What would be an example of power user on a phone?
What test can I perform to see for myself.
Power user would be someone who uses their phone heavily and for tasks an ordinary user wouldn't do much of.
A lot of times phones have placebo great battery life because light users don't tax the hardware. Give it to a power user doing media manipulation, video analysis, tons of photography/videography, a lot of high end gaming, etc. On the device and that's when issues like overheating and performance throttling start to become a problem.
When the performance is limited. Some things can start to take 30-50% longer to accomplish, and often these aren't split second tasks for the phone.
The phone is also designed to drop frames/limit screen refresh rate under some circumstances to keep power draw down to a manageable level.
There is so much that LG did that simply doesn't need to be done with an S805 to achieve equal or better battery life compared to an S800/801 device with a 1080p panel.
