Ok so screen brightness seems to be the main factor in battery life. What do you typically have yours set too? I generally keep it at about 25% most of the time.

0-85%. But at night while it’s really dark, I use white point. I have a shortcut on my Home Screen for it. It sets white point balance to 70%.

I do like a nice bright screen on my iPhone and iPad which is one of the reasons I swapped the mini 6 for a second hand 11" pro 2018.Brightness usually set around 1/3 brightness.

0-25% for me too. I prefer reading in the dark, brightness almost all the way down. I find I can read for hours and hours like this.

I keep my mini-LED iPad Pro 5th Gen around 60% almost all of the time. Any brighter and the whites get very bright and blinding to me.
