It is worth mentioning that these battery performance tests do not come close to what a person could do on a daily basis. Nor are they simple tests in which certain video playbacks are performed. Geekerwan relied on the use of several apps to send messages, call, browse the internet, use a social network China like Douyin (which is a Chinese TikTok) and play Genshin Impact.

He kept performing the repeated activities until the battery ran out. It was immediately concluded that iOS 18 contributed to improving the autonomy on older devices. In the case of the iPhone 15 Pro Max, in iOS 17 it had a time of 7 hours and 56 minutes and with iOS 18 it went up to 9 hours and 2 minutes of use. In the case of the iPhone 15 Pro it improved from 6 hours and 22 minutes to 6 hours and 55 minutes.

iOS 18 makes better use of iPhone chips

It seems strange but iOS 18 makes an improvement to the iPhones in terms of their chips. Geekerwan indicates that iOS 18’s “Task Scheduler” makes better management of performance and efficiency cores of the A17 Pro. Instead of using more energy, it saves in brief moments of use but with greater frequencies. This could be exemplified when we enter a social network such as Instagram or TikTok, we make “intensive” use of the screen when viewing different content but it could be for a very short time.
