Apple: Cheaper battery life to reduce iPhone 5G costs

The increased cost of making 5G iPhones by Apple is estimated to lead to cuts in other areas, such as battery life. According to some information that has been released online, Apple will simplify battery technology with a view to lower costs.

Estimates speak of using fewer layers of material in the batteries of the upcoming iPhone with 5G capabilities so that in that part there is a cost reduction of 30 to 40%. At the same time, as already mentioned, simple models of the iPhone family will probably have sub-6GHz to keep the price low.

The Pro and Pro Max models will have mmWave and will support the higher speeds that the new technology has to offer. It remains to be seen now at what initial price the new models will be available with their launch. In the matter of battery, however, the information wants the batteries not to fall short in performance, although some moves have been made to reduce costs in that area.
