Ipad gen 10 battery lives less than 6 hours

Few days ago i bought an Ipad 10 and had issue. My device works less than 6 hours after full charge. I tested it on 4K videos on Youtube with 100% brightless turned on. Is it ok to have such a little work time for Ipad?

iPad, iPadOS 16

Can’t use any iPad at 100% brightness.

100% bright screen WILL use up battey life very quickly.

Try keeping the iPad’s screen at 80% or even lower that is still readable.

If you want to watch YouTube videos at 4K with full screen brightness, I suggest you plug your iPad into a main power source to do so.

Hello gomzya,


We see you are asking about your iPad battery life. First, there are useful tips to get the most out of your battery life here: Batteries - Maximizing Performance - Apple


Watching 4K videos and with the brightness set to maximize will use the battery life faster. You will also want to make sure your iPadOS is fully updated to version 16.6.1.


Work through those steps, then reply back if you still have concerns.


Best regards.
