Recent leaks suggest that the iPhone 17 Pro Max will come equipped with the largest battery ever seen in an iPhone. According to the reliable Weibo leaker known as “Instant Digital,” the upcoming model will feature a battery capacity of approximately 5,000mAh. In a recent post, the leaker provided a comparative look at the battery capacities of previous iPhone models, including:
– iPhone 11 Pro Max: 3,969mAh
– iPhone 12 Pro Max: 3,687mAh
– iPhone 13 Pro Max: 4,352mAh
– iPhone 14 Pro Max: 4,323mAh
– iPhone 15 Pro Max: 4,422mAh
– iPhone 16 Pro Max: 4,676mAh
– iPhone 17 Pro Max: ~5,000mAh
Apple reports that the iPhone 16 Pro Max offers up to 33 hours of battery life, an improvement over the 29 hours of the iPhone 14 Pro Max and 28 hours of the iPhone 13 Pro Max.
Given the increase in capacity by an additional 300mAh, the iPhone 17 Pro Max could potentially deliver around 35 hours of battery life, bolstered by efficiency enhancements from the new A19 Pro chipset and Qualcomm’s Snapdragon X80 modem. While Instant Digital’s track record for Apple rumors is mixed, the leaker has made accurately timed predictions, including details about the introduction of new color options and specifications for previous models. This gives some credibility to their claims regarding the iPhone 17 Pro Max’s battery capacity.
As the release date for Apple’s iPhone 17 series approaches in September 2025, anticipation continues to grow with numerous speculations surrounding the devices’ features and design changes.
