Hell, my Pixel even trickle charges until my earliest alarm to preserve battery life... This is just sad lmao

trickle

iOS and iPhones have a giant amount of features to preserve battery life and health, it's actually really good. Also they're consistently more serviceable than a pixel.

You mean like just deleting every app that runs in the background for ten minutes? Not really much better than Samsung.

No there’s a whole suite of ways that the phone knows it’s being used or not. It limits charging capacity for longevity etc, and it’s fairly advanced. It’s the reason iOS devices consistently compete for usable battery life hours with android devices that have much bigger physical battery cells.

Oh, well if the industry magazines' benchmarks say so then I won't bother you with my own experiences with switching... Clearly I was spreading disinformation. Nevermind! 😅

Personally I found Apple does what Samsung does slightly better, but there is no comparison with the battery conservation of customized operating systems on droids. Samsung and Apple both suck.

I’m not gonna tell you that either corporate OS is great but they’re certainly both aware of the concept of battery optimization.
