How much screen time are y’all getting on your 15 pro? So far I’m averaging about 5.5 hours which honestly is pretty damn bad as I don’t do anything on my phone except browse IG/Twitter/NT and iMessage.
Been reading reports all over that the battery is ****** across the board except for the 15 plus.

Not sure about how the max should be in terms of battery life but it is longer than my 12P. Not AS long as I’d expect but then again I’ve been on it a lot lately.
I’ve averaging usage of 5.5hrs but always have 30%+ at the end of the day. Not bad but not as great as they advertised.

Best battery I ever had on an iPhone was my 11PM. Always felt like my 14PM wasn't as good, even when I first got it.

I sound like a broken record but I really hate the battery for my 14PM.

Mine went downhill after iOS 17 update. Hopefully it'll treat my kid better.

Agreed, 14PM was the first iPhone I had checked by Apple because I was positive it was defective.
It passed their test so I had to pay more attention to the apps that were indicated as power hogs but that's something I never had to do with the 13PM.
Jury is still out on the 15PM, but I am using it heavy heavy... haven't been annoyed by the battery drain yet but not impressed either. This post prompted me to activate monitoring.

I should have took mine in earlier to get looked at. When I first bought the phone I backed up from my last device so I thought that was the problem. Started as new and I thought it helped but naw this battery is just not good. 11PM is the goat battery.

Update to 17 with a 13 Pro?

Decided to hold out for now. Way too many issues in the beginning and not good enough for me to upgrade from my 12 pro yet.

Updated my 13 Pro to iOS 17 and Imma be honest. I'm not a big fan.
I for sure hate the messages update. I need to take an extra step to access my keyboards.

Yeah, not a fan of the list feature to access the keyboards.

I have no issues with my 13PM. The battery does drain fairly quickly and my battery life is at 90%. Think I'll go for the 16 (maybe) depending on the features and design

you guys with the 12 saying the battery is solid…it’s because the radiation in your dome is charging the batter, obviously….

Well, maybe if you took a break from your "home videos" you'd realize how good the battery life truly was.
You freak nasty.

After my irritating experience at the other official Apple replace in town I had an appointment after work today to get my 12 mini battery replaced at the actual Apple store. Chose the last appointment because I can get away without it on a Friday and that means I could go back at the weekend if it wasn’t done.
But, they could hardly have been more helpful and it was done within the hour.
Didn’t even have to restore my data. Could have really done with it when I was away last week - using the maps was killing it and I started carrying a charger thing with me which I had to use after lunch.
Looking forward to being out all day and not worrying about it.

It was the 9th to 23rd I think.
Some observations:
-S21+ has brighter reds and blues even though they both used AMOLED.
-S21+ is more comfortable to hold since it's completely curved, thinner, and less wide.
-15 Pro Max UI is smoother and slower-paced while the S21+ is faster but has more "hiccups/hanging". 2 year old phone vs brand new device so it's understandable.
-The camera lenses are huge!!!
I'm going to hold up on set-up for now since I don't have my case until later this evening. But I'm hyped to relearn this ecosystem and tbh, I was just bored and wanted to try something new and loved the Magsafe tech and Airtags being used on other devices like wallets and bikes.

Sorry to flood this thread, but I got the cases and Screen protector in so now I gotta decide if I want to use the more stylish and grippy case:
....Or the more elegant but more slippery case with the magsafe stand built in:

Bottom case is better.
Side note. Mine fell out my pocket onto the sidewalk and let’s just say the Titanium isn’t as strong as the Ultra…
