Hey guys Danny Boy here and today, I got the Google Pixel three AXL and the iPhone 10s Max, and what I want to talk about in this video are the batteries and these phones, my experience and using them in its regards' battery life and how we charge these phones. Where do they stand and Matt err? Yeah? Okay, so we know the iPhone 10s max costs about double. With this phone calls. Are we getting double the experience or quality with this phone? Well, let's discuss that so battery wise, the Google Pixel three AXL has a 3700 William hour battery in it now for 479 bucks. That's pretty good I mean we're edging toward four thousand there and the Android world. That's you know I would say upper middle tier battery quality there, it's not low, it's not metal.
It's on the upper side of the middle there, the iPhone 10s max we're talking 31 74 ml amp hour battery now at first glance. That might seem a little distressing. Considering this phone costs double what this one costs, but you have to understand we're talking Android operating system versus Apple's operating system, and they use power differently. They have different setups when it comes to power, consumption, okay, so really that William hour rating doesn't mean a lot when comparing an Android device with the iOS device because of how they drink that juice. Okay.
So that being the case, let's talk about my own personal experience. Now, as a disclaimer here, I will say: I have used the always on display on the Pixel 3a XL. Here 24/7, you know for this device, I leave it on I like to be always on display, but that does drain extra battery life. Okay, that's just the way it works, so experience wise, I, daily, drove the Pixel 3a XL here for three weeks. It's my daily driver, so I got a pretty good feel here of what we're dealing with usage wise battery life flies.
Now, let's go ahead and jump into the phone, and I'll show you the battery section. So we can kind of get an idea here of what they offer: software wise. Okay. So one cool thing I, like about Google's Android presentation here- is that they allow you to choose when the battery saver mode will turn on, so I have mine set when the phone gets to 30% it'll go ahead and kick on now. You could move that wherever you want, you could turn it on, so that it's on all the time.
So that's pretty cool I like that, so you're able obviously to show your battery percentage up in the corner there, and they just give you some stats. I mean it's pretty basic here, not a lot going on right. Let's look at the iPhones presentation in that area. Hang on okay, so this is what we got going on here with the iPhone. You know, I'm, not sure when that lower power mode will automatically kick on, because I usually never get to that point, but obviously you can toggle it on an Apple.
Has this thing where it monitors the battery's health? Now this phone is almost a year old, and we can see that at the battery's health is at 97% and that's been my experience with Apple devices. These phones are super awesome with everything it seems, but the battery seems to be the part of the phone that kind of goes first before anything else, I mean in my experience. You can get about three years of good battery usage out of an iPhone before, and you know it needs to be replaced which isn't bad, but just something to bear in mind. I really can't compare that with Android phones, because there are different manufacturers and usually I, never keep an Android phone that long, but there you see that, and they do give you some charts here and app usage and what's going on here. So that's pretty good guys.
Now there is no always-on display here you got the lift wake which will show you some things, but no always-on display with iOS at least right now with iOS 12, okay. So my experience with these phones, so the Google Pixel 3ax, so here I, was not impressed with the battery life on this phone being about 12 to 13 hours off charged with medium usage. I would generally have about 50% battery left at the end of the day. Okay, now I never tried. Turning off the always-on display, so I really can't speak as to where my battery would be if I turn that feature off not granted 50% still ain't bad.
If I use the phone heavily I might be at 20-25 percent. So that's still good. It's just in my opinion. It's not quite that edge, obviously of a flagship phone and I mean this is 479. Bucks versus this was originally 1099.
So we really can't expect this to be a flagship level. Quality battery wise, but I will say that it is definitely good, and it's good enough battery wise. It definitely never burnt me. I never got in a bind because the battery wasn't good enough. Okay, so over here we've got flagship level quality battery performance at the end of most days, same situation, 12 13 hours off to charge medium usage I would generally be about 65 to 70% battery less and that's really, really good.
The only other phone I've ever had that compared to this was my one plus 6. It was very good also, but all other phones have not matched those two phones and battery quality. Okay, it's just the way. It is now very in it if you had an always-on display here. You know it might not get 10 or fifteen percent I.
Don't know, that's just a random guess, but uh really happy with the battery performance on the iPhone. Apple has spent a lot of time and effort mastering how iOS uses the battery, and it's a very efficient and just a perfect experience here. I mean don't let that thirty-one seventy-four fool you on the William hours, because really it performs better than then it looks on paper, okay, so, and this one, if you really want to master the battery on this, one I would suggest turning off the always-on display. But again, that's not a lot of fun to do that, but that would definitely I'm sure make closer to a flagship level. If you did that one more thing guys I forgot I need to talk about the charging of these phones.
Okay, so here there's a pretty substantial difference: I mean here again we're talking flagship versus mid-range device and with the pixel three AXL here you just don't have wireless charging, that's not part of the package. Here we have a plastic back on this phone, so you do have corded charging, it is USB type-c, and it does come with an 18 watt charging brick. So it is pretty fast on charging up the device. That's pretty good! It's not! No one plus 30 watt work charging, but it's definitely not slow. You know not a good charger, so it is what it is.
I would say: it's definitely upper mid-on that. So not bad here now, here with the iPhone, we do have a glass back and, of course, this being flagship Apple we do have wireless charging, and it works perfect. Even with cases on I have a cradle that I just set it in. Let it charge during the nighttime, and it's not the fastest charging in the world by any means, but it gets the job done now. Courted charging on this phone I believe it's pretty slow kind of like the wireless church, and you can get like iPad or MacBook charger and hooked it up through a lightning cable and get fast wired charging.
But you know you're talking I, don't know, probably 70 or 80 bucks for that set up now you can't get lower-cost ones on Amazon, maybe and the $30 range there, and that might be the better way to go on that. But you know obviously having a wireless charging is an advantage here, but both are good in the chart. You know the charging area. I would say that this definitely has the advantage here. But corded is fast here.
So it depends on how you looked at it so guys, as always, if you're enjoying my videos be sure to subscribe to the channel and hit that thumbs up button, but for now guys peace out.
