This is a huge qualitative difference beyond just the numbers.
With a battery life that is longer than 24 hours, I can just have a single charger at home, and go through the entire day without worrying about charging.
It basically removes battery level from the things you have to be thinking about as you go about your day.
- SketchySeaBeast 5y agoI would hope that your new phone lasts more than 24 hours regardless. I also may not be terribly with it, but I'd also hope that no one is trying to stream video 12+ hours a day.
- nomel 5y agoI was surprised to see some of my younger relatives using Youtube as their free music streaming service. You can find almost any song, with static images in the video. They listen with their phone in their pocket, while streaming regular YouTube. One of them had an android phone that let you disable the touchscreen with a switch, along with some way to turn off the screen. I have to admit I do the same sometimes with podcasts on YouTube.
- zerocrates 5y agoI seem to remember that Youtube also has "keep playing audio when you turn the screen off" as a premium feature for their subscription?
- masonjson 5y agoYeah, or just download YouTube Vanced and have this feature + downloading
- noptd 5y agoThey sure do. For anyone interested, NewPipe and Youtube Vanced are solid alternatives that allow you turn the screen off during playback without a monthly charge.
- pineconewarrior 5y agoYouTube Vanced is the one app I miss from android. Now I’m reluctantly paying Google for Pro. It’s worth it to avoid the ads on my Roku etc, but I just hate giving them money :(
- WrtCdEvrydy 5y agoYoutubeVanced allowed this. You could disable the video stream and just stream the music.
- systemBuilder 5y agoMy three-year-old Android OnePlus 6t lasts 36 hours on a charge even after 3 years of daily use. I have to laugh at these Apple fanboys who don't understand how far behind apple is in many ways...
