    Said it last time between the 14PM and S23U, but again, I'm seriously impressed that Samsung has gotten their Ultra this close in battery ccomparisons against the Pro Max. It's a huge upgrade and I hope Samsung continues with it.

      iPhone won despite being on a bad iOS version. The iOS17.0.3 has substantially increased the battery life. Some users are claiming about 15% to 20% improvements without decreasing any performance at all. Looks like Apple has finally optimized the iOS to make the most out of the 3 nm chip

      One UI 6 beta has improved battery life from my experience just using the phone. This test was fair enough but it can definitely change things if he didn't use it as a daily driver as Samsung learns from the users normal usage and adapts the power consumption accordingly to maximize its battery life.

    iOS 17.0.3 improved battery life (without affecting performance) by fixing a software issue that caused iPhones to run warmer than expected, so I'd be curious to know whether this test was done on 17.0.3 or 17.0.2. Excellent video though--I really appreciate the precision with which these tests are done. Calibrating the screen and speakers to match in terms of nits and decibels is fantastic attention to detail!

Whereas the S23U is running an android from a different manufacturer. And then slapping their own custom UI kit and on it and so on etc. So both are impressive. And secondly this is just nitpicking. You can buy both phones and have no battery problems with any of them. All phones nowadays usually have a really solid battery life

Phonebuff battery test is one of the best hats down but some people would like to see 1 hour of TikTok or Twitter or Netflix/Disney+.

    ***Personally***, I think the biggest flaw to this test is Snapchat. Snapchat has ALWAYS favored iOS. Quality is always degraded on the Android version and never fully optimized, so battery drain is way more taxing for Android operated devices.
    Great work as usual, though, with your tests. I don't think anyone comes as close to you in getting the most accurate results as possible.

It takes a little less than an hour for it drop to to 99% so maybe Apple made it a little more accurate? Either way, curious to see what the SD 8 Gen 3 brings to the table.

Although I know that day was pretty light use, but it was still impressive how little power it had used.

However, there are definitely technical differences in the phones such as the chip, battery size, screen resolution, extra features the phones might offer (e.g. the S-Pen sipping a little bit of battery when it's charging on the Galaxy, or the IR sensor activating for Face ID on the iPhone, etc.)

      It doesn’t matter because the screen size is only like .01 inches bigger than the iPhones. Yes it has a little higher resolution but not by much and it has almost a 14 percent bigger battery than the iPhone. Honestly Samsung should be lasting longer with battery life with the way bigger battery but with iPhones super optimized software, 3nm processor (allows more power efficiency) and even having a smaller battery, iPhone is very impressive. If Apple put the same size battery as the Samsung has, it would destroy it even more in test. Samsung is getting there but I feel Apple will always be one step ahead in power efficiency

      No I would expect better from 3nm process. 15 lasts barely any longer than 14.

      @@DragonOfTheMortalKombat because IOS 17.0.3 fixed 15 pro max from overheating, before that battery was getting drained. In short 15 would have demolished s23 if it was updated to the latest iOS version.

      ​@@davidskyler1000No, it's not a problem. You are a topical iphone fan and you don't like Samsung. If the iPhone explodes or catches fire anything you continue to use an iPhone And justifying it. And always you find something wrong about samsung. that's it i don't mean iPhone is bad but thats is truth

    Fair win to the iPhone, but it’s crazy how good Samsung has gotten over the years. GG

      ​@@tapashmajumder2377Agree. Just like when Apple copied the Always on Display feature which caused battery drain issues on the 14 series.
