does a dual nano sim iphone drain more battery than a normal one?

Hi, im planning to buy the new iphone 15 pro but kinda stuck on whether to buy a dual sim version(China Mainland) or a Single Sim Version(Greece).


I'm worried about the dual sim would drain more battery than the other one. Has anyone ever done a test? Not sure if that will affect anything.


Thanks

The differences in power consumption by the SIMs are trivial compared w/ the other power demands of the phone.


I’d suggest NOT purchasing the Chinese market phone as it does NOT have eSIM capability. (unless China IS your primary residence ???)


That might not seem like much of a consideration today, but it’s where technology is quickly headed.


Plus the warranty will only be valid in China.


It’s ALWAYS best to purchase a phone in the region of primary residence / use.
