- The battery in a smartphone just like the heart of our body which is responsible for powering the phone. The quality of a battery can affect the device performance, battery lifetime and user experience. This year, Apple released 3 new iPhones, the iPhone XS, XS Max, and XR. Let's compare the difference of the batteries between the 3 new iPhones' and iPhone X's.
Battery Shape
Seeing the first sight of these batteries, we found that the biggest difference between them is the shape of the battery. Apple first uses the L-shaped battery to the iPhone X. The L-shaped battery can reasonably use the internal space of the iPhone, increasing the capacity of the battery. It is worth noting that the iPhone X and XS Max L-shaped battery is a combination of two batteries, while the iPhone XS battery is a complete battery.
| Model | Shape | quantity |
| iPhone X | L | 2 |
| iPhone XS | L | 2 |
| iPhone XS Max | L | 1 |
| iPhone XR | Straight | 1 |
Battery Capacity
Because of these iPhones have different body sizes, the batteries size are different which affects the battery capacity. iPhone battery capacity: iPhone XS < iPhone X < iPhone XR < iPhone XS Max. Although the iPhone XS and iPhone X have the same body size: 143.6 mm*70.9 mm*7.7 mm, but the iPhone XS battery capacity is slightly smaller than the iPhone X.
| Model | Capacity |
| iPhone X | 2716 mAh |
| iPhone XS | 2658 mAh |
| iPhone XS Max | 3174 mAh |
| iPhone XR | 2942 mAh |
Battery Life
The mobile phone is already the most commonly used items in our lives, so the iPhone battery life is very important. Here we list the usage times of the iPhone X, XS, XS Max and XR for different projects.
| Model | Talk time (hours) | Internet use (hours) | Video (hours) | Audio (hours) |
| iPhone X | 21 | 12 | 13 | 60 |
| iPhone XS | 20 | 12 | 14 | 60 |
| iPhone XS Max | 25 | 13 | 15 | 65 |
| iPhone XR | 25 | 15 | 16 | 65 |
From this table, we can see that iPhone XR has the longest battery life, followed by iPhone XS Max, and iPhone X has a similar battery life as iPhone XS.
