An alleged iPhone 14 battery specs leak claims to have some minor improvements to the four rumored upcoming models, as well as a surprising downgrade.
The claimed capacity for the batteries of the upcoming four iPhones comes from a screenshot shared by Weibo Duanrui (Opens in new tab) And ShrimpApplePro (Opens in new tab), two Twitter leakers. However, both leakers express doubts about the figures, so don’t be surprised if we hear different numbers in future leaks.
We’ve put the data from this source along with the capabilities of similar iPhone 13 models in the table below, so that we can compare the claimed changes.
pattern | Battery Capacity (mAh) |
iphone 14 | 3,279* |
iphone 13 | 3,240 |
iphone 14 pro | 3,200* |
iphone 13 pro | 3,095 |
iphone 14 pro max | 4,323* |
iphone 14 max | 4,325* |
iphone 13 pro max | 4,352 |

These purported new capabilities are a 1% increase for the iPhone 14 compared to the iPhone 13, a 3% increase for the iPhone 14 Pro compared to the iPhone 13, and a 1% decrease for the iPhone 14 Pro Max compared to the iPhone 13. work as. Pro Max. The iPhone 14 Max is the rumored replacement for the iPhone 13 Mini, but since they’re vastly different sizes (6.7 inches versus 5.4 inches), there’s no direct comparison of the draws.
According to these specs, the iPhone 14 has a slightly larger battery than the iPhone 14 Pro, despite the fact that these phones should have the same 6.1-inch body. The same was the case with the iPhone 13 and iPhone 13 Pro, perhaps a concession to the Pro model’s larger camera block with an additional telephoto camera.
The new iPhone 14 Max model will apparently have the largest-capacity battery, but only a smaller amount than the iPhone 14 Pro Max. This model may result in the best battery life out of any iPhone 14 model, but the battery savings enabled by the ProMotion adaptive display refresh rate still means the iPhone 14 Pro Max is the winner.
Coming to the Pro Max model, the iPhone 13 Pro Max packs a 4,352 mAh battery, so the rumored 14 Pro Max will actually drop by 29 mAh. It’s strange to see Apple slashing capacity like this, but that shouldn’t be enough to ruin its status as one of the top performers in our best phone battery life rankings. As well as still having a fairly large battery, a more rumored efficient A16 chipset (something non-Pro models can’t find) and the adaptive refresh rate we’ve already mentioned, help give the iPhone 14 Pro Max excellent longevity. can help.
We’ll see the debut of new iPhones in the fall, as usual, so it’s probably safe to mark our calendars for mid-September. Make sure you check our iPhone 14 and iPhone 14 Pro Hub regularly for the latest rumors on what upgrades to expect before committing.
