Since we strive to *understand* Apple products, it behooves us to
understand what the facts are on the dismal Apple battery capacity.
For such an expensive phone, the iPhone 16e battery capacity is pathetic "iPhone 16e has a battery capacity of 3961 mAh" <https://9to5mac.com/2025/02/27/iphone-16e-battery-comparison/>
Yet, the iPhone 14 has an even more pathetic battery capacity of 3,279 mAh. iPhone 14: 3,279 mAh iPhone 14 Plus: 4,325 mAh iPhone 14 Pro: 3,200 mAh iPhone 14 Pro Max: 4,323 mAh
No wonder Apple is no longer allowed to sell the iPhone 14 in the EU
after this summer due to the pitiful number of lifetime charge cycles
before the battery drops below 80% (which Apple must certify to sell in
the EU).
As feeble as the iPhone 16 e battery capacity is, at least the iPhone
16e battery has a 121% bigger capacity than the lame iPhone 14 battery had.
Note: My free $200 MSRP Galaxy A32-5G from 2021 has a 5 Amp Hour battery.
Which is utterly irrelevant.
Available energy storage must be compared to power usage.
Anyone of at least average intelligence understands this.
It doesn't matter if my "bimmer" has a larger gas tank that my friend's
Honda Civic...
...if the power usage of his engine allows him to travel further.
