The iPhone 16 series is supposed to have larger batteries than the iPhone 15 models. That's usually the case with every new iPhone generation, though it doesn't always translate into better battery life estimates from Apple. The iPhone 15 is an example of that.
Leaks say all of the iPhone 16 models except the Plus are getting larger battery packs. The iPhone 16 Pro Max will feature the largest battery, at a rumored 4,676 mAh capacity. Combined with the more efficient A18 chips, the 2024 iPhones should feature better battery life. Some iPhone 16 leaks claim that's going to be the case.
Meanwhile, Android vendors working on the flagship phones competing against the iPhone 16 next year might feature massive battery packs that will dwarf the iPhone 16 models. Rumors say some vendors are already testing 5,500 mAh batteries for these devices. But it's not all good news. The same unconfirmed reports say the Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 chip will consume more battery life, hence these requirements.
