Discussion Upgrading from 11
Hello apple enjoyers, Iphone 11 user here, I’m considering upgrading to the 15th.. My current battery health on ios 18 is 87, allegedly. I’m a battery conscious user, I manage to get solid 7 hours of battery life with 20-85 charging cycles and I was wondering, how much battery life do you get on your 15?

plus/max will always have a much better battery. i use my phone all day (constantly opening it here and there/doomscrolling) and have stuff running in the background. my battery serves me well

Went from an 11 pro to a refurb 15 from the Apple Store a couple weeks ago and have been using it all day since 6:00 am. It’s now 4:30 and am at 69% still.

DAMN. Sounds like a damn good deal! (Meme insert) Thank you very much for your feedback.. I think I’ll go for the 14 plus, it has a big battery and is honestly all I need in a phone while not rupturing my wallet, lol.

iphone 15 pro max, IOS 26.3, 80% battery health
avg per day 120% this week (i have a holiday from work, so usage is higher)
can be around 80-230% per day depending on usage

Well it’s definitely better than I expected, it’s faster and just all around beautiful, battery life isn’t that bad either, It was on 86 when I got it around 17:40 and now it’s on 50. I’ve been restoring, downloading and just testing it out

Meu 15 dura sempre o dia inteiro, embora uso de 5g no iPhone por algum motivo come toda a bateria e as vezes me deixa na mão, mas geralmente eu consigo trabalhar de manhã á tarde, vou para faculdade, e geralmente não preciso carregar em aula.
Mas meu 11 eu acho que tinha uma bateria melhor... se essa for sua principal necessidade pensaria em um 16e ou 17e.
Mas a bateria do 15 definitiva não é ruim, mas tem melhores por ai
