Apple Leak Reveals Massive iPhone 7 Upgrade

How does Apple head off accusations that the iPhone 7 will look dull and alienate people? Continuing his prolific run, the ever reliable Steve Hemmerstoffer (aka @OnLeaks) of Nowhereelse.fr took to Twitter last night to announce a source close to him has revealed the iPhone 7 will receive the largest iPhone battery upgrade in the line’s history. Hemmerstoffer says the iPhone 7’s battery capacity will jump over 14% compared to the iPhone 6S, an increase from 1715 mAh to 1960 mAh in real terms. To put this in perspective, the largest battery increase Apple has ever made was from the iPhone 5S to iPhone 6 (250 mAh) but this was to accommodate the jump from a 4-inch to 4.7-inch display so didn’t equate to any battery gain in practice.
