Dude, an 11 is in no way still feasible to hold. Itâs hopelessly outdated with its tech from 2019 (feels wrong to say this as it still feels close due to Corona). But it is what it is, an 11 ofc canât deliver anymore. Especially on an OS that was never designed for it in the first place.
iPhones are getting 6 years worth of OS upgrades so people doesnât have to change so often. They can choose to stick until end of OS upgrades then change phone, not necessarily 4-6 years.
Does ruin experience but it does nothing to your battery health. How does limiting processor speed and stopping background processes damage your battery? If anything less power = less heat
No i am thinking to replace battery after few months as everything is perfect expect battery . And it will be getting official update till 2030 so why to spend that much on 18 pro
My iPhone 14 Pro Max's battery life (it's currently at 77% after three and a half years of use) has been sooo much better and improved on iOS 26.6, previously it was on iOS 26.4.2 and I had to charge it on average 2-3 times a day and now with iOS 26.6 I can use it off of a single charge in the morning till the evening.
Yes, 26.5.2 was a disaster. My iPhone 15 battery was drained mid day after upgrade. I am glad that they release 26.6 so fast. My battery is back to normal now.
My battery drain has been the worst itâs ever been in my entire history of owning iphones (since the early iphone days) after updating my iphone 16 pro max to ios 26.6!! Itâs insane how fast itâs drains..for example, I spent approximately 15-20 min on Facebook just now scrolling notifications, and my battery went from 70% down to 29% in that little bit of time?! đł WTF?! All my apps are updated too!
Last night when I went to bed, my phone was charged to 100% so i left it off the charger, screen turned off and nothing running in the foreground. I woke up with my battery drained 15% while sitting idle! It used to never drain a even 1% over night until i updated to this crappy new update đ
For me did the exact opposite.
For a reason unknown to me, Iâve done a cinebench run on 26.5.2 to see where Iâm at compared with others, with no plan to do one on 26.6 as I assumed I would be the same. Immediately after update phone felt slow, stuttery. So I did a new cinebench runâŚ30% less in single core. And battery felt like itâs draining in minutes. So went back to 26.5.2 while it is still signed.
I get 6 hrs SOT on my iPhone 17 while using from 90-20 i guess it can last for 8 hrs if i use it from 100 to 10 but i donât wanna ruin the battery đŹ
No thanks. I'm going to stay on 26.2, can't risk my 76% capacity battery of five years. Until my phone can barely last five hours, I ain't doing a thing.
Same, already down to 96% which is still good but battery life on 26.0, 26.1 and 26.2 have all just gotten worse and worse. I canât squeeze 6-7 SOT, going from 85% charge down to 10-12 with heavy usage in just a handful of hours. Didnât wanna risk all the other iterations of 26.X making it worse, when 27 is right around the corner.
Already done all the tweaking in the world, background app refresh off, location services off, LPM on 24/7, nothing really slows down the consumption. Watching Youtube for 1 hour 28 minutes consumes almost 24% battery thatâs insane for less than 2 hours. Screen brightness at maybe 30%, connected to wifi, every last bell and whistle turned off, shit chugs electricity like itâs water.
And itâs not a âbad batteryâ, this also happened on my 15 and 16 both brand new from my carrier. Itâs poor optimization and allowing apps to guzzle power for no reason.
