It seemed to be the last couple of times I was researching new phones. Though there is a significant caveat there that I don't buy top-of-the-range flagship devices as the hit when I break them is too high, perhaps the difference does not carry to the really fancy devices with all mod cons because they have more expensive but more efficient screens? The other caveat being that I'm going by 3rd party tests: this isn't something I've verified with my own study.
As mentioned above, overall tech could play a role in some larger and/or higher res screens doing better than they might compared to other models wrt battery life: IIRC Samsung use AMOLED screens which are generally more power efficient than the screens that might be used in my price range?
