As pre-orders for the new iPhone 16 are set to launch tomorrow, a Brazilian regulatory body has disclosed important information regarding the battery capacities of the latest models. The findings indicate that there is an overall enhancement in battery size, particularly notable in the iPhone 16 Pro.
According to details reported by Blog do iPhone, these figures were validated through documents from Anatel, the National Telecommunications Agency of Brazil. It’s worth noting that Apple traditionally does not release specific battery capacity numbers, instead highlighting general battery life.
Here’s a summary of the battery capacities for the iPhone 16 lineup this year:
| Model | iPhone 15 Battery Capacity (mAh) | iPhone 16 Battery Capacity (mAh) | Percentage Increase (%) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Standard | 3,349 | 3,561 | 6.34% |
| Plus | 4,383 | 4,674 | 6.64% |
| Pro | 3,274 | 3,582 | 9.40% |
| Pro Max | 4,422 | 4,685 | 5.95% |
Recent reviews of the iPhone 16 Pro have noted a significant improvement in battery longevity, attributed to both larger battery sizes and enhanced efficiency provided by the new A18 chip. Additionally, Apple has claimed that the iPhone 16 series offers better thermal management, which also contributes to prolonged battery life.
For instance, a review by Tom’s Guide demonstrated that both the iPhone 16 Pro and Pro Max outperformed their predecessors in a 5G web browsing endurance test. The iPhone 16 Pro lasted 14 hours and 7 minutes, a significant increase from the previous 10 hours and 53 minutes, while the iPhone 16 Pro Max lasted 18 hours and 6 minutes, up from 14 hours and 2 minutes last year.
We plan to conduct comprehensive battery testing following the official release of the iPhone 16 and iPhone 16 Pro tomorrow. Nevertheless, it appears that we can look forward to substantial enhancements this year.
