Hello Chaps! To answer your questions... 1. Sadly the 16 Plus did not arrive in time. I will revisit this in my next vid (vs 8 Gen 4 phones). 2. Apple say 16 Pro Max has best iPhone battery, so the Plus is likely to come just short. 3. All phones are New (less than 50 cycles) with 100% battery leaht. 4. No, setting all the phones to 60hz is not realistic. 5. Have a great day!
Go for it!!! The best part of getting new phone is accesorizing it hahah I got my boyfriend a leather case from Vionentus in black as a gift it looks amazing seriously, but anyways, which phone do you have actually?
It SHOULD be just short of the Pro Max (Apple says the Max has the longest battery). But I’ll include it in my next battery vid with 8 gen 4 android phones
But he 15PM is not a straight out of the box phone, right ? It's a year-old phone with year old degradation on its battery. so think that factors in as well.
Depends on what you are doing. If you are on a trip somewhere and have to constantly use navigation, search for places and routes, translate stuff, take pics and videos etc. the battery is really important to last you the full day and gets used up pretty easily. It can be quite anxiety inducing to be on 20% or less somewhere far away from the hotel.

Great video! I noticed that the battery life of some smartphones has decreased compared to last year. For example, the iPhone 15 Pro Max lasted 10h31m last year but only 9h26m this year (a 10.3% decrease). Similarly, the Xiaomi 14 Ultra dropped from 10h23m to 9h09m (an 11.88% decrease), and the Galaxy S24 Ultra had the biggest drop from 11h05m to 9h14m (16.69% decrease). Any idea why there’s such a noticeable drop in battery performance for these phones?

thanks for the video! its a pain to shoot but really nice to watch. one small detail that i really liked was the night stand by, that was really important to know
its not that big battery. Oneplus does also have same size battery. Honor magic 6 pro does have even bigger battery 5,600 mAh. Most android phones do have atleast 5,000mAh batteries.
Never would’ve thought my future phone (iPhone 16 Pro max) would be in the top 3 wow I’m impressed and even more excited cause my 13 pro max has been dying super fast, going from 100 to lower than 50 in 2/3 hours.. so massive upgrade for me
Could've just put another battery at apple, I don't find the 16PM a worthy upgrade still except that I like how light it feels (the 13PM is a brick lol). What did you do to your 13PM to have the battery in this condition? I had mine for 3 years, extreme usage for most days (6-8h SOT) with 85% battery health left, lasting me all day easily. I charge my phone overnight with a slow charger. Maybe that's the key.
iPhone 16 pro max lasting 2 hours more than the iPhone 15 pro max is INSANE! Such a big difference, looks like it’s finally time for me to consider upgrading after around 4yrs coming from my iPhone 12
It’s weird because for he first half of the video they were holding at about the same percentage the whole time and then suddenly the gap started widening as the battery got lower and it ended with a massive difference.

exactly... my 11pro is still going great with 89% battery life, but this time I feel like its worth it
Holy that is so good. They cheaped out on the battery materials on 14 pro and 15 pro, but 16 should be better again cause my 15 pro is at 92% battery life after just one year
It's impressive how a single device can lead in almost all the aspects. I had seen how several people are addressing negative against Apple but according to what I see Apple leads in terms of: PERFORMANCE, DESIGN, CAMERA,BATTERY LIFE, SCREEN, SOFTWARE.....
@@R8V10 If that is true why does iphones need battery replacement sooner than most android phones even though most android do have much faster charging.
Using x100 pro, and getting 9-10hrs SOT with 5G enabled and pretty medium to heavy usage, mediatek is doing wonders silently, and ofcourse Vivo deserves praise too. Bravo Vivo, x100 pro is a huge W in terms of camera and now battery life
Dude, how does that even matter. The efficiency of the batteries matter only when the phone weighs significantly lighter than the competition. You have an efficient mileage giving car, but it fuels capacity is low.
Smaller screens can help you save battery life. The S24 Ultra has a higher resolution screen, so it uses more power. But yeah, the 16 Pro is a better buy than the Pro Max because of its battery life.
@popeye199506 if you are talking about the crappy videos while scrolling, than the video creator was noob, he can't scroll enough fast to generate 120fps.. because LTPO won't refresh the screen 120 times when the CPU only generating 90 frames.. that extra 30 refresh is a wasted energy, if any crappy phone refreshing 120 times when it's only 90 different frames are generated.. you can scroll fast enough even on iPhone to reach the 120fps, but it's meanigless, but we arr happy you care more the 2-3 sec between content switching like thr content itself (what is probably just 60fps limited just like this video, so you will only watch on 60Hz.. 😂)
The impressive thing about this video is the time and care taken to make sure all the variables with different phones are minimised so that it provides a fair test. Kudos to work involved in making this video for the rest of us. Deserves a like and subscribe!
I own both the Vivo X100 Pro and Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 6 (also owned the S24 Ultra before selling it) and I can confirm the X100 Pro performs so much better than the Samsung counterparts. Mediatek smokes Snapdragon this year. Props to them for turning it around
16 Pro and S24U being so close is really impressive, love to see it as a regular sized Pro user though i may keep my 13 Pro another year or two. 16PM besting the 15PM by two hours is wild! Look forward to seeing if things improve even further with iOS updates
I currently got the 15 Plus but am looking for a smaller iPhone. Now should I get the 16 or 16 Pro (money is no issue luckily). 16 is slimmer and lighter, the 16 Pro has a better camera? Alghough the 16 has a lower, as in better, f-stop on the main shooter than the 16 Pro. Mhhhh I really like the 15 Plus battery life, do you think I should get the 16 Pro (and put it in 60 Hz mode because I mostly read and text on it only) or just get the 16 for a lighter and slimmer device?
There is no point in doing 60hz mode. All the pro screens are variable refresh rate LPTO that can go as low as 1hz instead of being a locked 60hz. The pros are not locked to 120hz.
Last year 15 plus has the best iphone battery, so that had to be in this testing. The next one can have both plus phones from this year and last year, up against the 16 pro max
Mahn first you made the iPhone 16 vs S24 Ultra vs Pixel 9 Pro XL camera comparison and now this A 13* Phone battery drain test!! You are not The Tech Chap but The Tech Chad!!
@@Randomdude21-e also a different chip and OS 😏yes, androids do need bigger battery, since their OS is more battery hungry..and SD is more hungry than Dimensity. By "squeezing" it also means packing a much much bigger battery into the same thickness, making it also cool better and cost less along the way.. so yeah.. with their OS and Chip, they got a much more than any other brand. Not to mention how the test would be ridiculous in cold, where Honor would keep the same performance, while everyone else would flop, since its the only one using carbon-silicon battery.
You did well by keeping screens on 120hz and not lowering them to be on par with base iPhones. The test should give results that can mean something in real life and in reality nobody would go with 60hz when its 120hz by default
He left all the phones at their default settings, which means the S24 Ultra and Pixel 9 Pro XL are running at a reduced resolution than they're capable of and in the Pixels case, it's running at 60hz by default.
The new iPhones have way longer battery life than previous generation and the highest performance benchmark scores out of all phones here. Yet people say they are the same iPhones year after year.
@@JonnyD3ath Just solely having S Pen is already one of its features.There is much more features with S24U than iPhone,having all that power of SoC but can’t fully utilise it is a waste.
So if you left the phones at their default settings that means the S24 Ultra and Pixel 9 Pro XL are running at a power resolution than the iPhones, and in the Pixels case it's running at only 60 hz. Wish you changed the settings so it'd be more comparable to the pro iPhones as that's the price range they're both in.
What a video, iphone 16 Pro Max blew out and lasted 2 hrs longer that the previous iteration, just wow .. Always a banger Tech Chap, keep up the amazing work ❤
Considering the 16 Pro Max has a nearly 20% smaller battery than the Honor and 15% smaller than the Vivo, it's incredible that it kept up with them and practically tied with the Honor. The Vivo was equally impressive for the last 10% lasting a full hour under gaming load.
Not buying android from anyone other then Samsung or google. I dont care how long they last or features. Pixel beating 15/16 pro means I’ll buy that and be happy.
Top3: 1. Vivo X100, 5400mAh, 12h22m 2. Honor M6 Pro, 5600 mAh, 11h33m 3. IPhone 16 PM, 4676 mAh, 11h29m IPhone dropped 5% overnight, which is the second worst among all phones, that's not very good
I wonder how Pixel would fear with Now Playing OFF, as it's the only one that is always listening for music and that takes a hit in battery. Obviously there are many easy ways to optimise any of these devices much further, like: - Sleep mode while sleeping - On Pixel there is a setting that leaves Data ON even when on WiFi for quick switching in case WiFi drops but uses more battery (ON by default), others will have similar things - Turning OFF gestures that you might not use like double tap on the back, etc.
That's a drastic increase in battery life for Pixel compared to the previous generation..it beaten 6 other flagships including S24 ultra, that's impressive..I thought it would die first.
I’m glad the Pixel 9 Pro XL beat the S24 Ultra, well I have a soft spot for Pixel phones as I’ve used a couple of them and am not a fan of the software on Samsung phones.
@@Manuel-rl6um Oh stop trying to make it sound more impressive than it really is. At its default settings it's running at a lower resolution and only at 60hz.
it's wrong dude, 16 pro is same last year he just make this video with 16 pro is brand new but after 3 months will be maybe in 10 place haha Vivo is the in camera and battery in 2024 🫡
Seeing the Dimensity 9300's outstanding battery performance, i now understand why Samsung is going with the Dimensity 9400 for the new tab s10 series. I have the Tab s9. Superb tablet but the battery drains too fast for my liking (Snap 8 gen 2). S10 tablets will prolly be better in battery life. Dear Tom, I'd love to see either the S24 or S24plus in your next battery test. Thanks.
Great test!! However the result against s24 Ultra is completely different on Mrwhosetheboss battery test, S24 ultra beats Iphone 16 pro max easily in it. Strange to see it being so different..Consequence of chip lottery?
Probably just the apps used in each test particularly the games and possibly also the brightness level. Some screens might be more efficient at lower brightness and others higher. Whilst all the same in each test not necessarily the same between tests. The game seemed to eat the s24 battery very fast.
At 6:35 you hear him talk about using them for a bit for the software to optimize the battery. This test was based on batteries optimized to the users behavior MrWTB has little to no optimisations on the batteries
No feedback man, you are amazing at your work and thanks for making this video so quickly. I was confuse to choose between 16 pro or 16 pro max but 2hr 30 min more SOT really makes the decision easier. Thanks Tom 👍🏽
Please could you test the iPhone pro max’s all the way back as you can? Would be good to see the improvements over the years. Thanks for another awesome video!
@@arbernuka3679 Incorrect, you are right that you can switch it off, this wasn't the case originally, but the 24 ultra needs to be changed in settings to 120, out the box is 60hz. you can google it, but my partner also has one it's a default setting Source samsungs official website :The Motion smoothness feature allows you to adjust the refresh rate to remove afterimages and blurs from fast-moving images. By default, the refresh rate of Galaxy phones is set to 60 Hz, but you can improve it to enable smoother movement on the display by changing to a higher refresh rate of 120 Hz. Learn how to set your phone's refresh rate in the guide below.
@@Manuel-rl6um all of them have bigger batteries about 6% more. 16 has slightly smaller than pro same for 16 plus vs pro max. If the former outlasted pro so I would expect plus to do as well

thanks for the video! its a pain to shoot but really nice to watch. one small detail that i really liked was the night stand by, that was really important to know
I’ll make sure to include it in the next one! Thank you
I'm not surprised at the Vivo X 100 Pro winning. That phone has a gigantic 5,400 mAh battery (the phone weighs nearly half a pound).
its not that big battery. Oneplus does also have same size battery. Honor magic 6 pro does have even bigger battery 5,600 mAh. Most android phones do have atleast 5,000mAh batteries.
221 grams.
It's still lighter than both pro max versions of the iPhone and also the Samsung
I believe the 16 Pro Mas has less than 5,000mAh
@@rechiecanonigo3800 yes 4676 mah
@@rechiecanonigo3800 yep it is about 4600mah
And now there's the vivo x200 pro 😂😂😂 which has a 6,000mah battery lol so new test
Never would’ve thought my future phone (iPhone 16 Pro max) would be in the top 3 wow I’m impressed and even more excited cause my 13 pro max has been dying super fast, going from 100 to lower than 50 in 2/3 hours.. so massive upgrade for me
Could've just put another battery at apple, I don't find the 16PM a worthy upgrade still except that I like how light it feels (the 13PM is a brick lol).
What did you do to your 13PM to have the battery in this condition? I had mine for 3 years, extreme usage for most days (6-8h SOT) with 85% battery health left, lasting me all day easily. I charge my phone overnight with a slow charger. Maybe that's the key.
Top job! I'm dizzy just imagining the amount of work going into this video
That Vivo man!👏👏
And to think the next versions are coming out with 6000mah batteries at the end of this year. 😬😬
13+ hours battery life bro 😂😂😂
Same with the OnePlus and Oppo, also 6000mah
Viva is a good phone with decent cameras but the bloatware let it down.
@@sarankirthic4532 in flagship vivo don't install bloatware
also with 100 watt charger
thanks for actually including the 15 pro aswell. Most of the videos exclude the 15 pro, just got the 15 pro max and then regular 15
iPhone 16 pro max lasting 2 hours more than the iPhone 15 pro max is INSANE! Such a big difference, looks like it’s finally time for me to consider upgrading after around 4yrs coming from my iPhone 12
Mee to
They same its the same 😂
It’s weird because for he first half of the video they were holding at about the same percentage the whole time and then suddenly the gap started widening as the battery got lower and it ended with a massive difference.
exactly... my 11pro is still going great with 89% battery life, but this time I feel like its worth it
Holy that is so good. They cheaped out on the battery materials on 14 pro and 15 pro, but 16 should be better again cause my 15 pro is at 92% battery life after just one year
It's impressive how a single device can lead in almost all the aspects. I had seen how several people are addressing negative against Apple but according to what I see Apple leads in terms of: PERFORMANCE, DESIGN, CAMERA,BATTERY LIFE, SCREEN, SOFTWARE.....
Now we waiting for part when you charging this phones:D
The faster the changing the more adverse affect on battery.
@@R8V10 If that is true why does iphones need battery replacement sooner than most android phones even though most android do have much faster charging.
@@jesukxd8494 I’m not sure but this is the general consensus.
@jesukxd8494 yeah 💯 correct
@@R8V10 I think heat is problem not charging speed.
Using x100 pro, and getting 9-10hrs SOT with 5G enabled and pretty medium to heavy usage, mediatek is doing wonders silently, and ofcourse Vivo deserves praise too. Bravo Vivo, x100 pro is a huge W in terms of camera and now battery life
Iphone 16 pro on par with s24ultra its crazy😂 3577mAh battery! 16 pro is the best flagship for its size!
Dude, how does that even matter. The efficiency of the batteries matter only when the phone weighs significantly lighter than the competition. You have an efficient mileage giving car, but it fuels capacity is low.
Smaller screens can help you save battery life. The S24 Ultra has a higher resolution screen, so it uses more power.
But yeah, the 16 Pro is a better buy than the Pro Max because of its battery life.
@@Uncle_Drew0227 still doesn't change the fact that a 3500 mah battery gives a 5000 mah battery a run
@@tawsiaislam2855 glad the 16 Pro is better than the 15 Pro. Battery on the 15s were not the greatest.
@@armel6157 16 pro not pro max
Everyone talking about iphones but that vivo really surprised me i didn't expect that phone to last longer than all
4676mAH > vs 5kmAH is so funny
Optimisation is key
You do know it's not just about battery capacity.
So funny is that you don't even know Iphone did't really run in 120Hz and just around 90Hz ,
Honor M6 Pro has 5600mAh and Vivo X100 Pro has 5400mAh, so not even a "simple" just 10% bigger battery, they are 20-25% bigger batteries.
@popeye199506 if you are talking about the crappy videos while scrolling, than the video creator was noob, he can't scroll enough fast to generate 120fps.. because LTPO won't refresh the screen 120 times when the CPU only generating 90 frames.. that extra 30 refresh is a wasted energy, if any crappy phone refreshing 120 times when it's only 90 different frames are generated.. you can scroll fast enough even on iPhone to reach the 120fps, but it's meanigless, but we arr happy you care more the 2-3 sec between content switching like thr content itself (what is probably just 60fps limited just like this video, so you will only watch on 60Hz.. 😂)
The impressive thing about this video is the time and care taken to make sure all the variables with different phones are minimised so that it provides a fair test. Kudos to work involved in making this video for the rest of us. Deserves a like and subscribe!
That vivo x100 pro is a monster when it comes to battery
I own both the Vivo X100 Pro and Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 6 (also owned the S24 Ultra before selling it) and I can confirm the X100 Pro performs so much better than the Samsung counterparts. Mediatek smokes Snapdragon this year. Props to them for turning it around
iPhones from 100% to 10%🤡
iPhones from 10% to 0%🗿
indian comment
add Iphone 100 to 99% 👌
16 Pro and S24U being so close is really impressive, love to see it as a regular sized Pro user though i may keep my 13 Pro another year or two. 16PM besting the 15PM by two hours is wild!
Look forward to seeing if things improve even further with iOS updates
I currently got the 15 Plus but am looking for a smaller iPhone. Now should I get the 16 or 16 Pro (money is no issue luckily). 16 is slimmer and lighter, the 16 Pro has a better camera? Alghough the 16 has a lower, as in better, f-stop on the main shooter than the 16 Pro. Mhhhh I really like the 15 Plus battery life, do you think I should get the 16 Pro (and put it in 60 Hz mode because I mostly read and text on it only) or just get the 16 for a lighter and slimmer device?
go and get the 16 pro man
There is no point in doing 60hz mode. All the pro screens are variable refresh rate LPTO that can go as low as 1hz instead of being a locked 60hz. The pros are not locked to 120hz.
Get the pro. They only differ the size on the pro and promax model right now. All features and others are the same.
I’m happy the smaller phones are still getting great battery life. Not everyone wants a mammoth sized phone
Last year 15 plus has the best iphone battery, so that had to be in this testing. The next one can have both plus phones from this year and last year, up against the 16 pro max
Would’ve liked to see an Xperia 1 VI on here. It is a criminally underrated phone
Mahn first you made the iPhone 16 vs S24 Ultra vs Pixel 9 Pro XL camera comparison and now this A 13* Phone battery drain test!! You are not The Tech Chap but The Tech Chad!!
Haha it’s been a busy week
@@Thetechchap Yeah, can imagine:)
looking forward to this the most, I appreciate you!
What Honor is squeezing from that chip is just amazing. ...and its not an accident, last year they were at the top as well.
Squeezing what? Battery? It has the biggest battery, 1000mAh more then iphone😂
@@Randomdude21-e also a different chip and OS 😏yes, androids do need bigger battery, since their OS is more battery hungry..and SD is more hungry than Dimensity. By "squeezing" it also means packing a much much bigger battery into the same thickness, making it also cool better and cost less along the way.. so yeah.. with their OS and Chip, they got a much more than any other brand. Not to mention how the test would be ridiculous in cold, where Honor would keep the same performance, while everyone else would flop, since its the only one using carbon-silicon battery.
The standby time over night is a genuine idea to add to your battery test results
vivo x100 pro Hello my children enjoy the show lol 😂
That MediaTek SoC is crazy efficient
You did well by keeping screens on 120hz and not lowering them to be on par with base iPhones. The test should give results that can mean something in real life and in reality nobody would go with 60hz when its 120hz by default
He left all the phones at their default settings, which means the S24 Ultra and Pixel 9 Pro XL are running at a reduced resolution than they're capable of and in the Pixels case, it's running at 60hz by default.
The new iPhones have way longer battery life than previous generation and the highest performance benchmark scores out of all phones here. Yet people say they are the same iPhones year after year.
That's because iPhone does not have the functionality like the S24U even if it has better performance and battery life than S24U.
@@AkaneKurokawa96what practical functionality does the S24U have over iPhone?
base iPhone 15 and 16 barely have difference in battery life considering iPhone 16 is marketed to have a big battery boost lol
@@JonnyD3ath Just solely having S Pen is already one of its features.There is much more features with S24U than iPhone,having all that power of SoC but can’t fully utilise it is a waste.
@@AkaneKurokawa96 so it has a pen, that people barely use. Great. 🤣🤦🏼♂️
So if you left the phones at their default settings that means the S24 Ultra and Pixel 9 Pro XL are running at a power resolution than the iPhones, and in the Pixels case it's running at only 60 hz. Wish you changed the settings so it'd be more comparable to the pro iPhones as that's the price range they're both in.

What a video, iphone 16 Pro Max blew out and lasted 2 hrs longer that the previous iteration, just wow .. Always a banger Tech Chap, keep up the amazing work ❤
After watching this, one thing is clear; that you are damn rich.
Considering the 16 Pro Max has a nearly 20% smaller battery than the Honor and 15% smaller than the Vivo, it's incredible that it kept up with them and practically tied with the Honor. The Vivo was equally impressive for the last 10% lasting a full hour under gaming load.
Vivo is great but.. iPhone 16 beating some phones with more than 5000mah is amazing!
Not buying android from anyone other then Samsung or google. I dont care how long they last or features. Pixel beating 15/16 pro means I’ll buy that and be happy.
you sound like a smart, reasonable person lol
Same... Not to mention that Xiaomi and Vivo only offer 3 years of OS updates in 2024. That's pathetic.
Seems reasonable if you're in the US. Which is a totally different market than the rest of the world.
I am completely opposite, I have VIVO X100 PRO
Top3:
1. Vivo X100, 5400mAh, 12h22m
2. Honor M6 Pro, 5600 mAh, 11h33m
3. IPhone 16 PM, 4676 mAh, 11h29m
IPhone dropped 5% overnight, which is the second worst among all phones, that's not very good

Yeah, the whole point of doing a video is to show it. If this was Instagram then you would expect a photo you’re not very bright.
Surprised how iPhone 16 Pro Max surpassed OnePlus 12 😱
Bro dont bully them like that
optimized OS is key mate. honor last less compared to vivo even though it was 200 mAh more.. :)
Not surprised at all. Optimisation is key!
@@projectz9776 see you in OnePlus 13 video bye 🤘
Not surprised that much. Optimisation matters most. Ain't no way a 4700 mah battery will be able to beat a 5400 mah battery without optimisations
I wonder how Pixel would fear with Now Playing OFF, as it's the only one that is always listening for music and that takes a hit in battery.
Obviously there are many easy ways to optimise any of these devices much further, like:
- Sleep mode while sleeping
- On Pixel there is a setting that leaves Data ON even when on WiFi for quick switching in case WiFi drops but uses more battery (ON by default), others will have similar things
- Turning OFF gestures that you might not use like double tap on the back, etc.
I wonder how the Pixel would fare if it was actually set to its full resolution, as well as 120hz.
Could you include s23ultra in your next test as I would like to know how my battery fairs up to a year newer phone
For anyone wondering whether the 15PM is on iOS 18 or 17, it's on iOS 18, based on the signature iOS wallpaper.
that was surprising. 16pm outlasted 15pm by freaking 2 hours. thats a great result!
That's a drastic increase in battery life for Pixel compared to the previous generation..it beaten 6 other flagships including S24 ultra, that's impressive..I thought it would die first.
That's with Now Playing, Hey Google, Gestures and more activated by default. It can easily be improved further.
And the smaller pixel 9 pro beats it
I’m glad the Pixel 9 Pro XL beat the S24 Ultra, well I have a soft spot for Pixel phones as I’ve used a couple of them and am not a fan of the software on Samsung phones.
@@Manuel-rl6um Oh stop trying to make it sound more impressive than it really is. At its default settings it's running at a lower resolution and only at 60hz.
the efficiency of mediatek on vivo really surprised me!
thanks for video :)
This year’s 16 Pro looks promising. Best compact flagship of the year!
It’s crazy 6.3 inches is considered compact
as opposed to last years 16 pro?
it's wrong dude, 16 pro is same last year he just make this video with 16 pro is brand new but after 3 months will be maybe in 10 place haha Vivo is the in camera and battery in 2024 🫡
Seeing the Dimensity 9300's outstanding battery performance, i now understand why Samsung is going with the Dimensity 9400 for the new tab s10 series. I have the Tab s9. Superb tablet but the battery drains too fast for my liking (Snap 8 gen 2). S10 tablets will prolly be better in battery life.
Dear Tom, I'd love to see either the S24 or S24plus in your next battery test. Thanks.
Great test!! However the result against s24 Ultra is completely different on Mrwhosetheboss battery test, S24 ultra beats Iphone 16 pro max easily in it. Strange to see it being so different..Consequence of chip lottery?
Probably just the apps used in each test particularly the games and possibly also the brightness level. Some screens might be more efficient at lower brightness and others higher. Whilst all the same in each test not necessarily the same between tests. The game seemed to eat the s24 battery very fast.
Iphone 16 pro max audio was on during the entire testing on mrwhosetheboss video.
At 6:35 you hear him talk about using them for a bit for the software to optimize the battery. This test was based on batteries optimized to the users behavior MrWTB has little to no optimisations on the batteries
the samsung phone was on deep sleep mode which freezes all background apps, the iphone doesn’t do this and deep sleep has a big effect on battery
@@Cupid-9127 if it is a default feature on a system which IOS system has of its own it doesn't matter.
No feedback man, you are amazing at your work and thanks for making this video so quickly. I was confuse to choose between 16 pro or 16 pro max but 2hr 30 min more SOT really makes the decision easier. Thanks Tom 👍🏽
both will last you all day
Damn now I wish I waited a year before getting the 15 Pro
Please could you test the iPhone pro max’s all the way back as you can? Would be good to see the improvements over the years. Thanks for another awesome video!
I have an iPhone 14 Pro Max so would be good to see that against other newer Pro Maxes .

Most likely on 60hz instead of 120hz, you can’t change it on the pro max iirc but the ultra 24 defaults to 60 which is most likely why
