Several days? Surely you meant weeks? Unless you spent an hour or two calling on the phone every day, of course.

I get 5-10 days out of my iPhone depending on desire for leisure. In the "dumb" era the number was about 2-3 weeks, even when I was young and always texting throughout the day.

I probably use the phone a lot more than you. My iPhone has to be charged at least twice a day, and it’s not even that old. My current iPhone is an iPhone 14 Pro.

Yeah that definitely sounds like you're constantly on the phone - or at the very least keep everything and then some running in the background with app refresh and location services etc. enabled.

Guilty as charged :p

Don't you mean discharged?

That's what people are using iPhones for these days?

Talking on the phone, like some sort of psychopath...
