Verbatim because apologists deny whatever they _hate_ about Apple
(as it turns out, apologists happen to hate a _lot_ of facts about Apple).

"Apple has included a Smart Data Mode feature that
automatically switches from 5G to 4G in order to save battery,
*but you might just want to turn 5G off*"

o iPhone 12 dies two hours faster when connected to a 5G network

"With AT&T's 5G network, the iPhone 12 lasted 8 hours & 25 minutes"
"The iPhone 12 Pro [lasted] with a battery life of 9 hours & 6 minutes"

"even with a higher refresh rate (which consumes power that much more
quickly), three out of the four Android phones outlasted the iPhone 12,
while two topped the iPhone 12 Pro. With the standard 60Hz refresh rate,
*all four Android phones beat the iPhone 12 and 12 Pro*"

Apple apologists are only capable of parroting what MARKETING feeds them.
