Few things can be blamed on the iPhone, but there is one that always weighs down Apple’s smartphone with more or less reason: its autonomy. And although in Cupertino they have always tried to fix it with bigger batteries (current iPhones are thicker and heavier than those of a few years ago), the fact is that the battery is still the Achilles heel of iPhones (and Apple Watch too).
Well, it seems that Apple has found a solution that will make the autonomy of the next iPhone 15 in all its variants it is bigger: a new type of battery built with an unprecedented system so far, and which gives it greater capacity and less heating when charging. We will see.
This week leaked via Twitter that the new iPhones of this year will incorporate a battery built with a new system unprecedented until now, with which both its capacity will be extended, as well as its lower heating when charging.
A change in battery construction
And this is possible thanks to a new manufacturing system of said batteries. Until now, the batteries were made of different layers that were rolled up, thus forming a set of “rolls” connected in series. This new system consists of hosting these same layers in a different way.

Instead of being rolled up to form different cylinders, they flatten out over the entire surface of the battery. apiladas and zigzags. In this way, since there is no empty space between the cylinders as in the conventional system, you can have more surface of layers applied in the same space, with which you obviously gain capacity.
And another advantage of this layered lamination system is that the heat generated by its recharging is better distributed over the entire surface of the battery, increase its dissipation faster.
If to all this we add a new option of 40W fast charge thanks to the USB-C port, then, we find very interesting new improvements in terms of energy management in the new iPhones that we will see in September.
