Apple’s EU energy label lists 4,883mAh battery for iPhone Duo
Key points
- Apple's EU energy label for the iPhone Duo lists a 4,883mAh lithium-ion battery.
- The battery is split into two cells instead of one pack.
- The label rates battery endurance at 51 hours and 30 minutes per cycle.
- The battery is rated to hold its performance for at least 1,000 charge cycles under default conditions.
- The iPhone Duo went up for pre-order last week. Sales and deliveries start later this week.
Summary
(AI)
This is a confirmed figure, not a leak. Apple published the numbers itself on the EU energy label, which Apple has to publish before the phone goes on sale. PhoneArena says Apple was forced to show the capacity. Before this, no official battery number had been released for the foldable.
PhoneArena says the capacity is higher than originally thought, and Absolute Geeks says it is bigger than many expected. The coverage does not say what the earlier estimates were. The two-cell design is described as one of the compromises of folding hardware. The 1,000-cycle rating is framed as new ground for iPhone batteries, and Android Authority says it is good news for Galaxy Z Fold 8 and other Android rivals.
