    I'd like to know who these people are. Do they have the max/plus size
    phone, do they not really use them or they sit on wifi all the time?

    Only the current iPhone 15's meet the EU minimum lifetime for batteries. Every iPhone before the iPhone 15 miserably fails EU lifetime minimums.

    You'd be hard pressed to find an Android that isn't *double* the lifetime.
    It probably goes without saying, but with the iPhone, you aren’t just
    getting one of the phones with the best battery life, but one of the
    best smartphones overall. The unmatched performance and software support coupled with the excellent cameras make an iPhone an easy recommendation
    for anyone looking for more than just all-day endurance.
