Apple Smart Battery Inspection Reveals Battery, not a Lot of Smarts

Description

Earlier this month, Apple shocked consumers by releasing their very own battery case for the iPhone 6 and 6s. They called the new product the Smart Battery… but is it really all that smart? The investigative crew at iFixit decided to find out. Peeling away the microfiber lining, they discovered a small, aluminum plate that sits atop the battery. With the liner and plate removed, iFixit got to the heart of Apple’s supposedly innovative case: an 1877mAh lithium battery. While these touches will protect both the case and phone battery, this little detail and the included antenna are not enough to bring this battery case above the level of the competition.

  • Apple's New iPhone 6 Smart Battery Case Lasts Longer - But At What Cost?

    Extending battery life has always been an issue for iPhone users. So Apple has figured out a way to placate those infuriated by quick dying devices. The tech giant released the Smart Battery Case, which offers an extra 25 hours of talk time between charges. This also shakes out to an extra 20 hours of video playback and 18 extra hours of internet usage. This solves the one major issue with phones battery, but does it create another? The new case is simply a rectangular battery added to the back of a regular silicon case. The whole apparatus is bulky and clunky, and comes with a 100 dollar price tag. So is it really even worth it?

  • Leaked iPhone 6S Photo Suggests Longer Battery Life

    With the debut of the next-generation iPhone likely three months away — a new one traditionally launches each September — the Apple rumor mill is heating up right on schedule. Allegedly leaked photos of Apple's upcoming iPhone, presumed to be called the iPhone 6S, reveal an exterior casing that looks nearly identical to the iPhone 6 but comes with some internal updates. The details come from tech site 9to5Mac, which has a solid track record of correctly identifying leaks ahead of an Apple launch. Despite initial rumors that the next-generation 4.7-inch iPhone could be even slimmer than the iPhone 6, the leaked photos show no changes to the casing. If the photos are legit, any differences in thickness, length or width are too small to notice. This doesn't come as a huge surprise, considering the iPhone is on an "S" cycle this year, which traditionally has fewer design changes and more internal upgrades.
