At least according to Apple, the iPhone 12 and iPhone 11 have very similar battery life. However, unlike the iPhone 11, the iPhone 12 is the first sub-$1000 iPhone that has an OLED display. Therefore, we decided to test both phones to see how much of a difference using Dark Mode would make given Dark Mode's battery boosting effects on OLED screens.
Also, we included the iPhone 12 using Light Mode (aka regular mode) so you can see how much of a difference dark mode vs light mode makes on the iPhone 12.
TEST OBSERVATIONS:
- We've found that the iPhone 11 series offers better standby performance than the iPhone 12 series across the board. Hopefully this will be resolved in a future software update.
- Not all of the apps / uses in this test take advantage of dark mode, and this was by design to help provide a more realistic idea of how much dark mode can help battery life.
- Dark mode is going to have a bigger impact on phones with larger screens (since the battery savings come directly from saving on screen power consumption).
- Dark mode may also have a bigger impact on older OLED screens as the newer ones are generally more power efficient (for example, Apple claimed a 15% boost in efficiency from the iPhone XS to the iPhone 11).
TEST NOTES:
- Screens were calibrated to 200 nits with auto-brightness turned off.
- Speakers calibrated to the same decibel count.
- Tested within equal distance of a mini cell tower.
- Tested in a temperature controlled environment.
- All devices tested were new and had 100% battery health.

You cannot made an comparison with 2 different phones,iphone 12 and iphone 11,different battery capacity,different cpu and many other things.
Sure it’s not a perfect comparison, but in terms of LCD vs OLED it’s as close to an Apples to Apples comparison as you can get!
@@PhoneBuff No one cares about comparison between new vs older phone version,it is logical that newer product needs to be better in many ways.
@@TheGagi82 the newer IPhone Pro Max performs worse battery-wise than the iPhone from last year...
DisplayMate also measured the new iPhone 12 series' displays to be 10% more efficient over the 11 Pro's already 15% more efficient than the Xs' display.
The force of the dark side is strong
Disagree, THE END MATTERS!

Yessirrr
No, the light side is stronger to kill the battery
@@john.doe_0007 lol
Dark mode is better for your eyes, battery, and overall looks cleaner.
Haven't used Light mode ever since Dark mode got added
Same here!
I set my Dark Mode on a schedule (It turns on @ 7:05 PM, and turns off @ 10:00 AM.)
Same
Same. I've been using my dark mode for almost 2 years straight on my s9+
It's actually not better for your eyes because your eye gets used to this black background and as soon as you see the white text your pupils will not get smaller and you burn in this white. After years of doing that (in extreme cases) it could lead to bad sight.
Dark Mode All Things!
Wow if Saif is impressed then everyone should be..
hi saf which phone to buy 11 pro max or 12?
@@ahmarali8588 12 pro max or 11 pro or 11 pro max 🤑🤑
@@ahmarali8588 go with uhh..suggests u 11 pro max for battery and general performance and some heavy gaming as well...if u want to enjoy performance then how with 12...will uh just go with yours lmao
Woah
This guy really just built a whole robot and wrote a whole code for the robot just for these types of videos..
That's insane.
What next? One day robots will make reviews and other robots will watch on youtube LOL)))
@@gen1kk underrated reply😹🔥🔥
fr wtf ☠️
I guess these type of robots are available in the market and many CZcamsrs use it for automation of various touchscreen tests.
Whats even more crazy is the random malfunctions apple codes into the iPhone 13 when the screen or battery is swapped to give the appearance of random glitch's.
I only use dark mode on my lcd display because i don't want to get blinded at night lol
czcams.com/video/fHI8X4OXluQ/video.html
Ofcoz
It's not the white that blinds but the light coming from the display. With OLED, the pixels actually go off in dark mode so no light coming from the display.
Same
Love boy u r intelligent 👍
When you realise that people use dark mode as its light on eyes not for battery life
that’s actually the point, the battery efficiency is just a bonus
@@mastertvlogs8737 which is funny cause dark mode was actually mAde for OLED display phones just for battery life 😝

I use it for battery life on my battery hungry S9 but that too lol.
@@racistrnin5004 Oml its so good no its not go to hell.
Phonebuff never disappoints in a battery test 🗣
I have to say that you're completely right!

Glad that you included iphone 12 with light mode too!
The dark side is a pathway to many abilities some consider it...
Unnatural...

Aren't they so creative to reuse Palatine again and not come up with a new good villan.
Insane quality & accuracy tests. :o) Never stop doing this!
These are the real world tests I want to see! Thanks man
Been looking for this review for a while, tysm!!
Wow, I didn't expect this kind of result b/w OLED light and OLED dark. Thanks for sharing.
This is the most practical battery test I've seen.
Great work.
Phonebuff tests are the best
Thank you for this tests, it answers our questions about the iPhone 12
For some reason i never get tired of that intro
Youve just got all the best tech videos on here
This is a well made test, thanks for making this video!
I’ve been using scheduled dark mode because I thought it was cool to switch between both modes, but I think I’m going to permanently keep it on dark mode because of the additional battery benefits! Thank you for this test
The only battery test I care about

@@racistrnin5004 my antivirus doesn’t let me in because your channel must be a virus or something lmao
I was waiting for this vid thx 😊
phonebuff videos seems so accurate.
thumbs up for that 👍
Also, if you watch a video not in fullscreen mode you can have even a greater advantage with oled display
Lol
well yea probably but tbh who doesn't use full screen when watching a video ?
@@_galterius Well, they are Just choices:
In a standard 16:9 video like this on the sceens with 19,5:9 aspect rateo of new iphones, you can either watch with black bars or do a 21,8% zoom and lose the 24,4% of the content (when considering zooming to fit, notch and rounded corners)
I don't think one option could be just better than the other, cause for me it depends a lot on the content, like where are the useful info and how much margin has the subject
@@riccardopezzani oh yea I see what you mean now, didn't think about that zooming in thing
@@_galterius oh don’t worry is ok, I made the wrong calculations and the losing % is 20.5 , so seems like I wasn’t thinking about it too
These battery tests are incredible! Stellar content !
Thanks for posting your video to end 2020 on a good note
Love your videos, this is how to make tests in devices!
Happy new year everyone
I always use dark mode and I’m happy to see I’ve been doing the right thing with my Oled display iPhones
Now this is a test. Thanks!
That was A Fire Test 🔥🔥
That is why I waited to see this test before cementing the fact that a smaller battery won't lead to any drains in the battery even from 12 to 11 light mode. And since I use my iPhone in dark mode and not only for the battery gains it was a no-brainer when it came to which one should I buy. Also, OLED content cannot be compared to what LCD brings even though it doesn't matter for a lot of people, it does for me. So thank you @PhoneBuff for making this test!
You are one of the oldest tech reviewer but so much underrated 😥😔
Take lot of loves from us(fans of you). Ours support is with you.
happy new year!
Thank you for the really fast and short video u r awesome
The test we needed!
Finally a comparison between OLED and LCD!
czcams.com/video/oz_4vsvvMSQ/video.html this guy play like monster ❤️
from what i learned long time ago dark mode makes biggest deference battery wise on full brightest, like when you using your phone outside on a sunny day. Testing oled on full brightness dark mode vs light mode might be interesting.
much awaited video
You have REALLY professional tools!
Hey, can you make an iPhone 11 dark mode vs light mode battery test video!
from what I remember, LED's actually prefer colours closer to white since it doesn't need to do anything to them, that probably would have been the better test
Phonebuff tests are simple the best
Great great I wanna see this video from a long time good on u mate 🥳🥳
Dark mode on my 7 felt nicer. But on the OLED panel of my 12 mini it changes everything
Dark mode can battery saver ONLY for Oled/Amoled display..
Dark mode can use for LCD, TFT, or IPS if night day
I'm using LCD IPS so i turn on Dark mode at 6 PM
Thank you for this video !
Great video mate. Makes a lot of sense
I always have dark mode on on my phone. It just feels a lot better for my eyes
one of the reason's why i always use Dark mode, easier on the eyes and on the Battery. plus it looks much better too, i love Dark mode
czcams.com/video/oz_4vsvvMSQ/video.html this guy play like monster
Nice information once again, thank you
Really interesting, thanks
An iPhone 11 in light mode would have been nice to see how light mode on an lcd screen compares
Please do side by side comparison between two LCD devices. And bust the myth once and for all of "whether dark mode helps save battery in devices with LCD displays"
Nice battery test
Amazing videos
I keep waiting for your videos to come and as today is New Year’s Eve I would like to wish you
HAPPY NEW YEAR 🥳
KEEP MAKING THESE TYEPS OF VIDESO
Been doing this since my lumia 925 and galaxy note 2, 7 years ago
They really should have done this with lcd vs lcd to see if dark mode has any advantage on an lcd
Exactly. Surprised that no one actually did that test on CZcams
Thanks for all the NUMBERS!💕🌟
Really this video is useful
I love my 11. It’s ocd looks fantastic and I came from a 2k oled android before this. The 11 is the most consistent phone I’ve ever used and the battery is the only one o have ever trusted in a phone. This thing works and works very well. Also has a U1 chip and WiFi 6.. future-proof.
isnt an oled android better looking than the lcd display of iphone 11
You must be blind. Going from 1440p OLED to 720p LCD is like going from a lambo to a sedan. Big L right here
@@xoppa09 of course it is
OLED on Android is way better tho. You definitely didn't have a actually OLED lmao. You must be blind or your lying. I went to loads to tech shops and I compared OLED to lcd side by side, OLED wins by a lot
@@rocketpencil5948 exactly man. A blind person can tell that oled is better
“I Honestly don’t know why I keep responding to you. You keep texting me nonsense.”
It’s English but A cat would never understand...
What a nice video. Subbed.
Nice one. Thanks.
I would like to see a Lcd based dark mode vs light mode. It should perform the same but I'd still watch it
it doesnt perform completely identical, even on an lcd id guess it would save around 2-3% of battery life.
@@theyigo9362 🙉🤡🙏🤪🤪🤪🤑
does the dark mode affects the battery timings on LCDs?
Finally added an oled display, I was waiting for this for ages for gods sake.
Great test!
Well, we have to also take into consideration the fact that the A14 chip is 5nn against the 7nm A13, thus, is more battery efficient.
The only fair comparison i can take for this is the Iphone 12 light vs Iphone 12 dark modes, since it's the same chip. But the fact that the difference between Iphone 12 light vs Iphone 11 is only 4%.... That's pretty underwhelming...
I'm just surprised how apple actually added the dark mode
I've always had dark mode
It existed before the iPhone x
Omg are you real Elsa omggg
Nc battery test as always
Nice work!
Request: S21 Ultra Vs Iphone 12 Pro max speed test, battery test, and DROP TEST!!
3:14 Samsung Internet does have control over how the content is displayed if you use dark mode it changes the website to dark mode.
That’s forced dark mode by altering the site color palette, most of the times it works but it sometimes it made some sites unreadable.
Safari also controls dark mode in web, but only if the site itself has their own dark mode configuration.
YES.Finally someone else who is smart.
@@rommysoeli At least you have the option to do so. That alone is worth it imho.
you can do the same in iphone using firefox
@@justanotherslaveofallah1622 cant u do it with ur native browser suckers
Perfect comparison :)
Best test ever. ❤️
Thank you Samsung for starting the OLED trend in smartphones. It's one of the most incredible display tech till date
czcams.com/video/oz_4vsvvMSQ/video.html this guy play like monster ❤️
Yes exactly. Galaxy S1, fucking S1, had this tech and I still have it in my drawer.
@@AWA-jv6rt Samsung has always been the leader when it comes to innovation.
@@gliese21x46 Sony is not innovating per se right now. The Xperia 1 and 5 in 2020 has just them straying away from the market trend and keeping the fundamental like a notch less but has bezel and headphone jack.
I love oled!
“What about bigger battery than iPhone 11 and oled display?”
Apple: *Thanos “impossible” meme*
by far the best testing you should test 5g vs 4g
Now this is quality content.
3:20 use DARK MODE ON OPERA .

Do 2 LCD screens, 1 with dark mode & 1 in light mode (same phone)
He already did just search light mode vs dark mode battery on youtube and the first video of his channel will come up
@@Rayan-jx3sn thanks
Thanks for your sharing
Happy new year
This video Earned you a sub! I was really wondering how iPhone 11 & 12 perform against one another specially with the Darkmode turned on and tho I was expecting some 20-25% better over the current 13% result for almost 300mah smaller battery irs still phenomenal. tho when we use 5G on 12 it's going to drain much faster which makes me wonder why Apple didn't increase or atleast keep the battey same on iphone 12. but then again, it's apple.
Definitely not first but I clicked as quickly I could
Great video!
I love that intro 😍
Using dark mode in the afternoon I consider it insane. Especially during summer. Because you’ll struggle to see the screen
That's what I do lol
I always use dark mode in any situation I like it much more and I don't have nay issues with outdoor visibility
@@Alirezarz62 I use it and the only problem I have is the paranoid about that the OLED will get burn in
@@GTAandApplechannel dark mode doesn't cause burn in
@@DrAdityaReddy I know but …
Waiting for that exynos vs snapdragon vs apple bionic!
Happy new year🥳🥳🥳
I’m switching from the iPhone 8 to the google pixel 2 xl black and I’m very excited about the OLED display and camera and battery! Loved the video!
him: hahaha oled good
me who is living with iphone 7: _whats oled_
Remember iOS 7 when everything was white lol
Not when you jailbreak it and install a dark mode tweak. Thats what i did.
The dark dinamic wallpaper on the iPhone 12 looks so good!
I'm very exited for the Galaxy S21 tests
Damn, I was sure the 11 had better battery life since the resolution was lower, I think this video convince me to save some extra money for the 12.
I Got iPhone 12 Mini , Its Too Good But It Loses Nearly 6-8 % Battery During Standby.
Waiting for speed test of 12 pro max and s21 ultra.
I can’t wait for all of his test for those phones to come out!!
@Agwali not quite the same but was still a good video.
@Agwali Yeah. There is no comparison to Phonebuff speed test. It’s very impressive. anyway thanks for your effort
I see PhoneBuff's notification, I click 😁
clever test!
