Summary

  • Macworld found iOS 27 beta 4 code strings for a multi-battery iPhone, including battery-status and battery-health messages written in the plural.
  • A regulatory filing points to two cells rated at 1,921mAh and 2,962mAh, giving the device a combined 4,883mAh capacity.
  • The code backs an earlier leak from Weibo account Digital Chat Station that Apple’s upcoming iPhone Ultra will use two internal batteries.
  • That setup is common in foldables but would be a first for the iPhone, fitting earlier iOS 27 clues pointing to a foldable, multi-display Ultra model expected in early September.
