The iPhone 16 series batteries are expected to have larger capacities, leading to longer running times. The iPhone 16 Pro Max is rumored to have the largest capacity, around 600 to 750mAh more than the iPhone 16 Plus and over 1,000mAh more than the smaller models. Additionally, the new Apple A18 and A18 Pro chipsets are anticipated to offer significantly better power efficiency, extending battery life while also improving performance2.
