro max and 14 (normal). Overseas prices are very close to each other. Except for minor technical details, I can't see a gap between the 12-13-14 series. The big screen looks a little more attractive. Since I can't afford 13 pro max and 14 pro max, 12 pro max is more attainable for me financially. Both the large screen and the photo quality that does not look like 13-14 push me to 12 pro max. Two things make me think. If I buy the first 12 pro max, I will get a 2 year old phone and my update will end 2 years before. I'm an average user of 5 years, will 12 pro take me max 5 years? If I buy it, will I be investing into the past? Or should I buy a 14 just because it's the current model? Should I follow the logic that new is still new?
