hey guys this is Austin reports have come out that some versions of the iPhone 6s have up to 20% less battery life but is there actually any difference it all comes down to the chips inside unlike previous iPhones the 6s can have two different processors chip works took a closer look and found something interesting there physically different sizes if you open up an iPhone 6s you would find one of two chips one built by samsung the measures end at ninety six millimeters squared and another built by GSM see that comes in at one hundred and four point five millimeters squared the difference comes because they're built on two different processes the Samsung is 40 nanometers where the tsmc chip is 60 nanometers all this nerd talk aside what this means is that not all iPhone successes are created equal to find out which phone you have go to the App Store and download the Lyra info app it's free and is usually used for monitoring but what we want to find out is the model number the iPhone 6s with a samsung a nine is n seven one ap where the TSMC version is n 7 one ma P the same holds true for the iPhone 6s plus the Samsung model number is n 6 6 ap and tsmc is n 6 6 M ap supposedly the tsmc model is the better version but I want to put that to the test to find out I took a pair of identical iPhone successes one with the Samsung processor and one with the tsmc chip I calibrated both screens to 200 nits of brightness and ran the Geekbench 3 battery test until each phone hit 50% battery the results were really surprising this TSMC phone lasted a full 50 minutes longer than the Samsung model resulting in nearly 1.5 times difference in battery life this was also noticeable in the temperatures of the phones the TSMC iPhone runs significantly cooler than the Samsung phone under load since Geekbench is the absolute worst case of how battery holds up under intense load next I ran a much lighter video test I loaded the same hour-long YouTube video with both phones connected to the same Wi-Fi network and here there was a much smaller difference with the samsung phone using 15% battery compared to 14 percent with the TSMC model the end result is very interesting for normal use there's a fairly minor difference but the TSMC iphone can give you significantly better battery life for heavy use there's really no way of telling which phone you're going to get before buying the lehre map is great but it only tells you after you've bought the phone my friend Jon from TLD also tested to see the difference in real-world battery life and performance which you should definitely go check out so what do you guys think about chip gate a big deal or no problem at all let me know in the comments below if you enjoyed this video and want to see more deadly be sure to subscribe to the channel
