Smartphones have become faster and smarter thanks to 7nm FinFET SoCs that come with their dedicated NPUs, but one problem is still looming on the horizon. Although companies have made breakthroughs in other areas, the smartphone batteries remain largely the same and effects of that are starting to show now.

According to tests carried out by various media outlets, iPhone’s battery life is getting worse on a yearly basis. That’s not to say that the Android phones are faring any better. According to reports, most phones released this year offer less juice per charge than their predecessors. For instance, Google Pixel 3 dies one and a half hour earlier than the Pixel 2, and the iPhone XS lasts 21 minutes less than the iPhone X. The only exception is the iPhone XR, which offers a longer battery life since it pushes fewer pixels than the other devices being compared. While the iPhone XS and iPhone XS Max tout OLED panels, their increased pixels does contribute to faster battery drainage.
