iPhone 15 battery not lasting long

Paul432 — Tue, 05 Nov 2024 12:04:48 GMT

My iPhone 15 is terrible in how fast the battery discharges. I’ve turned everything possible off and use battery save. I rarely use Bluetooth and keep my brightness down as low as I can and yet it only last for one day. I very rarely make or receive calls.

im really disappointed with the battery life. You would think after all these years Apple would use a decent battery

Settings/Battery, see what's using it. Proceed accordingly.

On average, we'd expect only about a day from our 13's, but much will vary between users.

How long have you had it? What's the battery health?

Hi
I’ve had about six weeks and it says the battery heath is normal. I’ve
turned everything off except WiFi so no blue tooth, location, background
app reresh. Siri is totally disabled. I very rarely make calls on ii.
I know it’s a modern type phone that can be power hungry but surely tbe
battery design should improve with phone design.
I have been know to have to charge it twice in a day if using WhatsApp.

Hi @Paul432

It's worth having a look through Apple's support help page If the battery in your iPhone drains too quickly for common steps that fix battery drain problems.

The first steps I'd recommend it to ensure your phone is up to date with the latest firmware.

Hope this helps! Let us know how you get on.

Shockingly poor - I replaced an iPhone 11 with a 15 because of v poor battery deg. The 15 was alright initially but now as bad as the 11. Hopeless. Can rely on it for Maps with no other apps and Bluetooth off lasts 1/2 a day m. Want my money back and Apple can manage without my money. Don’t believe the battery health in Settings - for a new phone this is a joke

Good morning @IonInvader.

Welcome to the Community 😊

How long is it you've had this phone for now, and what is the battery health showing as?

Whilst batteries will degrade over time, this can depend on usage, and what you've described here doesn't sound typical.
Have you had a chance to check the help page @Ali_A shared above, too?

Peter
