FINALLY a channel that tests devices with 100% battery health. So many channels test the battery on the older phones with a lot lower battery health. Of course their battery life is gonna suck!!!!

[@MrBuckethead911]

Thanks for the video! One thing I've noticed with pretty much all battery test videos out there is that nobody's really taking calls into consideration when testing out battery life. I think phone calls/ FaceTime/ Messenger/ WhatsApp calls would be a nice addition when doing these tests since we are talking about a phone after all, and from my personal experience using iPhones, I feel like calls usually blast through the battery more than most other activities. I feel like including anything from 15 minutes to perhaps an hour of calls (I feel this is a somewhat fair estimate of a user's average daily call timings) would be a great addition and it would be interesting to see the comparison between generations. Thank you :)

[@RolandKoller90]

Agreed, FaceTime KILLS a battery.

[@MegaTechpc]

This is a great idea in principle but I fear that adding a call test (or FaceTime etc) would be really difficult to pull off in terms of the parameters already set for these battery tests that Ultimate device Vids has long- established over years of doing them. Calls( more so than any of these tests) really depend on cellular connection in terms of their effect on battery usage. I mean, you can’t make a call on WiFi (at least in a way that would be relevant in such a comparison) and as such, the results wouldn’t really be all that useful to add to the testing suite. I’d imagine simply making calls while remaining in the same location would yield very similar results as the biggest reason calls tend to use a lot of battery in real life scenarios is because in real life you are constantly switching cell towers as you move about. Sometimes the tower you are using is close by but often your phone is forced to use a tower many miles further away depending on where you happen to be and how many towers are available in that particular area. Distance dramatically affects power usage so getting a properly relevant comparison would be a logistical nightmare, if it’s even possible. I suspect this is the reason most battery comparisons do not include calls. Keep in mind that I’m no expert in this area and I could be totally wrong about all of this but it at least makes sense to me. Please correct me if I’m in error in my thinking here. As I said, if a fair and relevant way to perform call testing is possible I agree that that data would be very interesting. Maybe adding calls to the test suite while staying in one location with the caveat being that the results are not indicative of real-world calling would be interesting as another data point, but I just suspect that taking tower-switching out of the picture would yield very similar results, thus making their inclusion rather unnecessary.

[@Poppin023]

My 14 Pro Max lasted noticeably less than my 13 Pro Max. When I upgraded to the 15 Pro Max I was worried it would have the same battery issues as the 14 Pro Max since Apple didn't mention any battery improvements in their keynote. But thankfully the battery life has been better and tests like yours reflect that too. I know it would probably be insanely time consuming, but would you ever consider adding a standby section in future tests? For example, using the phone for 5-6 hours straight, letting it go on standby overnight, and then continuing the battery test the next day. This would also give you a nice break too. And in a test with standby, it's possible the 13 Pro Max could close the gap with the 15 Pro Max, potentially giving even more accurate results.

Why are you upgrading every year? There’s barely any difference from the 13 to the 15. And the 13 is better than the 14, battery wise

Dropped my 13 pro max and was forced to upgrade at the worst time to 14 pro max right before 15 came out. Idk I LOVED my 13 pro max but maybe that’s because I was coming from an old busted 8 plus. Don’t feel the emotional connection to the 14 pro max. Not sure if it’s my imagination but selfies felt more flattering on 13 pro max and battery felt longer but that could be because i was so happy and that was such a significant upgrade from what I had been using prior. Also, Dynamic Island is dumb I have no particular love of it. It’s whatever and I actually was really happy I got 13 pro max when they finally made the notch smaller. Maybe it’s just like placebo effect
