Low power is more beneficial for when the phone is in your pocket, it stops background refresh for apps, downloads, email fetching, and dims the screen faster after receiving a notification or something that lights up the screen, so of course having the phone on most of the time doesn’t work at all. In other words, it’s background tasks that get benefits from low power mode.
Also on iPhones with LCD display is more beneficial, because if you watch HDR video or movie with low power mode off, the battery drains fast, on the iPhone XR - 11 - SE this process use cpu to simulate hdr. When you use low power mode on, the HDR is off and help the battery when you watch movies.
But most iPhones have pretty good stand by. As you saw earlier in the video, he put both on standby for 16 hours and they both lost a similar level of battery.
what about the ram? is low power mode more agressive emptying the ram that otherwise has to be refershed in order to mantain the data? if so doing the app cycle without closing the apps would result in low power mode using more battery by having to reload everything from storage every time?
I just tested it on my 12 pro on wifi, got 484mbps down and 23.3 up without low power mode and 452down and 23.2up with it on. On LTE I got 11.3down and 33up with low power mode on and 6.41down and 30.2up without it on. I don’t think that low power mode made it slower, especially with the LTE test where it was actually better. So I’d believe low power mode doesn’t affect Speedtest speeds. Just your connection may vary.
I think it’s much more affective with older phones where the processor might be working harder for more normal tasks so that CPU cap will make a big difference, on top of that the older CPU’s are less efficient and usually paired with smaller batteries
As someone who’s used an iPhone 5s and is currently using an iPhone XR, low power mode is HUGE for the older devices. Since their processors aren’t as powerful, my old iPhone 5s could get an extra 30-90 mins with low power mode enabled from 100%, where as there is no major difference from day to day simple tasks on the XR. However, intense gaming or video editing has helped me squeeze an hour or so more with the iPhone XR on low power mode
To people who are curious about the performance with and without low power mode: Geekbench 5 CPU without Low power mode: Single Core: 1332 Multi Core: 3282 Geekbench 5 CPU with Low power mode: Single Core: 786 Multi Core: 1487 3D Mark Slingshot Extreme without Low power mode: 5190 pts. 3D Mark Slingshot Extreme with Low power mode: 4298 pts.

Well, when in use, low power is useless and very agressive on performance hit. My iPhone 13 feels very sluggish when low power Mode is active. Thanks to this vídeo and this comment wont use it again.
Thank you. I would want expect with performance cut in half, battery life should double, if not more. Clearly not the case and not much point to using it.
I think you can conclude that low power mode makes the most difference when doing more intensive tasks, for day to day tasks that aren’t intensive to begin with it doesn’t make that much of a difference
The Low power mode restricts background processes and lowers the refresh rate when fast scrolling. In your case, there are very few fast scrolling session, and there are virtually no demanding background apps like messaging apps, multiple mail accounts and other realtime notification enabled apps, that's why the difference between two modes is negligible.
You should keep in mind that this is a very specific model of iPhone. Older devices, like the iPhone 7 may benefit from Low Power Mode more. I can say that on my 6s, I got quite a bit more screen on time with Low Power Mode, though I can't really give an exact number
One of the biggest impacts with low power mode is that the performance cores of the processor gets disabled. That's why it doesn't make any difference on apps like phone or messengers / iMessage. This just shows how extremely efficient and powerful the iPhones are already.
6:50 That’s… not how margin of error works… like at all. You don’t just add percentage points to the one you think should’ve won because “margin of error”.
Relax. He gave us the results with AND without the "margin of error" and ran multiple tests in multiple ways. You can completely ignore the whole margin of error thing and be your own judge with the results given. It's not a big deal at all.
When I use low battery mode;I do notice a big difference. It helps my battery last bit longer and also helps my battery charge faster. I have an SE 2020.
Low power mode decreases the CPU Frequency by approx. %50 regardless of what you do or use. I checked this via CPU Monitor app which doesn't work anymore. Therefore it helps to increase daily battery life anyway. If you consistenly use low power mode, your battery cycle will be less over time. This may help to slow down battery degradation compared to the usage scenario without LP mode. But we are talking about approx. %5-10 difference at overall . It is not that much. After 2-3 years of use, you will inevitably feel the battery degradation regardless of LP mode Usage. But in order to increase daily battery life to avoid charging frequently, i always use LP mode unless i feel poor performance.
I'm actually doing a test on my 12 Pro Max using low power mode. I haven't charged the phone since Sunday at 3pm and it Tuesday 7am and I have 34% left with 7hr 34 min screen on time between the nearly two days. I have to say the low power mode does its magic on turning the 5G off and using LTE only.
I would expect normal mode power draw to vary greatly by what background tasks/apps you often use. If you have many things chugging in the background or while in standby, the difference should grow
I feel like it's pointless to test whether low power mode is better while allowing it to dim the screen because you can just as easily dim the screen in normal power mode anyway.
So I’ve been wasting my time for the past 3 years putting on low power mode? Lmfao, time to get use to just not putting it on anymore at the start of the day.
This is funny cause i tested the new low power mode they released on the iPadOS 15 on my iPad while binge-watching the office and it really drained less battery. What i think it happens is that native iOS apps already are well optimized for low energy consumption, therefore native apps dont really benefit from the low poder mode, so it helps more on non-native apps.
Hey, could you try this again but instead use a heavier used/daily used iPhone with more apps. What I mean is that these stock iPhones do not have much background refresh as I think low power mode helps with that more. Thanks!
Low power mode is a huge difference within the newer Samsung devices such as my s20 ultra that I have set to 120hz normally, while low power mode drops it back to 60hz, same with the screen resolution where normal power mode would be WQHD+ while low power automatically sets it to FHD+. In my opinion, Low power mode has such a big difference when it come's to Samsung devices, plus it's still as amazing, and even if not better screen quality, but more importantly BETTER BATTERY(even better than better with battery saver activated).
Actually I'm a huge Apple Supporter and enjoy the whole eco system... But the low power mode sucks. I always keep it turned off, since it never made any difference for me (sometimes it even seemed to make it worse...) Btw. Awesome videos. I watched some in a row now and love the whole concept. Really dope. Subbed!
Without starting to watch this. I have tested some sort of this with my own device too and since then I haven't ever activated it except If my battery fell below 10%
There's no need to use power saving unless you really REALLY can't get to a charger in your car, a power bank or to a wall plug. The phone is bought to be used to its maximum, why limit anything if not absolutely needing to do so?
I feel like analytical tests like this don't do the process the justice it needs, because real world testing of walking around, searching for cell towers, consistently sending/receiving notifications, and other normal app usage and not mechanically doing block tests
@@fanban2926 also underclocked processor, Apps running in the background not needing to do so being stoped, and so on. My poco f2 pro which just has 60hz also lasts a Day longer when in power saving Mode. Feeling just as fast as ever (when not ingame)
I think you should do a test with low power mode and normal power mode on a degraded battery iPhone I think the difference would be much greater because most people who have their iPhone constantly on low power mode have also degraded batteries. Also do it on the iPhone 13 pro since low power mode on iPhone 13 Pro disables ProMotion
I have an automation that turns low power mode on whenever I leave my house and then turns it off when I return. Then I also have a shortcut in a widget that I can easily just toggle to turn it on or off when I need to with just one tap.
I turned the ultra power saving mode on my S10 and it clearly saves a loooooot of battery. My phone basically gets an aditional 3-5 hours easily and on standby even more.
I let my iPhone X charge overnight , and in the morning I turn on Low battery mode . I get 7 hours and 15 minutes of display on . Without it I get 6 hours of screen time . It definitely works for me .
Low power mode saves significint amount of battery juice when turned on on older iPhones like the 6S through underclocking the processor (but it causses it to be really laggy).
Low power mode isn’t intended for active usage. It’s battery preserving methods are for inactive usage, when it’s in your pocket, unessential processes don’t run. The screen is dimmer so it doesn’t use too much battery when notifications come through and your screen lights up.
I don't know why, but the thought of a robot playing games, and scrolling through instagram, and texting for hours is just hilarious, and as a person who uses low power mode all the time, I was kind of disappointed, but then again, I use an older phone, so maybe it's more effective
For me on my 14 pro, I’ve noticed that the underclocking the processor is quite annoying. It runs so much more sluggishly (not just the refresh rate). I’m okay with using it for if I’m not actively using my phone and if I want to temporarily disable AOD or something
Well on my old iPhone SE 1st gen even opening a website without low power mode dropped my battery percentage by 3%. With low power mode i could at least spend some time like half a minute on there before losing battery. It definitely helped me out
The biggest difference here is that in background tasks, the LPM limits what goes on. The IP13PM has variable refresh rate so you only are refreshing at the 120hz if you are scrolling, when you are watching a video or a still image. The screen will refresh at whatever fps the screen needs to at minimum. So a 24fps video will get 24fps or 60fps gets 60fps. Further, if you are gaming at a locked 60fps instead of 120fps. The LPM limits the processor power use by 70% and its still faster than a 12 Pro Max. So if you are gaming you will get way better battery life. The native scheduler is just that efficient as is, thats why no big difference
Wow, this is a professionally performed experiment! Instant subscribe (3 years later…) Btw. this particular device probably didn't have too many apps installed so there was no difference with the disabled 'Background app refresh', plus fewer apps want to download less data in the background, and iCloud Photos doesn't have much to do with a new device either. The test would be more life-like with a much more organic device.
@@ogxt3rr067 Sd888 is going to win both tests , but the thing we want to see is the margin between them . Exynos 2100 has improved alot compared to its predecessor but it is not the same for sd888 , also it heats up alot (thanks to samsung's manufacturing).
I've used ultra power saving mode, saved me a few times when I was going out to places like a forest trying to take some pictures and hiking on a mountain not realizing I didn't charge my phone.
I have run experiments myself and low power mode drains battery faster. And my guess is that it drains faster because it forces the iPhone to work harder.

Oneplus 9 Pro vs 12 Pro Max Speed test !!
Waiting 🔥
The biggest difference here is that in background tasks, the LPM limits what goes on. The IP13PM has variable refresh rate so you only are refreshing at the 120hz if you are scrolling, when you are watching a video or a still image. The screen will refresh at whatever fps the screen needs to at minimum. So a 24fps video will get 24fps or 60fps gets 60fps.
Further, if you are gaming at a locked 60fps instead of 120fps. The LPM limits the processor power use by 70% and its still faster than a 12 Pro Max. So if you are gaming you will get way better battery life.
The native scheduler is just that efficient as is, thats why no big difference
Try aeroplane mode , dark mode and battery saver all on at same time🤔 that's what I use but on my 1+👌
Much needed video
That’s weird… battery life literally doubles for me on low power mode. I think it probably depends on what phone you have.
What phone you got?
@@ararix3722 at the time of commenting I had an iPhone SE

@@whwhwhhwhhhwhdldkjdsnsjsks6544 have you tried it with your current phone? I have a pixel 4a 5g and battery saver works wonders
Wow, this is a professionally performed experiment! Instant subscribe (3 years later…) Btw. this particular device probably didn't have too many apps installed so there was no difference with the disabled 'Background app refresh', plus fewer apps want to download less data in the background, and iCloud Photos doesn't have much to do with a new device either.
The test would be more life-like with a much more organic device.
Exynos 2100 vs snapdragon 888.🙋🏻
He's already done this test
@@ibraheem1224 He did it (battery drain test only) with different devices .
@@sakeenazaidi2187 ooh ok. Sorry my bad. Yes that test is definitely needed then
SD888 WINS
@@ogxt3rr067 Sd888 is going to win both tests , but the thing we want to see is the margin between them . Exynos 2100 has improved alot compared to its predecessor but it is not the same for sd888 , also it heats up alot (thanks to samsung's manufacturing).
I was here for the Premiere!
Same
Sup buddy. Saw you there too haha
Same, I arrived here about 1 minute after the premiere started.
why is the time different in two iphones
i only use low power mode when i know i wont be using phone for a while(1-2hours) or during night time/sleep or when battery is 20% or lower
You should use it all the time as it will make your charge go further
Thankfully, Phonebuff!
Apple should come up with “ultra power saving mode” like Samsung. It’s really good for stand by battery life.
They wont do that. Apple reasons.
I've used ultra power saving mode, saved me a few times when I was going out to places like a forest trying to take some pictures and hiking on a mountain not realizing I didn't charge my phone.
Wouldn’t really need to as their processors are already efficient as is.
I have run experiments myself and low power mode drains battery faster. And my guess is that it drains faster because it forces the iPhone to work harder.
please do those tests on cell signal with wifi off! that would be a good real world test
It would’ve been nice if done to new pro iPhones since they turn off pro motion and they have 5g so we can see if they power down the modem there
Snapdragon 888 vs exynos 2100 speed test and battery test .
Legendary voice 💯
Is no one going to talk about how scientific these tests were?
this should be the standard for all tests like this, so it really shouldn't be anything special
Yea, not scientific at all tbh
