    A Disappointment....My Honest Thoughts In A Week!

    That's what your supposed to do with my new phones. Max everything, wi-fi off. Throw everything that you can at it and see how it performs. These phone companies can charge a premium, and supposedly throw in top tier specs, but there is always something that gets done wrong, and in its this...

    A Disappointment....My Honest Thoughts In A Week!

    LOL, I would love to justify my $1000 purchase and its easy to get defensive when someone says something negative about it. Still a good phone, but it has flaws. Usage is not Screen on time LMGTFY

    Usage is not on-screen time. Usage is everything, including listening to music while your screen is off and syncing...

    How can it not affect your usage if the display is chewing through your battery? Correct me if I’m wrong, but If you had a less power hungry display you would get more usage...it would be easier if we could just measure by screen on time like android.

    Just want to clarify that they are all terrible suggestions. I use my phone with max brightness, LTE, true tone off and auto-brightness off. That's why its being chewed and that is why I'm ignoring your silly suggestions. Haven't seen brightness mentioned anywhere... I've been using my...

    First off I always keep an Android in rotation, which is a pixel 2 xl (has its own issues mostly related to the display quality, but a much better battery) Secondly, I never said I hated the phone or iOS, they just have issues...right now I’m at 50% and have 2 h usage and 7 hrs standby, still...

    -Flossy is a youtube phone reviewer. - I believe so Actually I have had plenty of androids and apples and I usually praise the battery life on my iOS devices. I didn't start "complaining" until iOS 11 rolled out, but thanks anyways. Rogue apps, I would expect that on android but not iOS...

    LOL see Flossy Carters review (1:45) the 8+ clearly has DOUBLE the battery life of the X. What else should I prove? I already posted screen shots. All of my apple devices have been crap since iOS 11 rolled out. My 6s+ was stellar for 2 years, then they rolled that out and I would have...

    With all due respect, you shouldn't have to worry about battery draining g apps on a $1000 device, especially an apple.
