Apple’s iPhone XS and XS Max Smart Battery Case feature 1,369mAh battery

While Apple’s iPhone XS, XS Max and XR Smart Battery Cases were revealed yesterday, the exact size of the battery included in the new line of cases wasn’t clear.

According to The Wirecutter’s Nick Guy (@thenickguy), who already got his hands on an iPhone XS version of the Smart Battery Case, the accessory’s battery measures in at 1,369mAh. Strangely, the iPhone XS Max version of the case also features a 1,369mAh battery, despite being significantly larger.

This number is significantly less than the 2,365mAh featured in the iPhone 7’s Smart Battery Case. The older iPhone 6s Battery Case came in at 1,877mAh.

It’s still unclear what the capacity of the new iPhone XR’s Smart Battery case is, though the number is likely the same as the iPhone XS and iPhone XS Max cases.

Guy goes on to state that the iPhone XS and XS Max’s Smart Battery Case is roughly the same size as previous versions of the case. It’s possible that the inclusion of Qi wireless charging could be the reason for the new Smart Battery Case’s lower battery capacity.

It’s also still unclear if the iPhone XS Battery Case will work well with the iPhone X given the difference in speaker holes between both phones as well as slight variations in the camera bump’s location.

We’ll have more on Apple’s new iPhone XS and XR Smart Battery Cases in the coming days.
