New Leaked Pictures Apparently Show iPhone 7 7.04 Battery

[Maura]

MacRumors reports that new photos have appeared online that are purported to be of a battery for the forthcoming iPhone 7. The images, which were originally published by Chinese site Digi.tech.qq.com, show a battery with a capacity of 7.04 watt-hours, which is almost the same as that of the iPhone 6 (7.01 watt-hours) and a little more than that of the iPhone 6s (6.61 watt-hours).

Also reporting on the story, AppleInsider said that the original report also said, somewhat bizarrely, that the iPhone 7 will have a ceramic body. This would be a huge change for Apple, with previous iPhones usually being made out of metal, glass and plastic.

Other ceramic phones include HTC’s 2012 One S, which was claimed to be prone to chipping, hence HTC not using that material after that one attempt.

Apple has also previously filed patents for ceramic iPhones, so the rumour is possibly not quite as outlandish as it might initially appear.

Apple needs to make a HC (high capacity) version. Something that takes the battery up to 14 watt hour battery. Yep, the iPhone would be thicker, but I bet it would be the hottest selling iPhone model.

Cell phone have gotten thin enough, some say too thin. I don't understand who Apple hasn't addressed most of every iPhone owner complaint... "The dam battery doesn't last long enough"

Rather than make the iPhone 1-2 mm thicker, Apple tries to make the battery last longer by better processors. This only goes so far as the display drain much of the battery.

The aluminum alloy used on the 6(s) is some pretty strong metal. Bend gate was an engineering screwup, where areas that needed extra support didn't get them. It would have probably taken 1 gram more metal to properly enforce the middle of the chassis.
