The phone is fine, not really finding anything special about it except being bigger which makes it easier for me to read text.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Traded an iPhone 14 Pro Max and never had to charge my phone. I could go a day and a half. I’m having to charge my 17 Pro Max by 5 PM.

Hello there, Thomas! 🚂 We appreciate you sharing your thoughts with us.

There are some things you could try to optimize your battery life: 1️⃣Enable low power mode: Reduces background activity, mail fetch, visual effects, and more. 2️⃣Reduce Screen Power Usage: -Auto‑Brightness: Settings → Accessibility → Display & Text Size → Auto‑Brightness. -Lower Brightness: Swipe down → reduce brightness slider. -Use Dark Mode: Settings → Display & Brightness → Dark. 3️⃣Limit Location Services: -Settings → Privacy & Security → Location Services. -Set most apps to “While Using the App” or "Never". This stops unnecessary GPS usage, a major battery drain. 4️⃣Avoid heat: Apple warns that heat degrades battery health over time. -Don’t leave your iPhone Air in a hot car or in direct sunlight. -Remove thick cases while charging if the phone gets warm. 5️⃣Charge Smartly -Keep battery between 20% and 80% when possible. -Enable Optimized Battery Charging: Settings → Battery → Battery Health. -Avoid leaving it plugged in overnight for long periods.
