How does the iPhone 16 Pro Max's battery life compare to the Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra?

Question

Ich bin gespannt, wie sich die Akkulaufzeit des iPhone 16 Pro Max im Vergleich zum Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra schlägt. Welcher Akku hat dabei die Nase vorn?

Answer 1

According to a full battery test conducted on several smartphones, it has been revealed that the Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra performs better than the iPhone 16 Pro Max which has been marketed as possessing the highest battery life in any iPhone device. There was such a considerable gap between the battery lives of the Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra and the iPhone 16 Pro Max that it can be concluded that the mobile phone has the best battery life in all of the phones that were tested.

The tech chap did the same but with more phones. On his drain test he used brand new phones. S24 ultra gave 9 hours 22 minutes. 16 pro max gave more or less same battery life around 11 hours 30 minutes something. So what is the reason behind it? Why there are like 3 hours difference on Samsung battery life?

Wow, as a die-hard iPhone user, that Samsung battery life is impressive

Edit: just went back to last year’s battery test and the iPhone 15 plus did over 13 hours. The 15 pro max also did 11 hours 41 mins. Would the updated app list you used really make that big of a difference this time round?

It is interesting to see such different results from his battery test and Tech Chaps.

As a first time iphone user with the 15pro, my biggest gripe has been the battery and the Photos app and also the lack of a universal back button/gesture.
And this battery competition has me drooling for the Galaxy.
I’ll patiently wait for the Galaxy 25 ultra and then decide whether to upgrade to the 16PM or not.
