i really don’t know why Low Power mode gets so much hate lol isn’t this totally acceptable for a phone running with most of its performance cores disabled

Nah bro. It’s still mostly unusable.

it’s literally not. did you even watch the video..? 😭 calling it unusable is such an exaggeration

🚨 BREAKING NEWS With low power mode, your phone saves battery by disabling some of it’s functions and running more slowly Seriously, people thinks the phone will magically consume less power with the mode on or what ?

NO, it wasnt this shit in iOS 17, it is unusable for me in iOS 26, its so horrible.

It’s the 60hz that bugs most people

android fanboys when a phone with all performance cores disabled doesn’t run at 4k120Hz 🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯

All* The P-cores get completely shut down. And tbh yes it feels unusable... especially since it also cuts off ProMotion

people actually shocked that iPhone runs on low power for tasks when turning on low power mode??

I agree with people that it makes peoples phones lag, on my 15 pro it gets really laggy, but it’s fine… it’s LOW power mode for a reason, DESIGNED to save battery.

I would LOVE a low power mode with a 90hz cap. It’s not the cores being disabled I have a problem with it’s going from 120hz to 60. It’s a jarring difference especially when my phone, laptop, and Xbox all run at 120hz or higher

Super super lagging on iPhone 15 pro max. Hate using low power mode.

It literally doesn’t help with preserving battery life lol all it does is make my phone lag

rn it runs smoothly, but when the battery gets low to 20%, the frames start to drop. 😭😭

Old low power ran much better. Now it’s so glitchy. I have 120HZ off at all times but as soon as I turn on low power mode the phone lags doing basic tasks or going home/app switcher

My iPhone 16 get slow every time I enable Low Power.

This nigga thinks the use of a phone includes just rapidly opening and closing apps lmaoo. Low power mode on iPhone will always remain shit. And this is coming from an Apple fanboy lmaooo. I don’t know what the fuck you’re defending here.

I feel like LPM makes my iPhone's battery drain more </3

tech twitter needs the engagement farm money

Because its literally unusable - 16 Pro Max 26.4 93% BH. If i start opening and closing apps like you it starts to lag like hell and it kills apps the moment you close them.

Perhaps

Yh, if you have 50% battery health 💀💀💀

My iPad and 16 Plus goes so laggy when I use this, more noticeably when I use socials

the point is that LPM makes more lag and stutters on iOS 26 than older versions.

It’s bad for us using iPhones 12 and downwards 😭

Ios 26 animations are so ass on 60hz.. 18 was sooo much better..

do this on an older iPhone and you'll see

It’s not stable. After intense usage it lags the phone

On the 14 pro it’s ultra laggy and apps take up to 3 seconds to load don’t get me started with taking pictures 😭

It didn't use to be this bad on iOS 15 on older iPhones. In fact, I used it all the time. Now, it makes a new phone run slower than an iPhone 7.

dayum is that your hand lol

The lag got a bit worse with iOS 26

My mom had low power mode turned on and was wondering why her phone was running like shit. iOS 18 never had this issue

seems like your limit frame rate is onn making it lock to 60hz and be smoother on LPM

I used it before I got a phone with high refresh rate but now it’s unusable for me

it’s super inconsistent for me. sometimes it runs fine even tho you do notice 120hz lacking, but in other cases my glorious 16 Pro works literally like an iPhone 4 updated to ios 7
