Since the arrival of the iPhone 12 to the market, there has been a lot of talk about what they could and could not offer us. The theme that has been repeated the most is undoubtedly the charger that is not included in the box, but leaving this aside, what most users are interested in is the battery life shown by the tests when compared to its competitors. more direct such as the Samsung Galaxy S20.
Just knowing the battery capacity of the iPhone 12 we find ourselves with doubts that make us rethink whether it will really be a smartphone to get to the end of the day without problems, even with the new processor and the optimization of iOS 14. The results They speak for themselves and little more needs to be said in the three different ways in which batteries have been compared.
The Samsung Galaxy S20 and S20 FE have better battery
There are two types of tests in which Samsung shows that its batteries are much superior to the iPhone 12 , iPhone 11 and also the Google Pixel 5, specifically in the tests of games and video playback on YouTube. These data should not take us too by surprise, since iPhones tend to perform very well in system-own apps, but nevertheless when we require them to use other services they tend to suffer excessively.
Battery test in games
The first data we look at is the gaming tests, where the Samsung Galaxy S20 FE has the best battery to enjoy long-hour games, with a duration of up to 8 hours and 29 minutes. The Snapdragon 865 processor does its job very well and shows us once again that it is unrivaled for now. Next is the S20 with 7 hours and 43 minutes, followed by the iPhone 11, which leaves the last iPhone 12 behind with only 3 hours of autonomy in games.
Battery test on YouTube
When it comes to consuming content on YouTube, the winner is again Samsung , this time with the Samsung Galaxy S20 and the Exynos processor. In this regard, the manufacturer has no rival under any circumstances, as it achieves more than 10 hours of autonomy, followed by the S20 FE and then pursued by the Google Pixel 5 that does a good job with one of its star apps.
The iPhone, however, does not exceed 7 hours and 13 minutes in the iPhone 11, something that leaves the newly presented iPhone 12 in a very bad place. Not to mention the terrible results of the rest of the iPhone, where the SE 2020 shows and makes clear the shortcomings.
Only the iPhone 12 stand out in the browser
As we mentioned at the beginning, iPhones can only perform at the expected level in their native apps and specifically adapted for iOS, such as the browser. Here, although the Google Pixel 5 passes over them, it stays very close and they get the autonomy of the iPhone 12 Pro to reach 12 hours and 35 minutes. This data, however, is very far from reality, since nobody uses only the browser.
Anyway, the Samsung Galaxy S20 and even better in the S20 FE get 12 hours and 28 minutes, which plant them face to face with Apple’s best asset in autonomy.
