TheiPhone16 is starting to sound like a huge upgrade. Just days after we discovered thatApple intends to give it a serious RAM upgradein order to run Apple Intelligence, a new report says that significantly better battery efficency is coming too. For the iPhone 16, it seems, Apple is getting more metal.
We mean that literally. According to industry analyst Ming-ChiKuo,Appleis planning to use a stainless steel casing that will enable Apple to use much more dense batteries: that tougher casing will enable Apple to boost the density of the battery cells to deliver more power without also delivering more explosions.
However, don’t expect a huge increase in battery life: the move to Apple Intelligence is likely to mean more demands on the battery, so the change may just deliver what previous Apple iPhone battery improvements have done and enable Apple to deliver the same longevity from more demanding processing.
The battery report tracks with the late 2023 rumours of an iPhone 16 Pro with a metal battery casing, and it also ties in with reports of how Apple plans to meet new EU legislation.
What’s going on with the iPhone 16 battery?
As ever, we’re expecting to see the next iPhone in September this year alongside the launch of the nextiOSversion, in this caseiOS 18.
