This is why using low power mode on iPhones with 120Hz refresh rate is a big trash. Check speed 👇🏽 On Normal mode On low power mode

Low-power mode itself just reduces the CPU speed and screen refresh rate. This feature is designed to be used when the phone is almost out of battery. The card is fine, but it does ensure that the battery doesn't drain too quickly

Yep yep

if you turn on low power mode when your battery is still 80% or above it’ll still try and maintain the speed but not fully fast unlike normal mode but when you turn on low power mode from 50% below . it’ll be real slow and worse at 20% below

Okayyy. Sha me I don’t know this one because I don’t totally make use of it.

@dixonxbt He is right

@dixonxbt I didn’t say he wasn’t

My phone is always on low power mode and it’s extremely fast as the first one

Oga which phone u dey use?

15pm

Then nothing like extremely fast. It is slow

@kumzzyy Dat one na lie na 15 pro I de use nd I’m always on battery saver e no de slow at all

@kumzzyy You people no sabi read. Remove it from the low power mode. Will the speed remain same with when it was on low power mode ?

@kumzzyy Right I can see the difference, my battery health is at 78 buh I notice whenever I use battery saver it saves my battery unlike when I’m not using it my battery drains quicker

@EmzyGadgets I have a good bh 91 But battery saver >>> I feel him If you’re recording you’ll see the difference shaa

Simply put: Low Power Mode dials the display down from 120Hz to 60Hz for efficiency.

It also turns of the background refreshing. It limits the strength of you network It dims brightness

Yeah.. so basically there’s no need to turn it on in the first place I am a power user and I want my phone to run with no hiccups

Na now I just dey see how 60Hz refresh rate works😂….i have been a pro max user from start and hardly press other people phone 😂🫴🏾…Omoh

It’s meant to reduce performance to manage low battery

I know

U no lie oo

That’s why I never use low power mode on my iPhone 17 even when running low on battery (I almost never run out of battery)

Difference dey true true sha

This one is even just from a screen record. If you’re to try it with your hands, you’ll vex and permanently delete low power mode.

My phone battery drops faster on Low power mode

😂 it saves nothing

So you would advice to get the 16 plus over 17 base ? I want to get brand new non active but I already have a good android for movies Netflix and shit like that and would always use the hotspot from the android Tecno spark slim so which of the iPhone would you recommend me to get ?

Wake me from sleep today, my answer will be 17.

Thanks boss 🙏

only on pro device pro and pro max not for ordinary

Ordinary is already slow. Aside 17

Weytin sup with that phone abeg… 24% don drop to 22% in 20 seconds video ? 😳

I don't use Low Power Mode often, but I have used it a few times. From what I've seen, once you turn it on, it drops the 120Hz ProMotion refresh rate down to 60Hz. It saves power precisely by lowering that refresh rate😲😲

Not me thinking it was my phone that had issues 😭😭

This wasn't an issue before iOS 26

Mày hiểu việc tiết kiệm pin 🔋 là gì không?

Or maybe it does what you are asking for… Lowering power consumption hence the name… You gimp

Na fake iPhone I day sell for you😅

Well that's the reason low power mode was made. To increase battery life and reducing the refresh rate does that significantly

Which battery life? 😹😹😹 It is only helpful incase you don’t have power nearby and your phone is getting low, but some people turned it to habit. They use it 24/7

But I dey use am when I wan game codm precisely cause I game for 2 hours plus and I play fast and Nml i don’t know what you taking about

Nothing concern old gen iPhone users for this convo 😂😂😂

Thank you.

there’s a settings in display, reduce motion just turn it back on, cause lower power mode automatically reduces the refresh rate to 60hz that’s why it looks slow, it is not, the display just looks laggy cause you are already used to the 120hz

I hate that notification shadow after you swipe up from notification center That’s something iOS is yet to get rid off Like when you swipe up you see see a shadow of the notification center

At this point, the battery it saves is no longer worth it 🤧 I’d prefer my phone die completely than to use low power mode and get maybe extra 30 mins of usage

It’s more obvious just becos Apple wants to prove a point in showing that you have dropped the hz of the phone

That’s why it’s called Low Mode for reasons limiting CPU GPU performance with 60hz and Background Data OFF

That’s the whole point of the feature

I know

So na everywhere, I been think say na my phone 😂

My thinking is that, it drops the refresh rate lower than 60hz, I used 60hx phone for long and it wasn't this laggy

even normal mode in screen record look trash

I purposely use 60hz cause all my previous iPhones had it but now I just happen to have a 120hz toggle 😂

Try it with liquid glass icons and you’ll see what slow is.
