iPhone 12 vs iPhone 12 Pro Max vs 12 Pro vs 12 Mini vs SE vs 11 vs XR Battery Life DRAIN TEST

iPhone 12 vs iPhone 12 Pro vs 12 Pro Max vs iPhone 12 Mini vs SE vs 11 vs XR Battery Life Drain Test!

The iPhone 12, 12 Pro, 12 Pro Max and iPhone 12 Mini have Apple's A14 Bionic chip inside, which should help with efficiency and use less battery life. And what better way to test it than with a massive battery test between the iPhone 12's and the iPhone SE 2020, iPhone 11 and iPhone XR!

The A14 chip is the reason Apple claims about the same battery life as the previous generation despite having smaller batteries. However, our testing shows a different story..

QUICK! Before watching, which iPhone do you think will come in last place?

[TheKelz]

I’ve been saying this, Mini has an absolutely great battery life for it’s size.

[stevens]

I have the 12pro max now, this phone doesn’t want to die lol. Battery is amazing

[kakeskkd]

Pro tip- You should have had the battery widget on the Home Screen instead of pulling the control centre to check the % every time.

[ludicrous]

Honestly even the battery life of the SE was good enough for me, and the 12 mini is even better. I’m starting to get interested in this new mini phone...

[kennethjezreel]

I think the 11 died before the 12s because the 4k video that you were watching had a lot of blacks in it. The 12s turned pixels off there, the 11 didn't. In addition to the A14 optimizations, I think the OLED screen was a huge gamechanger for the 12s. I think this is also the reason why the 12 mini was so close to the XR.

[andrewr]

keep in mind that the devices with an oled display can conserve battery life when they display darker content because they control brightness per pixel to save battery so that can increase battery by an hour or more.

[ytzoid]

You should have also included the 11 Pro Max.

[Chris-crxf]

Are we not going to talk about how he sat there watching phones die for 10 hours?

[kristinaveirum]

Very impressed on your 10+ hours of battery life test 👏🏼
I was betting on the 12 Pro Max 👌🏼
I know they don’t sell the 11 Pro Max anymore, but it could be fun to see the last year flagship vs this year flagship. So a little fingers crossed for a video on the iPhone 11 Pro Max and the iPhone 12 Pro Max 🤞🏼
Awesome video and great job Brandon 👍🏼👏🏼

THE PHONE MEASURING THE CLOCK

[meine.wenigkeit]

I've been waiting so long to see how the iPhone 12 mini would hold up. I still want it.

[alinasquires]

the dedication to sit and record for 10 hours i could never

[richard]

The iPhone 12 mini has great battery life considering the size of the phone and the battery 🔋 Great video keep up the good work

[Tammacazi]

That surprises me for the SE. I get over 6 hours a day of on screen time easily but it's probably because I do some light gaming and mostly just watch youtube videos at 50% brightness. Really impressive for the 12 mini. Might just look into that phone within the next year!

[lgkjapo]

use the battery widget to show the percentage. It's more visual for the viewers ;)

[mytechlife]

I never expected the iPhone 12 Mini to be as close to the Xr as it was.

[ghosttheprogram]

Brandon standing and recording for over 10 hours just for this...that's next level dedication
Always gotta watch these tests 😊

[xUnicx]

Geez, this takes so long to do. You must have a lot of patience lol

[fightnight]

For most users the iPhone 12 or 12 Pro is the best choice unless you really like the maximum battery or a very compact phone
