While Apple may be a little late to the 5G game, the tech giant has streamlined all the new iPhones to use the 5th generation of cellular technology. Though there is no denying the fact that 5G is significantly faster (could theoretically achieve the speed of 20GB per second), this rapid speed comes at the cost of around 20% faster battery drain. If you find the battery drain way more than you can afford, here is how you can save battery life when using 5G on iPhone 12, 12 mini, 12 Pro, or 12 Pro Max.
To help you have better control over 5G on your iPhone 12 Series, Apple offers multiple options that you can use to strike a fine balance between network speed and battery life. For instance, you can choose to enable 5G only when it’s essential for HD video-streaming, high-octane games, or high-quality FaceTime video calling.
