Earlier, news broke that the upcoming iPhone 13‘s will ship with improved fast charging technology. Reports indicated that the series will support 25W fast charging technology. Now, in addition to the previous leak, we’ve another battery-related leak. This time it’s about the increased battery size and smaller components in the upcoming iPhones.
According to Digitimes, Apple will equip bigger batteries for upcoming iPhones. That said, this would only happen after getting some extra space to place the bigger battery cell. It is said that Apple will use smaller components in order to save space for this bigger battery.
Reportedly, Apple has also increased the adoption of IPD(Integrated Passive Devices) for the peripherals in the upcoming phones. Again, these peripherals would be smaller in size.
With a drastic increase in the adoption of IPDs, the chip manufacturing partners like TSMC and Amkor are slated to get solid business opportunities. Not just iPhones, even iPads, and MacBooks will get smaller components.
Additionally, Apple has also approved TSMC’s 6th generation chips for mass production. These chips will be used in upcoming phones.
Moreover, a previous leak revealed that the Apple iPhone 13 series will be thicker in size as compared to the current iPhone 12 series. Although the leak from Digitimes didn’t really reveal if this year’s iPhone 13 series will equip these chips. But, we can at least expect future iPhones to get a big battery and smaller components.
