iPhone 18 Pro's Bigger Battery Fails to Outlast Android in Longevity, EPREL Data Shows

EU EPREL data show the iPhone 18 Pro has a 4,056 mAh battery (Pro) and the Pro Max 5,391 mAh, larger than many rivals, but its long‑term health lags Android flagships: about 80% capacity after 1,000 charging cycles for the iPhone, while Galaxy S26 variants extend to roughly 1,200 cycles and the OnePlus 15 around 1,400. The Galaxy S26 Ultra hits 5,000 mAh, highlighting that longevity (cycle life) matters more than raw capacity in real use. Apple’s improvements—2‑nm A20 Pro, better thermals, vapor cooling—are promising, but in the long run Android phones still lead in endurance.

"Apple's iPhone 15 Battery Lifespan Doubled Without Needing an Update"

Apple has retested the batteries in the iPhone 15 and claims they can maintain at least 80% of their original capacity for 1,000 charging cycles, more than double the originally claimed 500 cycles. It's unclear if this change applies to every model in the iPhone 15 lineup, and the cause of the improved battery lifespan remains unknown. This development is significant for users looking to keep their iPhones for an extended period before upgrading.

"Android 14 to Offer Improved Battery Health Monitoring"

Android 14 is expected to include a native "Battery Health" feature similar to iOS, providing information on charging cycles, total capacity, and battery age right from the system UI. The feature is currently available in the latest betas for the Pixel 7 series, but its accuracy is dependent on new system or public Android APIs. Third-party apps like Batt may be affected by the new feature.
