Just to clear out things: It would be best to compare batteries when at around 50% as Iphones have software limits which keeps the percentage at 100% for longer then it suddenly drops down to 80%. The comparison as a whole: I liked it, keep it that way ;)

this here is a great point the samsung may win in both performance AND battery if the tests starts at 50%

[@StOrmZIsoNItZWaY]

No they don't lmao. Most batteries capacities are actually higher than what they're rated. Thus, the battery drains but the phone still shows 100% because they have excess overhead. It's not software artificially limiting the battery percentage to 100%, it's just above the range it measures. If percentages went up to 105% for example you'd see it dropping the whole time.

I'm not surprised by the iPhone's behavior, rather amused. The whole concept of iOS and the iPhone is that it can't do more than 1 thing and forcing the device to do 2 shows that it can't and the HW resource distribution has absolutely failed. While MS teams took more RAM and processor and because it was prioritized, the game had less and less HW resources, so you could see the absolute unplayability of the game, because the system can only do 1 thing at a time. Aand of course the effort to reduce power consumption limited performance.

One could also argue that the test was specifically designed to showcase the RAM of the S23U and Pixel 7, even if there is no practical, real-world benefit. There is no logical reason to run your GPS, a Teams call, a 4K video and a game all on the same screen.

S23 Ultra looks like have the highest Brightness even after lowering its own brightness, and for me S23 Ultra wins in every categories in this test cause the first 10% of iPhones drains less compared to its other 90% cause the first 10% have more MaH

[@oogwaythesussyturtle]

the main thing is that apple severly downclocked it's cpu as well when it heated up. the throttling of both the chip as well as the display was the reason it only dropped by 7%. s23 ultra didn't dip the brightness as fast or as low as the iphone and it didn't throttle the cpu. if same conditions were to be applied to the iphone, it would've lost a LOT more battery.

[@yazouruaim694]

@@oogwaythesussyturtle iPhone Lost more battery than both tho, cause the first 10% of iPhone is have a double percentage than the other 90%, if you actually observe carefully you can notice that in every Battery drain test iPhone first 10% of 100% last alot longer but if it's below 90% it's drain alot more faster

The iPhone’s processor is capable of playing games quite well But Apple prioritises the safety and longevity of their components so it starts acting right away to save the components from damaging due to overload It’s like a little safety barrier that u can’t surpass. The Samsung shows better results cuz the phone doesn’t have much of a barrier stopping it from running its fullest Which might sound good but it’s a terrible idea In long run the Samsung will probably be the first to need battery replacement and repairs. But if u look on to the specs sheet the Samsung does have a slightly better processor than the iPhone so I don’t know but The iPhone dimming its bringtness soon than the other two phones is actually a good thing , it might be frustrating but at last it is trying to save itself from potential overheating and damage. Apple is smart sometimes u know 😂

[@dave6018]

iPhone owner by any chance ? All phones have software to protect the battery , the issue was caused by thermal throttling of the CPU, the apple was dropping clock speed to protect itself causing the lag, so the issue is either ap5ples cooling or chip design,

[@SreejithKSGupta]

Dude had never heard of thermal throttling before I guess... Take a pixel, and record videos for 10 minutes in direct sunlight, and you will see "Apple's smart phone saving tech" in action for an android device. the ability of the phone to run without frying itself is better in S23U than ip14, and hence the result. if you did the same test with s22U, you would have seen that Samsung is "smarter" than Apple and Google. So, your unpassable barrier in IOS and none in Android is absurd. also, there is something called "cooling the phone" by using things such as vapor chambers or copper pipes, same with batteries, like graphene stripes, which allows the battery to accept heat at a much higher rate, without damaging the battery or phone. crying instead of blaming Apple for not implementing any such thing (thermals is not an issue actually, the A16 is quite capable, this is an extreme case, but battery is BAD) because they want maximum profit, and hailing them for taking 1.5 hours for full charge is not a bright idea
