Apple offers 7 years of of ios updates, how about a battery large enough that it is still usable after a few years of use.
I used my 8 plus (or whatever the flagship was at that time) for 8 years and for 7.5 years the battery was fine. In the last six months I had some issues when it died before the alarm went off, hence the new device. I do miss the fingerprint reader and 3D touch though.
Biggest selling point of Ultra watches and Pro phones. People are tired of constipated battery specs from Apple and releasing a phone which worsen this aspect was going to fail miserably… it doesn’t have even 1/10 of the wow factor to succeed with the trade offs it brings
Rocking my iPhone 11 Pro Max with original battery and holding out for the Fold.
Hopefully next year!
Six years is pretty impressive.
That’s what the Pro Max models are for. They have a massive battery.
