No sooner had iPhone 12 lineup made it to the market than leaks about iPhone 13 surfaced. The latest rumor focuses on battery life and it came from famous leaker Ming-Chi Kuo.
Kuo claimed that Apple might adopt a new tech that allows it to either make more compact batteries or add more capacity to the current sizes.
He said iPhone 13 would be the first to feature the battery soft board technology, which could help with cost reduction and space-saving. The tech also allows for fewer layers resulting in thinner batteries. Who knows, Apple may even make slimmer iPhones.
If Kuo’s claim is to be believed, Apple could choose either of the following two ways to make use of the battery soft board technology. One, it might make smaller iPhones with the same battery capacity. And two, iPhone 13 might have longer battery life.
iPhone 12 Mini battery life has been a subject of complaint ever since the phone made it to the market. The small overall size means the battery must be shrunken accordingly. So with the rumored new tech, those fancy the Mini may have hope that next year, we will have a just as small iPhone but with longer battery life.
The iPhone 13 will surely be a phone of many wonders so expect other leaks to show up in the next few months. At least, for now, we have reason to believe that the phone will have a good start.
