Overview
- The iPhone 16 Pro Max is expected to have batteries with increased energy density, potentially extending battery life or reducing battery size.
- Apple plans to use stainless steel for the battery casing, enhancing durability and making battery replacements easier.
- The new battery design aims to address heat dissipation challenges, with stainless steel providing better protection despite lower heat dissipation efficiency than aluminum.
- If successful, this battery technology could be adopted across all iPhone models in 2025.
