    iPhone battery endurance was poor until last year when they finally upgraded their batteries to reasonable levels. That upgrade will not be enough once they use 120Hz displays on next year models with the same battery capacities. They would need to upgrade the batteries as well. These are all facts, not opinions.

    iPhone XS Max = 79h (poor)
    iPhone XS = 72h (v.poor)
    iPhone XR = 78h (poor)
    iPhone X = 74h (v.poor)

          They flipped the board to the right & released it as a new phone by changing the name?

            Downgrading the battery is absurd. Just make the phone a bit thicker. Most users would prefer that over poor battery endurance.

            Next year they're supposed to use 120Hz displays on their phones. They better upgrade to 4500+ mAh or it's going to be a very disappointing experience for heavy users.

              Arod, 12 Nov 2020odd shape but hey it has a big battery tho :)Never call it big when there are 5000, 6000 and even 7000 mah batteries from android brands, not even counting the niche ones with 10000mah and above batteries
