There’s at least three problems that they know about if you bring the phone to Apple they’re gonna act like they don’t know anything one of the text came up to me and said it’s going to need another update or two… also some of the phones after three days the battery gets used to the charging and it stops getting warm while charging which mine has done but at eight 8 o’clock in the morning my phone is at 100% for my iPhone 15 Pro Max and by 12 in the afternoon I’m down to 69% and by 5 o’clock I’m at 40 my 14 Pro Max hundred percent at 8 AM all day long at 9 PM it would be on 50%… I can almost guarantee that when they start making the phones for the next batch, some of the problems gets fixed, this is what happens when we all buy the first ones. I should’ve waited till the end of November.
As I stated, any 5G phone will use more power than phones using LTE, and it’s even worse in a low signal area (one or two bars.)
That’s not an Apple thing, it’s a cellular radio thing.
For example:
Samsung phone battery drains quickly on 5G service
I do have same issue having latest iOS....
Following up on my own post, I have talked to apple support on the phone 4 different times after taking my phone to an apple store prior to that. I had talked to 2 really nice women and finally, a really kind apple support agent said she would like to send me a replacement phone. My phone is up to date on the latest iOS. The battery continues to die extremely fast, I can get a full days use out of it only if screen time is about 4 hours.. the apple agent told me on a brand new pro max the battery should be lasting way longer than that DESPITE the logistics on the battery saying that the battery is totally perfect (background app refresh is off, and always on screen is off). She told me her husband has the exact same phone as me (256 GB storage and Natural Titanium color) and his lasts all day talking on the phone and screen time way higher. Not sure what happened in production.. why some phones are working and others are not doing well. The phone will get to me in a couple weeks and I will update again.
My battery is draining very quick
I have the same problem. The battery is not lasting 8h. My last iPhone was 13 pro max and the battery would last the whole day.
It’s really frustrating that Apple is going downhill. Customer service just pretend that nothing is happening, but they know is a problem.
yes agree with you .. Poor battery Performance iphone 15 pro Max .. But Who care .. We waste of Our Money 😢😢😭😭 I choose 15 pro max For battery life but Here is iam totally broke 😢
Yah same i have iphone 11 old one which is 86 % battery health in 2.5 years .. quit Good backup then 15 pro max … 🥲🥲🥲
No one is gonna be helped with 400 "me too" replies. There's a "Me too" button you can click to tell Apple you're experiencing the same problem. Unless you have anything substantial or of value to add to the discussion, stop piling "me too" replies please.
Is this an issue with the 15 pro max generally or is it just with some phones? Some YouTubers are reporting 9+ hrs screen on time.
Ofcourse it's just with some phones. If all phones were bad it would be all over the news. Also, if you read this thread, you'll see people (like me) have had their phones replaced and all is fine and dandy since. So, yes, it probably is just a bad batch.
Just wanted to register to say the same thing. A one hour cellular call drains 17%, I've only had the phone a couple of weeks. Most wifi activity (streaming vids etc) seems fine, but making a regular call drains so much. I sometimes make several long calls in a day, so just three would drain over half of my battery.
Then click the "Me too" button and done ;-)

Apple doesn't read here for feedback or suggestions. If you want them to know your observations, use the feedback portal:
Have you updated to iOS 17.0.3 I was having the same issue but after the update it’s fine now and after some YouTubers review they’ve installed the iOS 17.1 it’s way better then the current one so if you haven’t updated your iPhone update and by tomorrow 17.1 would be released or maybe later today good luck!
