Yeah, I've spent many hours reading articles about iPhone battery life. And, I’ve done everything conceivable to solve the problem including routinely putting it in Low Power Mode. But, what fun is a phone if you have to turn off major features in order to get half a day out of the battery? And, I’m not a heavy user. Most of my stuff is done on my iPad: email, messages, reading (books, magazines and newspapers), photo editing, web surfing, etc.
My wife has an 18 month old iPhone X. She’s an attorney who makes incredibly heavy use of her phone: telephone calls, messages, Line, email, FB, Twitter, document scans and so on. She never uses Low Power Mode and never charges her phone during the day. She charges overnight and is good to go for the entire next day.
What keeps me skeptical about it being the battery is that the first (original) battery lasted less than two years. The second lasted less than a year. Is it really possible that Apple gave me two defective batteries in a row?
