Apple’s new iPhone 8 and iPhone 8 Plus have smaller batteries than the iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus, respectively, according to details discovered today on China’s official communications certification board.<\/p>\n

The TENAA listings were highlighted by mobile leaker Steve Hemmerstoffer<\/a> in a tweet, revealing that the iPhone 8 comes with a 1,821mAh battery, while the iPhone 8 Plus has a 2,675mAh battery.<\/p>\n

For those how cares about, Tenaa just confirmed #iPhone8<\/a> and #iPhone8Plus<\/a> comes with 2GB and 3GB of RAM, reveals 1821mAh and 2675mAh battery pic.twitter.com\/NnIvYkVuAk<\/a><\/p>\n

If the TENAA listing is correct, the iPhone 8 line-up therefore features smaller batteries than last year’s flagship Apple smartphones. In comparison, the iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus feature 1,960mAh and 2,900mAh batteries, respectively.<\/p>\n

Be that as it may, Apple claims its iPhone 8 devices offer “about the same<\/a>” battery life as the iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus when it comes to internet use, talk time, and audio and video playback over wireless.<\/p>\n

It looks as if Apple has been able to eke out near identical battery life out of smaller batteries in the iPhone 8 devices thanks to the company’s new high performance<\/a> A11 Bionic processor, which Apple claims is more power efficient than previous chipsets.<\/p>\n

The smaller batteries also boast support for wireless Qi charging and a new fast-charge capability<\/a>, which means the iPhone 8 and iPhone 8 Plus can be charged to 50 percent battery life in 30 minutes using Apple’s 29W, 61W, or 87W USB-C Power Adapters (sold separately and included with Apple’s latest MacBook and MacBook Pro models).<\/p>\n

In addition to the battery details, the TENAA listings also appear to confirm the iPhone 8 has 2GB of RAM and the iPhone 8 Plus packs 3GB of RAM, as previously reported<\/a>.<\/p>\n

We’ll have to wait for the inevitable device teardowns for conclusive evidence about these specs. The new smartphones will be available to pre-order from September 15<\/a>, with the devices launching on September 22. Prices start from $699 for the iPhone 8 and $799 for the iPhone 8 Plus.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
