Max is better, but non-Max is bad. Call duration metric is actually good and useful. For example new Pixel 8 and 8 Pro have crap call score. What does it mean in real life - some people say that their pixel 8 has ok autonomy but after some investigation they admit that they use it at home/work on wifi. And then people using it on a cell network, especially in the bad reception zone, report atrocious life time, due to bad modem or something in that area. So it is important metric too.

Basically optimizations of the iphones can compensate maybe a few hundreds of mAh, but not 2000, that's not possible.
