battery life

Here's the thing: my father is a heavy user and his 7 Plus usually never dips below 20 percent, but with 11.2 his battery life has discharged before the usual time. Does the X have better battery life? PS: he's not interested on the 8 Plus. Battery usage:

I’ve been sick of having my battery drained and overheated by watching videos on Youtube app, so its been a month I uninstalled it and use youtube on safari instead. Until About a week ago I noticed that Youtube app had an update claiming it fixed the battery drain. I updated it 2 days ago...

I bought my new laptop last week. It's advertised as having up to 10 hours battery life. On the two occasions I've used it unconnected, however, the battery has been down to 80% after just 1 hour. This implies the battery isn't likely to last more than 5 hours. Not acceptable. There's nothing...

For the past couple weeks I have noticed a significant drop in battery life and it has consistently been because of the App Store. I always completely close out the application when I am not using it, yet it still runs in the background. I have also changed my settings to not allow automatic app...

Hi everyone, I was trying to find out how long will the Apple Watch last if connected to AirPods(or any other bluetooth headset) while connecting to the LTE. I know you still can not streaming music at this point, but can still play music saved on the watch. I have the 38mm S3 LTE, which I...

Hey all, I've got a 38mm series 2. I know that if I'm only using that I'd have no shot it lasting for a full 50k ultra run. I'm curious if I use my chest strap heart rate sensor and carry my phone with me how much longer will the watch last? With the chest strap it wont need to use the internal...

I'm wondering whether it's safe to jump back in to the beta pool. I tried running the first public beta of iOS 11 on my 10.5 iPad but battery life was alarming. For anyone running the latest beta on their 10.5", is battery life still an issue? (By this I mean, is it comparable now to battery...

Hiya, I've read endless articles on battery saving in iOS10 and I just wondered whether anyone had found them really helpful. This one has THIRTEEN methods listed: http://www.geeknaut.com/tips-to-save-iphone-battery-191916627.html but is it worth going through and acting on all of them? Is...

Hi all, I've a doubt: what's the impact on a macbook pro 13 inches no touchbar i5 + 256GB + 8GB RAM vs a pimped one, i7 + 512GB * 16GB RAM? Is the battery life affected by the upscale components and how? Thanks!

Hi all, I currently use a 2012 MBA (i7 Ivy Bridge with 8GB of RAM) as my work computer. I end up having to do lots of things in Windows (via VMware Fusion), such as Visio and some other specialized applications, but I love Mac OS (used it for my personal machines for many years). My MBA has...

I just came back from apple store. I left my mbp forg the past 4 days and today they told me they checked the battery and everything is fine. I complained about the awful battery life I had (3-4 hours max). I never reached more than 4 hours. I'm only using Google Chrome and Coda. I just bought a...

Hi! I am not used to observe my screen on time but I am wondering if this battery life is good or bad? I am using an 8-month-old iPhone 6s running iOS 10.2.1 and battery life app shows sometimes 87% capacity left and sometimes 82%. Is this normal?

Hello! What can be the problem of an iPhone 7, new (was bought a month ago), that had a very good battery life, if the battery life suddenly got really worse? We're talking about 100% to 32% in 5-6 hours, with moderated use. Before this started it had a very good battery life - lasting for an...

Use my phone for calls and average talk time for me is around 1 hour and 40 min. Will I be able to get through a whole day of use with the iPhone 7 (Verizon) or iPhone 7 + (Verizon). If I get a iPhone 7 Smart Battery Case will it increase the SAR. Thank you for your time and have a great day.
