When buying a phone, one of the most important criteria for selection is without a doubt the battery life.
At the launch of the iPhone 12, Apple was criticized because the battery performance did not surpass previous versions. But, according to the tests that are emerging on the recently announced iPhone 13 line, there are significant improvements.
One of the most commented tests is the one done by the channel team Mrwhosetheboss , which gathered seven iPhone models (iPhone 13, 13 Mini, 13 Pro, 13 Pro Max, iPhone 12, iPhone 11 and iPhone SE 2020) and subjected the devices to intense tasks simultaneously. Afterwards, the battery level of each device was monitored to conclude which version “survived”.
The results give an advantage to the iPhone 13, which withstood almost 10 hours of intense use without needing to recharge.
Model | screen size (inches) | battery capacity | Duration |
iPhone SE 2020 | 4,7" | 1.821 mAh | 3h |
iPhone 11 | 6,1" | 3.111 mAh | 4h |
iPhone 12 | 6,1" | 2.815 mAh | 5h |
iPhone 13 | 5,4" | 2.406 mAh | 6h |
iPhone 13 | 6,1" | 3.227 mAh | 7h |
iPhone 13 Pro | 6,1" | 3.095 mAh | 8h |
iPhone 13 Pro Max | 6,7" | 4.352 mAh | 9h |
What is the secret of this improvement?
If you think that it is enough to increase the battery capacity to have an autonomy of another level, you are wrong. For the iPhone 13 line, Apple brings the chip Bionic A15, more efficient than the A14 and made software tweaks to optimize performance and reduce energy consumption.
Obviously the conditions of everyday use are different from those indicated in the tests, which will result in different data for users who replicate these tests.
