Apple has recently launched its new iPhone 15 series, which features a 120Hz display, a faster processor- A16 and A17 chipset, a better camera system, and more. However, one thing that Apple has not revealed is the exact battery capacity of its new devices.
Apple usually does not disclose the battery capacity of its iPhones, but it has to do so in China, because of the regulatory requirements there. According to a report from a Chinese regulatory database, the battery capacities of the iPhone 15 series are as follows:
- iPhone 15: 3,349mAh
- iPhone 15 Plus: 4,383mAh
- iPhone 15 Pro: 3,274 mAh
- iPhone 15 Pro Max: 4,422mAh
These are slightly higher than the battery capacities of the iPhone 14 series, which were:
- iPhone 14: 3,279mAh
- iPhone 14 Plus: 4,325mAh
- iPhone 14 Pro: 3,200mAh
- iPhone 14 Pro Max: 4,323mAh
However, the official battery life ratings for video and audio playback are the same for both the iPhone 15 and iPhone 14 series. This means that Apple has managed to increase the battery capacity without compromising the battery performance of its devices.
Apple achieves this by using software optimization and power efficiency to extend the battery life of its devices. Apple also wants to keep its battery capacity a secret, to avoid comparison with other smartphone brands that have larger batteries but lower battery life ratings.
The company’s strategy has been successful so far, as the iPhone 15 series has received positive reviews and high demand from customers around the world.
