Oh yes. Switched from the iPhone X to a 13 Pro only because the battery life became unbearable.
Overall, the size/format/handling of the X was *way better*.
Even the camera was *better on the X* except in low-light pictures which I don't really care about. The difference is noticeable on 4K screens and print, pictures were truthful without complex image enhancement algorithms that you can't disable (even not in RAW). Etc.

I’m still on the X after a $90 battery swap by an Apple shop. I got tired of the small payback doing them myself - and even the iFixit batteries don’t last as long as OEM.
