New regulatory filings suggest Apple could significantly increase battery capacity in the iPhone 18 Pro lineup. The iPhone 18 Pro is rumored to feature a battery of up to 4,288mAh, while the iPhone 18 Pro Max could receive a much larger 5,567mAh battery, a notable upgrade over the previous generation.
The larger batteries are expected to work alongside Apple’s next-generation A-series chip and more efficient display technology, potentially delivering longer battery life. If accurate, the iPhone 18 Pro Max would offer battery capacity comparable to — and in some cases larger than — many flagship Android smartphones, marking a shift in Apple’s traditional approach of prioritizing efficiency over battery size.
