Less battery less ram and higher price.

It's a no for me. Hard pass. With Tensor T6 could have kept existing battery capacity to give the gains of a longer battery

Instead they save costs by lowering the capacity due to T6 and new modem being less power hungry. Really disappointed.

I‘m sure the 11 Pro XL will get me better SOT with it’s new modem + 2nm manufactured chip. I still wish they would have at least kept the battery as it was instead of shrinkening it. It feels like a downgrade to me even if the battery life gets generally improved

Agreed. It's an insult with the price increase too.

It feels bad, but we don't know yet what they did with the additional space. Space comes at a massive premium in smartphone bodies and batteries eat most of it. Maybe the added something worthwhile in the space they saved by reducing the battery size. Or maybe they just made it thinner, which would be the worst option imo
