2:07 All of the robotic arms selecting “I am not a robot” is really funny
haha
This is the real battery test I have been waiting for it thanks
I just noticed that the 16 pro had its cellular network on 2 bars whereas the rest of the phones have full bars. Doesn't this impact the battery?
Generally it does because the cellular chip is always trying to connect to a tower further away using more power.
Yes; the phone will need to (try to) send stronger signals to communicate with the tower
Yes the Pro stopped dropping faster when it got more signal bars. I'd be curious as to why it showed a lesser signal at the beginning.
That sheep at 0:33 sent me 🤣
Man I love your intro. Its always so clean

Iphone 16 + and 16 pro max are tied from the beginning
SCAMsung is better
@@Area-gaming-ggcry more iOS is better in all terms excluding the display part
@ray78737 how?
@@Area-gaming-ggMmmm no
@@ray78737 not really. cameras are more of a subjective part and performance is also very similar.
I haven’t noticed the “major battery gains” that apple been touting. I bought the 16 pro because it was implied battery life would be similar to the 15 max pro which it absolutely isn’t. Having to charge my phone half way thru the day and again at night and that’s even with light use, just like in the video whenever I make calls the phone drains really quickly, have barely even used the camera because of how much the battery drains.
Used to put my 15 pro max through its paces and would last me all day, even when I would be on like 20% later in the evening that would last me till I fell asleep because that 20% was like 2+ hours.
Will change to the pro max which is unfortunate as I love the pro form factor.
Oh, that sucks. I hope with updates, those promises become reality
Obviously having a smaller phone means a smaller battery. No way the 16 Pro's gonna have battery life close to the 15 Pro Max.
Who even said that?
If u truly wanted better battery u should've gone with the Pro Max and not a smaller battery... iPhone 16 Pro 👎 everyone knows the smaller pro and regular 16 have smaller batteries, should've saved more money for higher end 16 ProMax
Your biggest mistake is buying the 16 when you had the 15. Virtually no difference 😂 oh well I guess you had some money to burn
I purchased the 16 Plus after exchanging my iPhone 14. I believe 16 Plus is the best value iPhone this year. It’s an amazing phone and a battery powerhouse. I love it.
Me too, I exchanged my iPhone 13 Pro for the 16 plus and it was a great decision by the looks of it :)
I'm saying pass to a 60hz panel in 2024
@@mikesmithson6805 joke’s on you
How is battery life after the update?
@@mikesmithson6805 joke’s on you 🤡
I noticed that the iPhone 16 pro didn't have a full strong cell connection, wondering if that's why the battery would have dropped quicker?
i got disappointed in 16 pro watching this bc i just switched to it from 13 pro max and thought the battery must be at least the same but nope
Yeah I noticed it also. Could possibly the reason for it's early downfall.
@@haelfrancisco4409 i really hope it’s just a software thing and they refine the battery drain for the pros because both groups had the same battery
TRUST ME 16 PRO has bad network cell reception, its too bad. in my cabin it shows only 1 bar, while rest of the phones show 2-3 bar easily all the time and my previous 15 pro also used to show 2-3 bars, but iphone 16 pro sometimes loses all signal or at best shows only 1 bar
But phonebuff does multiple trials for each test. So I'm not sure if that would have been a factor in all of the test. In fact the video got a little late, only because earlier he was getting inconsistent results across runs.
really love phonebuff tests
Getting the 16 plus soon!
great battery from 16 Pro Max considering it isn’t at a dreadful 60Hz all the time 😂
Yeah I could never buy a brand new $800+tax iPhone knowing it's only fukin 60hz ... But the only upside is atleast they don't give u last year's chipset cause that was disgusting shady low-ball type of scam and so many users had no idea Apple been doing that for years

We need an iPhone 16 vs 16 Pro (A18 vs A18 Pro) speed test, please make it happen bruv
Cheers
Love the iPhone Peo
10% difference between them in benchmarks, unnoticeable in real world but games run a bit smoother on the pro phones.
The more interesting comparison would be a17 pro vs a18
@@irtiza4262 yup really that need that too!
Im not sure if you noticed but the iPhone 16 pro appears to I'm assuming NOT connected to your mini cell tower as the signal is showing 2 bars vs 4 bars on the rest for a good amount of the test and then it jumped to 4 bars
This is the most honest and practical way of testing the batteries of iPhone
The 16 pro only had 2 bars on the celluar signal for the first half of the test, the poor cell service increases battery drain quite a bit. Other phones had full signal.
the real battery test. thanks
I think you should add a comparison table to the previous best batteries (iPhones/all phones). Other than that, nice work :)
It’s on their website
they do this every year and by the way no one talks about how apple HAS NOT MADE A BETTER BATTERY THAN 13 PRO MAX YET
@@carlosmendoza8149Yeah every time I wonder how good was that phone in battery and also how good compared to the rest of the world back then
im planning to buy the pink ip16 plus thanks for this
0:32 OMG, the iSheep 🐏🐑😂😂😂
1- The Pro Model (non max) has its cellular connection at half the bars of others, this is enough to skew the results.
2- How come you have a mini cell tower in your home, do network providers provide a special piece of kit for each home like broadband/wifi, mind sharing the pictures of those on any social media?
1 - Doesnt make a difference, its still being used
2 - First time on this channel? I'll tell you a secret app to know this stuff.. It starts with G and ends with e.. Its called Google and its free to use
Cope harder iSheep 🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@tds397 I myself am fedup of Apple and their unethical practice of not including AI in my regular 15, super overpriced battery replacement and nerfing the battery life after updates.
Thinking of switching to Samsung and reasonably priced S24 Ultra (today after discounts), get a life outside internet and stop putting people in boxes.
I have a question: Did you test this on iOS 18.1? If not, could you retest these, maybe not on the channel, but off channel like you did with certain phones.
iOS 18.1 will come out on 30th of October or so according to my knowledge (only the beta is out yet)
@@TylerTheDevourer I mean they’re on the 7th beta, so I figure by now that things have probably improved a pretty good amount since the first beta.
nice test bro 👍
Yooo buddy phone buff dropped new video!
The fact the pro can't beat out the standard equivalent is ridiculous
I bought the 16 pro max. The battery is INSANE. I am blown away by how long it lasts
How long does it last I'm thinking of getting one
@@सुजयपन्तwhat’s phone you coming from ?
Get a samsung, thats a suggestion from the bottom of my heart seriously @सुजयपन्त
ive heard that before and i now ordered an iphone 16 pro. had samsungs for the last 8 years and especially the exynos variants always have been really bad. ever since usb c and sideloading in europe i am finally ready to make the jump. however in the recent battery tests it seems like suddely the s24 ultra beats the iphone for some reason? in my experience and with the people that i talk to, the iphones are usually miles ahead, even the "bad" ones like the iphone 13. especially standby drain seems to be a huge problem for samsung and i can confirm that. i made a 5 hour train ride recently with the phone just idling in my pocket and being on my laptop. when i arrived and got off the train, literally 50% of my battery was gone. i hope the 16pro that i will get later today is better. pro max was too big for me.
@@JPK1337you don't have to worry about battery life if your android is equipped with snapdragon 8 gen 2 or later. Newer exynos like the 2400 is good too but it isn't as efficient as snapdragon. Apple on the other hand already achieved great efficiency years ago, that's why people still buy older iphones
My guess with the bad start of the iPhone 16 Pro is that it actually wasn't fully charged. Apple mentions that to prevent faster battery degradation, they discharge the battery to 95% once it reaches 100% and then charges back to 100% in a loop until it stops charging.
It probably was on this low when you unplugged it but iOS still reports it as "100%"
I never knew that
I knew that, if I charge my iPhone overnight then when I look at coconut battery it’s actually at 97 percent or so
Why dont they add ltpo to the 60hz iPhones so its 60-1hz so its even more efficient..
Because LTPO is actually pretty expensive still. That's why you also don't find that on cheaper Android phones but only on flagships
@@Raja995mh33Doesn’t the S24 and S24+ have it though?
I mean obviously it doesn’t make a difference in real world usage.
@@Weaselszone yea I think so

bruh, pure performance probably better on ip 16, but 60hz lol, i would for sure want very little worse processor and 120hz

@@pawlox1300 I never mentioned Speedtest. I posted this comment under a battery test video so it would be somewhat implied I guess 😅
0:30 i love that sheep reference!
Almost every die-hard apple fanboy is one.
Ngl the Pro seemed butchered from the start, worse connection to the cell tower and also seems to have been on the charger for a while so the battery wasn’t actually fully 100%, you can use coconut battery if you want to check the actual battery percentage. Apparently iOS 18.0.1 improved all the battery issues so it’ll be nice to know if all the phones were updated. Also I thought iPhones were meant to have good battery life when locked? 10% seems like a bit too much
Why don't you do a similar test for the Galaxy series? S24, S24 plus, S24 ultra
I am using 16 plus. Best battery I have seen so far in any smartphone
Can you please compare the battery efficacy of iPhone 16 with dark mode vs light mode?
Last time when you compared the dark mode with light mode of iPhone 12, you concluded a net gain of over an hour of battery life with dark mode
honestly ive switched from a pixel to the iphone 16 and the battery life is beyond my expectations, i use my phones for doordash, with the pixel if i start work at 9am, by noon not only is the phone at 20% but its also so hot its throttling. while the iphone 16 will have 60% and still be nice to hold and no throttling. typically end the day with 7 hours of screen on time.
Yeah I switched to 16 pro max from s23 ultra, 16 pro Max is much better
@@TheDeV-e5o the simplicity is honestly a breath of fresh air from the world of android. I love customization on android but it’s so easy to break things accidentally
@@edms3656 I used to love Android when I was younger. In the end I go back to iPhone because in the end, I realize I prefer stability over customization.

@@edms3656that’s what I’m saying! I’ve used android phones my whole life. I’ve switched to the 15 pro in 2024 and it’s nice to experience something new
Great battery life🤍
Mighty impressive of the pro and plus models. They should do a gaming only test like pubg or genshin impact.
can you compare old gen flagships battery like s9+ poco f1 oneplus 6t or oneplus 8 to somthing like the op12 s24u so we should know how much battery gain we get if we upgrade to them??
Awesome test ❤
The 16 not doing any better at all than the 15 at launch seems a bit off, probably iOS 18 battery drain issues… Would be really nice of you to tell us which exact OS version is in use for every video.
Still impressive performance on the Plus and Pro Max ! And the Pro models doing as good as the standard ones with larger, 120 Hz screens and more powerful chips is not bad despite Apple claiming they should do better.
certainly proves that the people who limit their fps to 60 to save battery are pretty much just limit their own experience 😂
@@outrider425Limiting fps to 60 or less on a game does save battery. Fps is not the same as Hertz.
@@someonetooknuggets the phone does that automatically anyway
@@outrider425 I don’t really understand buying the Pro model and deactivating one of its core features just to gain a little bit of battery life… When it starts getting low you can turn on power saver and it does the same + other optimizations too.
@@someonetooknuggetsYes it's not the same but you can't have 120fps on a 60hz panel
Nice thank for doing this video ❤❤😊
My iPhone 13 battery is stronger than the 16 and pro model, how long will Apple continue to milk its customers 😂😅
No it’s not.
Excellent Work 🙌🏿
That iSheep reference made me burst out laughing, love it.
Bro that was wild
Not convinced about the low cellular of the iPhone 16 Pro. Could be the reason of quicker battery drain
I expected more from the smaller iPhone 16 models. I was really hoping that they could reach the app cycle test at least.
The big daddy of Battery Test 😎
I got a 13 pro max and idt im going to upgrade this year but ill just buy a plus next year. I dont really see the need for the pro max i only got it because at the time it was the only way to get the bigger screen.
Hopefully on iOS 18.1 Beta 7! Never had a better battery life on my 16 Pro Max!
Glad I got the plus
Best battery on phone with 60 hz refresh rate screen ?
You guys do not post what iOS version you guys are using. iOS 18.0.1 should fix some battery problems
nah it doenst fix anything 16 pro battery is as shit as u can imagine lmao
@@c1umaflex iOS 18.1 Beta 7 is THE BEST EVER on the 16 Pro Max.
Please keep the Phone name and battery meter closer to avoid Eye gymnastic . :)
I just got my iph16 pro and my battery drains 1% every 5 minutes ( i only text on ig and maybe randomly scroll in these minutes), is it normal to drop this fast?
it's not normal.. but there are videos on Yt, which can help you to overcome this issue..
I still think Iphone 16 pro Max is the King, because Iphone 16 plus uses 60hz refresh rate and 16 pro max uses 120hz refresh rate. It's bound to use more power
Tests show that it is dependent on what you do. If you are watching old movies at 24FPS, then the Pros will dial down to 24Hz, whilst the base models will still run at 60Hz. Again, if you are reading, then the Pros will dial down to 1-10Hz, but the base will stay at 60Hz. So, I feel ProMotion battery life is positive for what I do, but if you are continually scrolling, then the base models would be better for battery life.
@PhoneBuff Have you done this with the S24/6 Series (S24, 24+, 24 Ultra, Z Fold 6, Z Flip 6)
Please update the website
this year I chose 16p over 15pm, because of the heat management issue. but by looking at this comparison, 9 hours of active time is good enough or not for daily use, I need some advice... btw, this is first time trying to use an iPhone from Android
If you love your android features don’t think of switching but if you’re going for battery life and maybe optimized gaming experiences then yeah you can switch
I have the s22ultra exynose and want to upgrade is this a good enough upgrade or no
It is if you’re just upgrading for battery but won’t you miss the s-pen
@@paulonwuegbuzie6018 not really mine spen didn't work even at the beginning
Hell yeah new PhoneBuff video!
0:32 🤣
The last battery test you did on standby time with always on display the phones actually did better if I recall correctly it never dropped by 10 points so??? Safe to say keep your always on display these difference on or off at this point.. 😂
15 Pro Max should still be better than 16 Pro. Glad i got that one, since 6.9" would be too much, 6.7" is already at my limit.
The pro models having thinner bezels looks funny
The camera is by far the biggest battery drainer. How could you do a test and not record 4k or RAW anything like that
Iphones battery life is in sane no doubt , but i don't think its an overall better phone than the competition. I feel the S24U might win phone of the year
My problem with iPhone is their battery only last for two years of good battery health, sometimes a year plus, then you have to replace them, on the other hand Android batteries can go up to 6 years without battery replacement.
This is an amazing reviews. But WHY NOT use data only? Realistically a phone is to be used outside with data, and battery use then changes dramatically. You can't compare battery on data, with battery on a steady wifi connection!
iOS 18 is so bad for batterylife , 18.1 beta gives the 16 series an additional 1h
Recently pro phones (not promax) are weaker
I think the Comparison isn’t really good as the two ones would last longer if they wouldn’t have the app cycle test like the small ones
Great!
People are saying that Android 14 improved battery life, could you test older phones?
Android 15 improved battery life on Pixel phones, but not sure how it did for other OEMs, and as Samsung is not releasing for another 3-4 months, it remains unknown.
@@andyH_England I'm referring to Android 14. There were tests done from other RUclipsrs and apparently S24U outperformed all iPhones 16 by a decent margin
I’ve been very disappointed in the 16pro battery.
Its def nothing like Apple claimed at all
0:32 erm... hello isheep
Network strength difference on 16pro
The sheep mask 👌
Will go for max
One reason why Apples own video tests showed such a huge difference is because of frame rate. You seem to forget that the loop you're playing of your own videos are all 60fps. So there is no advantage for the Pro models since they all play at 60fps.
Apples testing uses movies from AppleTV+ and there they can go down to 24-30fps while the standard model remains at 60Hz. That's why they last much longer there
Interesting results
So close
S24 exynos vs snapdragon
Why does Apple say the 16 Plus and 16 Pro have the same level of battery life?
Since the phones don't have their fully furnished software with AI and all. Does it make sense to test them out right now?? Or are you going to retest them after the 18.1 update??

mine is amazing
16 plus sales- 🤡🤡
16 plus battery - 🗿🗿
I think you might’ve stopped charging the 16 Pro when it hit 100% instead of keeping it charging past that to the true 100% so it would’ve stayed saying 100 for as long as the others at the start
It's finally here. It's not official until it's done the #phonebuffstyle
Both smaller models are disappointing tbh
I feel even the 16pro should beat the 16 by a long way been PRO model, it should almost be like the 16plus and then the 16pro max should be way ahead
Let me tell you why the 16 plus and 16 Pro Max battery test come out around the same both have same battery but the Promax has more software in it to bring down the battery so they end up equaling the same I could be wrong though I don't have a iPhone LOL s24 Ultra
Why does the 16 pro have really bad connection the whole time?
Is this done with a sim card and Wi-Fi on?
iPhone 16 Pro vs Samsung Galaxy S24
I'm hoping the OnePlus 13 gets even better battery life than the 16 pro max
Pro means Pro, but it's weaker than Plus 🤣 Pro Max means ultimate, but still weaker than Plus. Well, it's Apple babe! 🤣
🔥🔥
You’d think the variable 120hz display would help with the battery life but isn’t really that much of a power saver like how tech geeks make it out to be. The smaller pro having that feature and having marginally more capacity than thr 16 is proved to be not enough for extra battery life assistance. APPLES deceitful marketing strategy is a scam.
