2812mAh?
It's a no for me.
Makes sense why its life gets 20% shorter while using 5G. It's already shorter then before.
I'll stick with my XR (so far it won't get outdated)

So let me get this straight, they made batter smaller, gave it 5G which will drain battery and then said no to 120Hz cuz of battery life?
What the hell Apple? You are better then this, you have resources to make a phone comparable to best Androids yet you made not so great phones knowing your customers will buy them either for status simbol or because you lock them in your ecosystem, such a shame, especially after last year.

Finally decent modem, those from Intel were very bad.
Much slower speeds.

Welcome to 2020 5G. For the price, I'd hope that they secured atleast the X60 but hey, the X55 is cheaper now especially this 4th quarter and the year's about to end.

Hahhaha now we know the real Culprit behind weak battery on 5g.
Qualcomm should learn from Mediatek on how to bake in 5g modem.
Mediatek have done a solid job with the 5g modem baked in with the Dimensity series where it doesn't eat up much battery along with keeping the cpu ottling to zero. cpu

I live in Europe, so my phone will be constantly just on 4G for couple more years. Therefore, I would welcome a version without 5G and with a larger battery.
