The iPhone 6s Has a Smaller Battery Than the iPhone 6!

Posted September 10, 2015 at 1:53pm by iClarified
As previously rumored, the iPhone 6s has a smaller batter than the iPhone 6.

Confirmation of the smaller battery size comes from the iPhone 6s Introduction Video. In the video we can clearly see the battery marked with a capacity of 1715mAh. That's down from the iPhone 6 at 1810mAH.

Despite having a smaller battery, Apple hasn't changed it's specifications for battery life, meaning the company has managed to reduce power consumption thanks to its new A9 processor and iOS 9 operating system.


Well let you know how the battery life of the iPhone 6s compares to the iPhone 6 in real life, as soon as we can. Please follow iClarified on Twitter, Facebook, or RSS for updates.

No small battery can drain when I'm there for those empty ones. Use me and I will get you battery charge any day without the need to plug into a wall outlet. N I seriously.

AMPY is a bad product.A waste of money. Use it as firewood. It works better that way.

The fact that you have to troll posts about battery life seems too much - been very long since you started but not getting anywhere/selling anything...? Get the message? Nudge nudge wink wink!!

If you're talking to me, trolling how? Why do you think I am mentioning myself as a portable charger? Do you not know how far I have gotten in popular gadgets. Hell I was one of the biggest inventions. I was known for being a small and portable solution.

We want longer battery life... Making the phone more energy efficient and lowering the size of the battery defeats the purpose.

Exactly.

Apple wants you to enable Low Power mode by default so this smaller capacity battery will last longer.

It's not the size that counts but how you use it.

Here's some, I am a charger that doesn't use wall outlets, I am one that creates charge power by movement, the best thing though is how portable I can be to be worn like a watch. Learn more about me on kickstarter.

The battery life is great actually. My iPhone 6 plus lasts me all day and I use it a lot.

I was really hoping for that. Maybe on the next hardware update. A CNET author who's name I forgot wrote that not many people wanted a larger battery. Are you kidding me? He certainly is a sell out. They used to be so reputable.

I'm sorry but this is the stupidest thing ever. Why couldn't they keep the same damn size on he battery and improve battery life? If the A9 processor uses less battery then that would've been a noticeable difference. I'm not sure what to make of it now. I'm falling out of love with apple even though nothing else catches my attention yet. Bad, bad move. Not getting this one at all then.

What's stupid is thatpeople don't realize the battery benefits iOS 9 is supporting. Seriously people, think about that for a minute! Smaller battery to make room for more iPhone parts that support the new features the iPhone is getting beside iOS 9 stuff. What choice does apple have for that matter?

Making the phone a little thicker for starter. No really asked for it to be thinner. They wanted a bigger screen, faster always of course and longer lasting battery. Most people won't mind a slightly heavier and thicker phone. Not the size of a brick but just enough to increase the battery life. I don't know it's apple. Surprise us and make it work. Apple for is used to making things happen. They can certainly make a longer lasting battery without compromising anything else. So yeah. Make it work apple. You can do it. Don't let us down.

They will. Slightly smaller battery working with efficient iOS 9. With me, it can be beyond perfect and by that, I power devices by movement and I am a portable charger that can be worn.

Apple are just messes up! They made a slightly bigger phone, with a smaller battery! It doesn't matter if it's not bigger than 1810mAh, but if it's gone smaller than that it makes it an issue! I'd rather have the same battery than a smaller one?! How does Samsung Manage to fit a battery nearly 1000mAh bigger in their phones when their phones are slightly thinner. This takes the p*ss..
