I've been running my M1-based MBP since April I've been able to use it for well over a full work day (on the order of 12+ hours) before dropping to 30% battery (from a full charge) And that includes 8+ hours of using VDI, streaming video from YouTube, random other web browsing, etc My iPhone 11 (if I'm not running some poorly-optimized games) will run for over 14 hours between charges of "constant" use (streaming audio (podcasts and Pandora), YouTube, email, facebook, etc) I'd find it exceptionally hard to believe that the two-generations-newer, more-efficient (and powerful) A15 + larger battery is not going to be more performant and long-lasting between charges

  Nope - the 12 lasted better than the 11

    It was >~300mAh smaller and unsurprisingly did not last as long -at least initially- Likely due to the 12’s 5G modem, so it may have changed with their LTE fallback optimization.
