According to Apple’s marketing, all four models in the iPhone 14 series offer slightly longer battery life than their direct predecessors. MacRumors was able to find out through an official database from China that the iPhone 14 (approx. 999 euros on Amazon) and the iPhone 14 Pro have slightly larger batteries than the iPhone 13 and iPhone 13 Pro.
With 3,279 mAh and 3,200 mAh, respectively, the batteries in Apple’s new 6.1-inch smartphones are 1.6 percent and 3.4 percent larger, respectively, than in the models from the previous year. Interestingly, this does not apply to the top model, because the battery of the iPhone 14 Pro Max is slightly smaller at 4,323 mAh than in the iPhone 13 Pro Max, which was still equipped with a 4,352 mAh battery. This reduces capacity by around 0.7 percent. This is how big the batteries are in comparison:
- iPhone 14: 3,279mAh
- iPhone 14 Plus: 4,325mAh
- iPhone 14 Pro: 3,200mAh
- iPhone 14 Pro Max: 4,323mAh
- iPhone 13 mini: 2,406mAh
- iPhone 13: 3,227mAh
- iPhone 13 Pro: 3,095mAh
- iPhone 13 Pro Max: 4,352mAh
According to Apple’s specs, all iPhone 14 series models last an hour longer than their predecessors when watching videos. While the two Pro models have not made any progress in video streaming and playing music, the iPhone 14 lasts a little longer than the iPhone 13 in these disciplines as well. The Apple A16 Bionic of the iPhone 14 Pro should be replaced by the more modern production work more efficiently in TSMC’s N4 process, but only more detailed tests will show whether the runtime of the Pro models is noticeably longer in practice.
