Cellular Data and WiFi

Simple question.

When I keep turn ON cellular data but I still using WiFi for daily, does it drain more battery (because I still keep turning ON the cellular data)?

iPhone 14 Pro, iOS 16

Mobile data Vs Wi-Fi Battery Comsumption Am I the only one that has huge difference between Data and Wifi regarding battery loss? I have 15 pro, when I'm outside I notice the battery dies way quicker than when having a place with Wi-Fi. I tried using 4G and helped however not that much. My phone lasts 5 (6 if your lucky) hours on data and on Wi-Fi around 8 hours approx, give or take. Anyone having this issue on an iPhone, more of 15 pro? Yes, my settings are very optimized well so don't tell me to turn off this and that.

Battery Consumption with WiFi, Bluetooth & Cellular Data Turned On Together Is there a significant battery consumption in iOS devices when WiFi, Bluetooth & Cellular Data are all turned on together? When I’m at home, I switch off my cellular data & turn on WiFi. While I’m going out, I switch on my Cellular Data & turn off WiFi. I have no use case for Bluetooth so it’s always off. Will turning it on help FindMy service for better location sharing? Or it’s not needed & will simply consume battery? Thanks!

Does using iphone hotspot for 3-4 hours daily will affect my battery lifespan? Hello, I have just bought iphone 15, i was android user prior to this. I working from home these days, so used my android hotspot for working. My question is will there be any risk of reduction in battery lifespan(health) if i use the personal hotspot for internet connection for 3-4 hours daily of weekdays. Is there any other way by which i can use the iPhone internet without effecting the iPhone battery lifespan. Thanks in advance. Baljeet

not because of data, but sure enabling bluetooth, wifi and cellular connectivity in general use more power than if they are not enabled
