The next iPhone 16 Pro Max should benefit from new features. New features that would improve its autonomy!
We are now only a few months away from Apple’s next back-to-school keynote, during which the Cupertino company will present its new smartphones from the iPhone 16 range. This is why we always know a little more about these phones , thanks to the increasing leaks. And today, the improvements that will be made to the future iPhone 16 Pro Max are revealed.
A denser battery for the iPhone 16 Pro Max
Apple’s devices, as popular as they are, have never been renowned for their battery life. A question that is taken head-on within the American company, which seeks to provide solutions. And the one that will be integrated into the iPhone 16 Pro Max could be interesting.
Thus, according to analyst Ming-Chi Kuo, the battery of this model should benefit from cells with a greater energy density (Wh/kg) than that of the previous generation. This technological advance would therefore make it possible, for a battery of the same size, to offer greater autonomy.
The advantages of stainless steel
Unfortunately, Ming Chi-Kuo was unable to provide details on the size of the upcoming iPhone 16 Pro Max battery. Rumors published at the beginning of the year indicated that Apple could increase the battery of some of the models in the iPhone 16 range.
The analyst also explains that Apple has decided to change the material surrounding the battery, aluminum giving way to stainless steel. “ Stainless steel is not as effective as aluminum at dissipating heat, but it is sturdier and less susceptible to corrosion » he indicated.
Another advantage, and not the least, “ Using a stainless steel battery case also reduces the difficulty of removing the battery, which will help Apple comply with the European Union’s requirements for replaceability of mobile phone batteries in the future. »
