Apple iPhone 13 lineup batteries detailed
Apple introduced the iPhone 13 series last week, and as usual, while it hyped up their battery lives it omit any details on their capacities. A filing appeared during the weekend, revealing the capacity of the batteries, and showing how much they have increased.
The iPhone 13 Pro has gained the most, while iPhone 13 mini comes the closest to its predecessor both in absolute and in percentage terms.
Phone | Wh Rating | Approximate mAh | Increase over 2020 model |
iPhone 13 mini | 9.34 | 2,438 | 9% |
iPhone 13 | 12.41 | 3,240 | 15% |
iPhone 13 Pro | 11.97 | 3,125 | 11% |
iPhone 13 Pro Max | 16.75 | 4,373 | 18.5% |
Interestingly, the iPhone 13 and the iPhone 13 Pro have different batteries this time around, unlike their predecessors. It's not a huge difference, but when you consider that the vanilla 13 also doesn't have a 120Hz screen to worry about it may well have a significant endurance advantage.
