Ondrej Holzman Apple tames the passions. The California-based company has responded to reports that have spread in recent days that some new iPhones 6S and 6S Plus will have significantly less battery life due to having an A9 processor from either Samsung or TSMC. According to Apple, the battery life of all phones varies only minimally during real use.
The information that Apple outsources the production of the latest A9 processor to two companies - Samsung and TSMC - is discovered at the end of September. This week then discovered by several tests, in which identical iPhones with different processors (Samsung's A9 is 10 percent smaller than TSMC's) were directly compared.
Some tests have concluded that the difference in battery life can be up to almost an hour. However, Apple has now responded: according to its own testing and data collected from users, the actual battery life of all devices varies by only two to three percent.
"Every chip we sell meets Apple's highest standards for delivering incredible performance and great battery life, regardless of iPhone 6S capacity, color or model," he said applepro TechCrunch.
Apple claims that most of the tests that appeared were using the CPU completely unrealistically. At the same time, the user does not carry such a load during normal operation. "Our testing and user data show that the actual battery life of the iPhone 6S and iPhone 6S Plus, even accounting for differences in components, varies by 2 to 3 percent," Apple added.
Indeed, many tests used tools such as GeekBench, which exploited the CPU in a way that the average user has practically no chance of doing during the day. "The two to three percent difference that Apple sees in the battery life of the two processors is completely within the manufacturing tolerance for any device, even two iPhones with the same processor," explains Matthew Panzarino, who says that such a small difference is impossible to detect in real-world use .
Applack classic. It's not a bug, it's an added feature. And if it behaves stupidly, then it's my fault and I mishandle the device and put an unrealistic burden on it. If I remember correctly, in that test they recorded 10 minutes of 4K video and then exported it somewhere. And even with this activity, there was quite a big difference in the remaining battery. That doesn't seem like an unrealistic thing to me. If the phone allows recording 4K video, then probably enough users will record it, right? And he will probably export it somewhere. What about him in a cell phone with a resolution of zero zero nothing. But it is a fact that the majority of smartphone users are single-minded imbeciles who only send statuses on Facebook. There it can be 2 to 3 percent.
You see, and perhaps here at Apple I don't see the matter so black (i.e. generally admitting errors). As one of the few, it not only admits errors, even partially, and responds to public feedback, but mainly resolves the whole matter, including, for example, mass replacement of devices , which are several years old.
I remember the time when I had the first generation Galaxy S and the majority of these devices had the defect that they could not be updated, Wi-Fi did not work, etc., Samsung then did not respond to calls, did nothing and left the whole thing alone.
they just don't want to admit their mistake, I remember as if it was today when Apple claimed that the iPhone 5S lasts as well as the 5 when calling and using it, although I had 5 hour worse battery life on the 1S than on the 4S, I got to the 5S max for 8 hours, normally the ceiling was 7-7,5 hours of use, while for 6 I have 10-10,5 hours,
S-ka are just bad when it comes to the battery, despite a lot of news
