My only explanation is that the ProMotion, hence the GPU, decided to consume more. It’s evident on how YouTube and the games depleted 30% of the battery while the iPhone 15 Plus was just chill.
And that seems like a problem on both Pro Max. Videos and Games on 120Hz means low battery life. I wonder how it would have lasted ProMotion was disabled and keep the brightened at the same nits.
I don’t have any lag people are talking about in low power mode ¯_(ツ)_/¯ I use it all the time cause I have really long work shifts and I can type and take pictures and videos etc perfectly fine, on my old 13 pro and this 15 pro max
I guess one could switch on low power mode to limit it to 60 Hz. Not very hopeful though because I’ve read of 13/14 Pro users getting crazy lag when on low power.

I wish there was an option to limit it to 60 Hz. You’d still have the benefits of variable refresh rates, but with lower battery consumption.
Settings > accessibility > motion > limit frame rate
sigh This option shouldn’t be hidden in accessibility.
Does it reduce the frame rate to 60 HZ?
it caps it to 60hz but isn’t fixed, retaining promotion/VRR. I think the “normie” way to do it is low power mode
I have the normal iPhone 15 so can’t test it, but according to people, low normal mode introduces a lot of lag.
It just feels weird that regular iPhones are the one to recommend right now.
