Apple's OLED iPhone to fit a 2,700 mAh battery while being around the same size as the iPhone 7

13 February 2017
The device is expected to have a 5.2" to 5.8" touchscreen, so those accomplishments would be exceptional.

AnonD-612548, 13 Feb 20174000 is what they should aim for. 2900 will not last very longYour comment makes me cringe. Does anyone notice that the screen will be just about 5,2 inch in a less than 5 inch body?

    The multitasking implementation on Android allows any program to run in the background, for as long as it wants. An application can run as a service, completely in the background. An application can run at startup, on a schedule, based on events, or continue running after started by the user. While running in the background, an Android app can do anything it has been given permission to do.

    iOS does not allow true multitasking for third party apps. iOS only allows certain APIs to run in the background, such as audio streaming and push notifications. An app stops running the instant the user switches to another app. Apple gives their own apps multitasking abilities that other apps are not allowed to use.

    The negative for iOS is reduced functionality and the positive is superior smoothness of the system because there aren't any background app interfering with the app that is open and better energy management (anyway Android got Greenify for that). You'll never see something on iOS like an Android app that runs in the background monitoring various contexts, and reacting to them, such as "mute my phone when I place it on a table face down", "remind me to take medication when I get home" or apps like Moto Assist.

      The battery in the Lenovo Vibe P1 has almost the double capacity of the iPhone 7 Plus while the phone is almost the same size (slightly narrower and shorter but 2mm thicker): http://www.gsmarena.com/compare.php3?idPhone1=8065&idPhone2=7539

        Someone Else, 14 Feb 2017^This. Exactly this. Just like one of the arthors of GS... morejust adding..
        iphone 9 maybe : QHD screen (advertised as : sharpest smartphone ever). iphone 10 : finally system-wide file manager (and apple will advertise : now, copy mp3 to your phone directly, easier like never before). iphone 11 : reduced bezels (advertised as : more compact than ever). lol

          Just like one of the arthors of GSMArena said, "Apple always produce kinda-good products this year so that they can sell little-bit-better product the next year"

            this is what i hate about iPhone. they actually can put all-out technologies. But they put it one by one. good cam (ip 4), 16:9 ratio (ip 5), bigger body (ip 6), selfie cam (ip 6s), waterproof (ip 7), then battery and wireless charge (ip 8).
            They have loyal customers, that's an advantage and guarantee that customers always willing to upgrade because there is always new features, although those features already in android many years ago.
            Look at samsung. Owners of s6 will not always think to upgrade to s7, because s6 features are already all-out. s7 is just faster (and waterproof)

                Then how listen to music, how to stream videos, how to recieve notifications?

                IPhone simply controls it efficiently. Unlike android, which allow all kinds of running junks.. where you keep eyeballing daily on why yout battery drain like nuts.

                                AnonD-237381, 13 Feb 2017There are already tons of Android phones with better batter... moreBut imagine that battery inside an efficient iphone! I can't say anything without seeing the results first but I'm expecting good results :p

                                  It's not so mind blowing if you ask me. The fact that even the bigger iPhone 7 Plus only have 2900 mAh while the smaller Galaxy S7 edge have 3600 mAh battery just tells us that Apple just didn't wanted to increase the battery capacity all these years.

They don't care about MaH, they merely don't run background apps and it is how they sustain the good battery. A bit of how your car would have a better mileage if you remove all its seats and pretty much anything with weight in it (except the engine, main chasis and the rims/wheels). Of course your car would suck after that, but who cares as long as people keep praising it?

It's like cutting the legs and the hands of a person and then finding it amazing how few calories he needs to sustain himself (of course , you cut away 1/3rd of his body weight, it's obvious that his caloric needs went way down).
