Leaks Indicate Potential Battery Increase for iPhone 18 Pro Max

Analysed 3 Jul 2026·2 sources analysed·China·Technology
Leaks Indicate Potential Battery Increase for iPhone 18 Pro MaxPreviousNext

Leaks suggest the iPhone 18 Pro Max may feature a significant battery upgrade, with capacities reportedly around 5,235mAh for the Nano SIM model and 5,425mAh for the eSIM-only version. This would surpass the iPhone 17 Pro Max and some Android competitors like the Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra. However, these claims originate from unverified and now-deleted social media posts, though they align with earlier reports from known tipsters indicating a larger battery for the upcoming model.
