iPhone 8 is said to come with an L shape high capacity battery. The phone will have a longer battery life than iPhone 7 Plus and is expected to drive huge sales.

iPhone 8: L shape high capacity battery

According to the market research firm Morgan Stanley, Apple iPhone 8 will use high battery capacity as its unique selling point. This will drive more sales for the device as Apple is expecting China users to upgrade their devices when the phone launch. Research data has proven that bigger battery is the most requested feature on iPhone since old models. As a result, Apple is going to please its fans this year with a 2700mAh battery for the iPhone 8. For comparison purpose, iPhone 7 uses a 1960mAh battery while iPhone 7 Plus battery is 2900mAh.

With a smaller screen (4.7″) than the 7 Plus (5.5″), iPhone 8 will likely have longer battery life than its predecessor. In order to squeeze a battery that big into such a small device, Apple have redesign the battery, making it an L shape. Other than the new battery design, Apple will also use an OLED screen for more-power efficiency. Add that to improvements in software and more efficient chipsets, the smaller iPhone 8 should have battery life even better than the much bigger iPhone 7 Plus.

 

Besides high capacity battery, iPhone 8 will also come with a new and better version of Siri. Right now, Siri is quite lacking compared to other virtual assistants like Cortana and Google Now. So let’s hope Apple has finally figured something out to improve Siri.
