Apple has updated its expectations for the battery life of the iPhone 15 and iPhone 15 Pro, with the company saying it will deliver twice the previously-predicted charge cycles.
Battery capacity has always been a problem for iPhone users, with complaints raised by some claiming that their smartphone’s battery isn’t holding as much charge as they would expect over time. While Apple has previously outlined its expectations for how long a battery should last, it has now doubled its claim.
Apple says its batteries for iPhones are designed to hold up to 80% of their original capacity following 500 complete charge cycles, namely from full to empty. Now, Apple told 9to5Mac that the number of cycles the iPhone 15 and iPhone 15 Pro are capable of retaining 80% of its charge for is 1,000 complete charging cycles.
