Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:AAPL) may give the iPhone 6 a battery boost that exceeds customer expectations. This report comes from Sung Chang Xu, a news chief analyst for ESM-China. He believes the company will release the 4.7 inch iPhone 6 model with 2,100mAh capacity battery.
Last month brought a rumor the iPhone 6 would feature a 1,810mAh battery. This particular rumor was derived from leaked photos posted on French tech website Nowhereelse.fr.
A better battery would be welcomed by Apple fans. However, a larger battery doesn't exactly guarantee better battery life. The next generation Apple smartphone will feature a larger screen that measures 4.7 inches and an improved processor, both of which would need a larger battery to function.
Apple's biggest competitor Samsung (OTC:SSNLF) already dominates the phablet market with larger phones. Apple so far has been hesitant of releasing a larger smartphone but that may change this year Samsung has also recently taken digs at its top rival over battery issues claiming iPhone owners were "wall-huggers" because they are always forced to look for power outlets.
It's reported Apple will unveil their next phone on September 9th during a media event for the press. In the meantime, we can expect more rumors but nothing will be confirmed until it comes straight from the source. iOS 8 was already introduced two months ago during Apple's annual Worldwide Developer Conference.
