I’m fine with this, as long as it translates to significantly better battery life.

If my 13 Pro Max is anything to go off, I get to roughly 30-40% after two days of regular use (including light/medium doomscrolling, but no games) for the last two years.

I've been able to get up to five days with light use and low battery mode.

I can’t see why it wouldn’t? Their chips are insanely power efficient yet class leading in power, and every time they’ve gotten bigger batteries it’s been a huge leap in battery life.

If they could offer an iPhone with the exact same performance as my 12 pro (with reduced power usage due to a node shrink) and a much larger battery life I’d upgrade so fast.

I haven't updated my phone since it became clear that Apple was going to have to eventually switch to USB-C. Really looking forward to upgrading after 5 years!

This is good news! I still have have iPhone 8 plus so the iPhone 15 might be my next phone.

Probably best to take with some skepticism but great if true

The source is without a proven track record, but the alleged capacities seem plausible, especially given the fact that this year's iPhone models are expected to get slightly thicker, providing more internal space for larger batteries.

iPhone updates getting milder every year. Guess this is peak iPhone.

I’m ready to upgrade my 11. Better battery would be great.
