News hardware All iPhone 14s will have a bigger battery, except one
Published on 06/27/2022 at 06:40
the iPhone 13 Pro Max, the latest from Apple and released in 2021 with the rest of the iPhone 13, would be the only one not to benefit from a larger battery capacity. it’s a blessing in disguise, knowing that he is already the king in this category.
A bigger battery, except for the largest iPhone 14
Autonomy is a key criterion in the purchase of a smartphone, and Apple has understood this well by offering even improved endurance on the iPhone 13 released in September. The iPhone 13 Pro Max, the largest of all, even climbs to the top step of the podium and can last up to two days in intensive use.
The Twitter account with the rather comical name of ShrimpApplePro is new in the world of leaks but has already proven itself. His last tweet evokes the capacities of the batteries of the iPhone 14, while specifying that nothing is really confirmed.
iPhone 14 series battery capacity, note that this is not confirmed.
14 3279 mAh
14 Max 4325 mAh
14 Pro 3200 mAh
14 Pro Max 4323 mAh

Here are the numbers:
- iPhone 14 (6.1 inches): 3279 mAh, up slightly from the iPhone 13
- iPhone 14 Max (6.7 inches): 4325 mAh
- iPhone 14 Pro (6.1 inches): 3200 mAh, up slightly from the 13 Pro
- iPhone 14 Pro Max (6.7 inches): 4323 mAh, down slightly from the 13 Pro Max
As leaked for a long time, the mini version of the iPhone which has existed for two years should disappear in favor of a Max version which takes up the large size of the Pro Max version (6.7 inches), and which therefore carries a battery. similar.
Concretely, these changes are not going to be a game changer and if they turn out to be confirmed, it is certainly a pity that we do not see a real improvement but this is already a very positive point of the iPhone 13. Only the 13 mini is a little limited, but does not will be more in the race for 2022.
Contrary to what many still think, the iPhone is no longer a dunce in terms of autonomy. This was certainly the case until the iPhone 7 released in 2016, but since then Apple has improved a lot, in particular by stopping betting on the finesse of products.
This is perhaps one of the positive consequences of the departure of Jony Ive, legendary head of the brand’s design team, and for whom the refined look was the priority. As soon as the iPhone X was released, the models have constantly gained in thickness and therefore in battery capacity. And nobody complains about it.
Of course we don’t forget the optimization of hardware and software that allows Apple to offer similar or better autonomy than the competition with batteries with lower total capacities than Android. We hope that the brand improves it further for the iPhone 14 and offers better autonomy than the physical evolution of the batteries.
