A new day, a new rumor about the iPhone 15A new day, a new rumor about the iPhone 15, which we expect Apple to unveil this upcoming fall. Devices whose design and several features have already been leaked, and now surprise us with an unexpected rumor that everyone is celebrating. models of the iPhone 15 will have much more battery life.
The iPhone with the highest battery life in their history
The origin of this information comes from a recent report by ITHome, which claims to have spoken with a supposed employee of Foxconn – the company responsible for the majority of smartPhone production. According to the report, the iPhone 15 lineup will feature significantly larger batteries in all its models. These excellent news could potentially turn into truly magnificent news, as we will see in the following paragraphs.
The report states that the iPhone 15 will feature an 18% larger battery, while the iPhone 15 Plus and iPhone 15 Pro will have a 14% larger battery. The exact changes in capacity are described as follows:
The 2021 iPhone 13 had a capacity of 3,227mAh, which increased to 3,279mAh for the 2022 iPhone 14. The upcoming iPhone 15 is expected to have a capacity of 3,877mAh.Similarly, the iPhone 13 Mini had a capacity of 2,406mAh in 2021, but it was surpassed by the 2022 iPhone 14 Plus with 4,325mAh. The iPhone 15 Plus is anticipated to reach 4,912mAh.
In the Pro series, the 2021 iPhone 13 Pro had a capacity of 3,095mAh, which slightly increased to 3,200mAh in the 2022 iPhone 14 Pro. The iPhone 15 Pro is expected to feature a battery capacity of 3,650mAh.As for the Pro Max model, it went from a 4,352mAh battery in the 2021 iPhone 13 Pro Max to 4,323mAh in the 2022 iPhone 14 Pro Max.
The iPhone 15 Pro Max is estimated to reach 4,852mAh.If these figures are accurate, the iPhone 15 Plus would have a larger battery capacity compared to the Pro Max model, while the 15 Pro would still have the smallest battery among the iPhone 15 lineup. While the iPhone 15 Pro has the same physical size as the iPhone 15, it includes an extra camera and more components. This is why we expect the new periscope camera to be exclusive to the iPhone 15 Pro Max.
In fact, as has been the norm, the largest battery is allocated to the Plus model, which, with less internal complexity, has maximum space for it. This space is expected to increase this year. It’s worth noting that with the iPhone 14, Apple eliminated the presence of the tray for a physical SIM card in the United States.
To tie all the pieces together, let’s recall that earlier this year, rumors suggested that iPhones sold in France could also follow the same path as their US counterparts, adopting a virtual SIM. While we don’t have specific data, it is highly plausible that the European version of the iPhone and other significant markets could make the switch to a virtual SIM, allowing for more battery capacity across the entire iPhone 15 range.
In addition to this, the improvement in efficiency of the A17 Bionic chips designed for these phones would result in a significant qualitative leap with TSMC’s optimized manufacturing processes.battery life. Of course, we will have to wait for Apple’s official presentation to confirm these details, but the numbers sound very promising indeed.
