Fix 2: Change 5G Settings
If you are using a 5G network on your iPhone, then it will affect your battery life. But starting with the iPhone 12, every new iPhone has a 5G network connectivity option. As we all know, the most recent 5G network is relatively new technology, but still it needs a lot of improvements to fully utilized.
In most cases, the devices get stuck while enabling the 5G network. As you know, the 5G network drains your iPhone battery faster than you might think. We suggest you change the 5G network on your iPhone device to consume battery power. Simply, Head over to Settings select Cellular and tap Cellular Data Options > Voice & Data. Here, you will see three options: 5G On, 5G Auto, and LTE.
If you select the 5G On option then your device will keep using 5G services until you change it. On the other hand, if you select 5G Auto, your iPhone will use 5G services only when it finds a compatible 5G network. However, this will not affect your iPhone’s battery life. In the end, the LTE option will completely disable 5G services, therefore you won’t access the 5G network on your iPhone.
According to your taste and preferences, you can select any of each option. If you want to fix battery life draining issues then we suggest you select the last two. If it doesn’t work, try the next solution.
