Apple's iPhone 15 Pro Max is the most popular iPhone the company launched this year. The device also comes with exclusive camera features and a better base storage option compared to last year's iPhone 14 Pro Max. However, the iPhone 15 Pro Max is also the most expensive but the company has justified the price tag with some pretty nifty differences. This year, Apple has increased the battery size on all four models of the iPhone 15. The iPhone 15 Pro Max features the biggest battery on any iPhone and it should have the best battery life on any smartphone.
The iPhone 15 Pro Max's 3nm chip, bigger battery, and new software features could allow the device to feature the best battery life on any smartphone
As mentioned earlier, the iPhone 15 Pro Max comes with a big 4,422mAh battery capacity that should last you more than the iPhone 14 Pro Max. However, there are a couple of additional factors that will contribute to delivering further improvements in battery life. While the iPhone 15 Pro Max can easily beat any older iPhone in terms of battery life, we suspect the smartphone houses all the latest internals to go beyond to compete against the competition.
For one, the iPhone 15 Pro Max comes with a new A17 Pro chip based on TSMC's 3nm architecture. The nature and fabrication of the chip require it to consume less power and deliver enhanced computational and graphical performance. What this means is that the iPhone 15 Pro Max could require less power from the battery and offer better performance. Ultimately, this will have a positive impact on the battery, allowing it to last longer than the iPhone 14 Pro Max and potential competitors.
Other than this, Apple has also introduced new software features in iOS 17 which will allow the battery life on iPhone 15 Pro Max to extend beyond the default output. For instance, the iPhone 15 Pro models feature three battery health settings which will maximize the longevity and runtime of the latest models. You have the option to restrict the iPhone to limit the charging to 80 percent, optimize battery charging, and none. With the help of these settings, the iPhone 15 Pro Max will not only be able to get the most out of its battery but extend its life.
Apple also gives you the option to extend the battery on your iPhone 15 Pro Max via the Low Power Mode option. You can enable the feature any time you want as it does not take into account the remaining battery on your iPhone. All of these features combined will allow the iPhone 15 Pro Max to deliver the best battery life on any smartphone.
On paper, the iPhone 15 Pro Max should deliver the best battery life on any smartphone, taking into account Apple's iOS optimizations. However, initial tests reveal that the iPhone 15 Pro Max consumes a lot of power and overheats. These initial tests reveal that the iPhone 15 Pro Max features a worse battery compared to the iPhone 14 Pro Max.
However, these are only initial tests as the devices have not reached the end user yet. Furthermore, real-world usage could be a lot different than the results derived from the tests. Additionally, Apple could fix overheating issues in future iOS 17 updates, which will have a positive impact on the battery life of the latest handset.
