Big thanks to Casekoo for sponsoring this video.
We tested the iPhone 14 Pro Max's Always on Display to see how much it drains the battery and how it compares to the Galaxy S22 Ultra's AOD.
TEST NOTES:
- All phones were factory reset before testing with no apps or iCloud sign-in.
- Airplane mode enabled on all phones.
- We used the larger iPhone 14 Pro Max for all tests. Battery drain will likely be higher on the iPhone 14 Pro.
- Screens calibrated to 200 nits on all phones with auto-brightness turned off. However, AOD adjusts its own brightness even when turning off auto-brightness.
- Lab lighting calibrated to either 150 or 1000 LUX.
- We had our robots wake the screens every hour on each phone to prevent the AOD from turning itself off due to inactivity.

It's really not. The difference is kinda small and not really gonna impact your day in most cases.

[@Mohit-iu3ge]

[@unknown3158]

Based on my experience with my 14 pro, iPhones take a lot more time to go from 100 to 99 then 99 to 98. Also, 99% doesn't mean the same thing in every phone.

[@Krankschwester]

@@unknown3158 I have 13 Pro and I agree. As the percentage goes down, the battery starts draining fast. 50-30 is much faster than e.g. 90-70.

[@Wahabnoori786]

Thank you very much❤

[@davidtodorov8006]

Hi, I just want to mention when the phones are charged at 100% they behave differently from each others. Some manufactures wants to keep the 100 number longer than usual, there is no a such phone that use 0 percent idling 24h. The real test will be if the testing starts from 80%.

[@andyH_England]

The real reason and this has been proved and is not a conspiracy, as you imply, is that an iPhone battery is usually 5-8% higher than the stated capacity to avoid Apple being sued by the usual lawyers looking to make a buck out of Apple. Whereas Samsung phones I have owned rarely have the 5000mAh capacity they claim, and also, Samsung does not charge to full; they keep a reserve to save degradation.

[@hatsonchickens]

A phone can’t lie about how long it lasts. That’s like saying a car can last longer on one tank because when you fill up it stays at 400 miles for a bit longer than other cars.

[@ThinkCleverAndSmart]

@@hatsonchickens Funny you say that, because that's very true for a lot of cars. Thing is, this is just an estimate, and it's more difficult to estimate a correct value until you got some usage. Especially for cars, since the estimated range might be calculated based on your driving.

[@henryc4799]

Very wrong, starting the test at 80% would make it worse, like you said some companies make 100% last longer. if you were to start teh test when batteries aren't fully charged its hard to determine how much the phone is actually charged (Example, 0-50% could really be 0-30% and 30-70 could be 50-100%)

[@kirakira9906]

@@andyH_England He didn't imply any conspiracy. You simply probed him comment to be correct. The test should have performed starting at a lower battery life.

[@Crazy-77]

Can the date and time burn in since it is an OLED display? Is that the reason why on the other phone, the date and time moves around the screen? Because I don’t want to leave the AOD if it does burn in the screen after a while.

[@Mannwhich]

Yes you are correct about date and time repositioning during AOD. I don't know if burn-in for OLED displays is still a problem per say. But the concern might be real for those who like to hold onto their phones for years between upgrades.

Where did you get the calendar widget on the Lock Screen?

[@zetmalfoy]

I want to save battery, but then again when my phone is on the table i want ppl to know it's a 14 pm lol

[@kermitrehab]

0,6 per hour, if you unplugg at 07.00 and go till bed time att 11.00 .. that is 16 hours, with AOD in use you will loose about 10% over a day like that just on AOD, so it could be a difference between having 15 % at the end of a heavy day, or 5%.

[@GAMIR_SFM]

Good thing i can make the AOD enabled on specific times (example, its on during the morning until midnight)

[@ZhengZL69]

it's cool to know even though I never use aod on a phone, only on a watch lol

[@BaghaShams]

You should have done a regular battery test after you performed the long Always-On-Display test, because it's possible that those battery percentages were fake. A regular battery test down to zero would prove how much battery was actually used in that time.

[@indrahaseo]

so 150 LUX would be better than 1000 LUX to save battery then? thanks for the video and really useful advices!

[@achillesdelacruz1926]

How did you do that calendar widget? I can not do it on my 14PM.

[@guywithbrain321]

Wallpaper on and off making not much difference means that main power consumer with AOD are the smart sensors tracking whether to turn display on or not.

[@Thecarbonhero]

PSA best of both worlds is AOD Text Only, but flipping over the phone face down when you don't need the clock - it turns off AOD while face down.

That does make me curious, is Apple not concerned about burn in? I haven't seen many iPhones with burn in compared to Samsung phones, does Apple use panels that are less susceptible to it? Higher quality? I do also wonder if Apple can improve the efficiency in future generations of the AOD, maybe using the different fonts available for the time could impact battery life as well?

[@reichtangle7734]

Well Apple buys their Oled displays from Samsung, so who knows. They may even have the same problems as their rivals.

And do this test again with the 14 promax and 16.2, as well as the iPhone 14+ with the 14+ not being able to get it it would make a lot of sense to use that phone instead and then the 14 promax with the new wallpaper and notification toggle being tackled off for you always on display and then test it that way with the 14 promax. With just the time on the screen instead of the wallpaper and notifications on the lock screen option under always on display setting and then just use the iPhone 14+ with the always on display off instead of having to use 2 Pro maxes. That would’ve made more sense to me.
