Description:
New rumors suggest the entire iPhone 15 line could be set for larger 
batteries than their respective predecessors.

FULL STORY
======================================================================

Over the past year, weve heard all manner of rumors concerning the iPhone 15 
design , iPhone 15 specs , and iPhone 15 price , but speculation around the 
phones battery credentials hasnt been so forthcoming. 

Now, though, were hearing that the iPhone 15 family will feature 
significantly larger batteries across the board, meaning the iPhone 15 , 
iPhone 15 Plus, iPhone 15 Pro , and iPhone 15 Pro Max could last much longer 
than their respective iPhone 14 predecessors. 

This rumor comes from an alleged Foxconn worker who, speaking to ITHome , 
claims that the iPhone 15 will feature an 18% larger battery, the iPhone 15 
Plus and iPhone 15 Pro a 14% larger battery, and the iPhone 15 Pro Max a 12% 
larger battery. 

If youre interested in the actual numbers, weve detailed the rumored battery 
capacities of each iPhone 15 model below: iPhone 15 : 3,877mAh (vs 3,279mAh 
on iPhone 14) iPhone 15 Plus : 4,912mAh (vs 4,325mAh on iPhone 14 Plus) 
iPhone 15 Pro : 3,650mAh (vs 3,200mAh on iPhone 14 Pro) iPhone 15 Pro Max : 
4,852mAh (vs 4,323mAh on iPhone 14 Pro Max) 

As mentioned, this is the first real battery rumor weve heard regarding the 
iPhone 15 line, though thats not to say it lacks plausibility. The iPhone 15 
and iPhone 15 Plus are tipped to inherit the A16 Bionic chip used by the 
iPhone 14 Pro and iPhone 14 Pro Max  which should bring familiar efficiency 
improvements  while the iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 15 Pro Max will almost 
certainly benefit from an even-more-efficient A17 Bionic chipset . Image 1 of

Incidentally, we have heard that Apple is working on a reverse wireless 
charging feature for the iPhone 15 line , and if true, the iPhone 15 Pro will 
be able to wirelessly charge other Apple gadgets, where the iPhone 14 Pro 
cant. Coupled with improved battery life, this feature could further widen 
the gap between Apples next standard and Pro iPhones. 

Its also worth reiterating here that, following new EU regulations , every 
phone in the iPhone 15 lineup is expected to get a USB-C port , meaning you 
wont be able to use your existing Apple Lightning cables to juice them up. 

And finally, in the same ITHome report, Foxconn employees have reportedly 
claimed that the iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 15 Pro Max will ship with 256GB of 
storage as standard. In other words, Apple will be dropping the 128GB base 
storage configuration for both of its upcoming Pro models, with the standard 
iPhone 15 and iPhone 15 Plus expected to retain their predecessors respective 
configuration options. 

Weve heard this rumor once before, but its repetition so close to the iPhone 
15 lines presumed September launch adds further weight to its accuracy.
