The new iPhone 13 have introduced important innovations at the level of hardware. Among these novelties is the new A15 Bionic chip that mounts a new 6-core CPU, a new 4 or 5-core GPU depending on the model and the 16-core Neural Engine. In addition, the new Super Retina XDR display is more efficient and allows less energy consumption. This combo of hardware firsts It has allowed the batteries of the iPhone 13 to be more efficient and increase the autonomy with respect to the iPhone 12. Next we analyze the battery life of the new iPhone range.
The batteries of the new iPhone 13 to study
The importance of autonomy in a device is key to deciding whether to buy it or not. In the case of iPhones, Apple places a lot of emphasis in its presentations on the improvement of the battery with respect to the previous generation. Increasing battery life can come in two ways. First, an increase in battery size providing greater capacity and therefore longer use time. Or second, reducing the consumption of the device making it more efficient producing a decrease in consumption.
For Apple, the autonomy of its devices is measured in the time of video playback, video streaming and audio playback. In fact, according to official data the iPhone 13 and 13 Pro Max have 2,5 more hours of autonomy and iPhone 13 mini and iPhone 13 Pro 1,5 more hours than their counterparts in the iPhone 12 range.
This is the table in which the batteries of the iPhone 13 are compared with the official data from Apple. Of course, the final assessment will be made by users when they start using the devices on a daily basis. Too Remains to be seen battery capacity comparing if they have increased or not with respect to the iPhone 12.
