If you are concerned about battery life, get a battery case. It stores enough power to recharge your iphone twice over. Much cheaper and much, much more convenient than getting a burner phone.

    gosh if someone really wants to play Pokemon Go religiously i'd say get a burner phone for it. poco X3 with a 6000mah battery along with a powerbank. id limit the performance of this game just due to its ability to murder a battery life(on any device)

          Nice but it'll be possible to enjoy only if you carry 20000 mAh battery pack with you when playing :(

            Anonymous, 03 Dec 2021Lol only 5 years laterWell, iPhones didn't have 120Hz until recently. Android, of course, has had it for a while and Pokemon Go runs fluidly on Android already.

                  For completeness; on Android, Pokémon Go has been capped at half the screen refresh rate since launch. 30fps on 60hz screens, 45 on 90hz, 60fps on 120Hz and so on. The update that removed the cap (0.225.0) dropped on Monday.
