KGI Securities's Ming-Chi Kuo analyst predicts that the upcoming iPhone 8 can come with the same battery capacity that has an 5.5-inch LCD model but the battery will be much smaller in size according to a MacRumors publication .
According to Ming-Chi Kuo, the iPhone 8 may have about the same battery capacity as the 5,5-inch iPhone 6s Plus, but the battery size will be the same as the uses η Apple on the 4,7-inch models. The iPhone 6s Plus has a 5,5-inch screen and a 2.750mAh battery, while the 5,5-inch iPhone 7 Plus has a 2.900mAh battery.
Ming-Chi Kuo states: “As a new battery technology, it is not very likely that we will see major breakthroughs in the next 3-5 years. THE region of mainboard it can only be reduced by compressing the SLP, which will make room for a larger battery and extended usage time.
Thanks to SLP compression, we expect the iPhone OLED to have similar battery dimensions to a 4,7-inch iPhone LCD, and to have comparable battery capacity to a 5,5-inch LCD iPhone. ”
Kuo also reports that Apple will use a more expensive one board design, also known as PCB (SLP) mainboard. This will create extra space inside the device to accommodate a larger battery.
This particular design of the mainboard could result in up to 80% higher production costs. So the rumors who want the new device to have a value greater than $ 1.000 appear to be valid.
