iPhone Fold Leak Shows a Massive Battery Boost
A new leak gives us an early look at Apple’s upcoming folding phone, often called the iPhone Fold. Apple is far behind Samsung’s Galaxy Z Fold line, but it may finally join the folding phone market soon. Some reports say it could launch next year, while others point to 2027. Nothing is confirmed yet.
Bigger Battery Than Expected
A reliable Naver leaker shared that the iPhone Fold may have a battery between 5,400mAh and 5,800mAh.
This is huge compared to Samsung’s Galaxy Z Fold 7, which still uses a 4,400mAh battery.
For comparison, the iPhone 17 Pro Max has:
-
4,823mAh (physical SIM)
-
5,088mAh (eSIM version)
So the foldable iPhone could offer much longer battery life than both Samsung’s foldable and Apple’s upcoming flagship.
Battery Could Grow Even More
This leaked battery size is for an early prototype. Apple products often start with smaller test batteries and later increase capacity. For example, the iPhone Air got a bigger battery in its final version.
Because of that, the final iPhone Fold battery might even cross 6,000mAh.
Still, these details could change, so take this leak lightly.
Possible Screen Sizes
Older reports say the iPhone Fold might feature:
-
7.58-inch main display
-
5.38-inch outer display
This could make it smaller than the Galaxy Z Fold 7 but still offer a bigger battery.
Possible Downsides
The leaker warns that a larger battery may mean:
-
More weight
-
More thickness
But it’s still early, so many things can change before launch.
Stay Tuned for More Leaks
The iPhone Fold is still in development, and more details will appear in the coming months. Fans of foldable phones have a lot to look forward to, especially if Apple really delivers a powerful battery.
