How does the battery life compare between the iPhone 16 and 16 Pro models?

Question

Do the standard models of the iPhone 16 have a noticeably shorter battery life when compared to the iPhone 16 Pro and Pro Max? Would individuals able to use battery with a similar capacity in these phone models have noticeable differences in endurance due to the hardware configurations?

Answer 1

There is indeed a big differentiation when it comes to the battery life of the iPhone 16 in comparison with the Pro variants. When video is played on iPhone 16 Pro, users may get an extra 5 hours in comparison to iPhone 16. Similarly with iPhone 16 Plus in comparison to iPhone 16 Pro Max, the latter gives an extra 6 hours of battery. This larger battery is definitely one of the great benefits of the Pro models.

What about SDR brightness? Some sources say that the regular models will have a 1000 nits max while the Pro models will have a 1200 nits. Can anyone confirm this?

Thanks for the comparison. I really love the ultramarine color but I need always on display. I’ll probably get the black iPhone 16 pro. Hopefully the battery life really is better.
