After reading the articles, this is the statement that best mirrors my experience.
"To be fair, no one is going to surf the web continuously until the battery dies, and our test is not designed to mirror real-world use. In fact, thanks to Google’s Tensor chip and tools like Extreme Energy Saver mode, you should be able to get through most of the day (if not more) on a charge."
The testing this site performance showed the 6 Pro lasted 7.5 hrs with continuous use on 5G, and just over 10 hrs continuous use with 5G disable/LTE selected.
I've hit 7 hours SOT several times on 5G. In my world, this is more than sufficient battery life, regardless of what a smartphone website tells me is "acceptable".
Especially when 95% of users have access to an outlet most of the time.
People would be much happier if they'd just enjoy their devices and stop expecting every new device to be "the" best device in every category
