New iPhone 16 Pro Reports Highlight Latest Battery Problems

Apple is facing frustration from new iPhone 16 and iPhone 16 Pro owners as
their battery life is significantly less than the Apple community has
expected following the launch and initial reviews.
The issue is showing itself when the smartphone goes into standby mode.
Rather than reducing battery usage to a minimum, iPhones are drawing more
power and impacting standby time. It is particularly noticeable for those
who do not leave their phone on charge overnight.
Like other smartphones, the iPhone assumes it will always be on and has an
internet connection supporting background services such as "Find My
iPhone." At the same time, there are some strategies to extend battery
life. Not all will apply; turning down the screen brightness isn't going to
help, but restricting background services and using low-power mode reduces
the demands any app can make. It's a stopgap measure, though, not a cure.
The culprit looks to be the latest version of iOS.
