Battery usage and frequency have practically no correlation. I've got HF gear (things running at just a few MHz) that use car batteries to run a few hours. I've got 2.4GHz stuff designed to run off practically a watch battery and for their use case last weeks.
And either way phones running on 4G LTE or 5G are largely using the same frequencies as before. Few phones actually connect to those ultra wideband networks for any notable percentage of the time. Most of the time they're connecting to 4G/5G towers operating around the same older GSM bands. Those earlier StarTAC phones and the Nokia 5110 ran at ~800-1900MHz. A modern 5G phone on T-Mobile US (Band n71) will operate on 600MHz. On your logic, a modern 5G phone on T-Mobile should work much longer than many older phones.
