The iPhone 12 lineup isn't necessarily a slouch when it comes to battery capacity, or life. Still, there's some room for improvement. The iPhone 13 series may do just that.

According to reliable leaker L0vetodream, who posted a photo with some information on Twitter recently, Apple is going to give a significant uptick in battery capacity to its next iPhone lineup. At its peak, the biggest increase will see up to 18% improvement to capacity for the larger iPhone. Meanwhile, even the smallest smartphone is reportedly getting bigger.

Walletigious disables the MagSafe wallet animation on pwned iPhone 12 devices

MagSafe is a relatively new feature that ships with the iPhone 12 lineup, and it lets users connect wireless chargers and other accessories such as cases, wallets, and battery packs to their handset with the satisfying click that comes with magnetic attraction.

In many instances, connecting first-party and other licensed MagSafe accessories to a supported iPhone results in an aesthetically pleasing animation. Even Apple’s MagSafe wallets provides an animation of their own that’s distinguished from the one you see when connecting to a MagSafe charger.

Want a second carrier for your iPhone that won’t break the bank? Try Visible by Verizon Wireless

It wasn’t long ago that I shared my personal experience with using the Google Fi cellular service as a secondary carrier on my iPhone. But my curiosity pertaining to a dual carrier setup on my iPhone led to me to research several other Mobile Virtual Network Operators (MVNOs), and you can probably take a few accurate guesses as to where that rabbit hole took me.

Upon being blown away by Google Fi’s cellular reception and data speeds, I decided to drop AT&T as my primary carrier and switch over to T-Mobile. To those asking why – the T-Mobile network powers Google Fi in my region, and the un-carrier provided an enticing offer after announcing its new truly unlimited Magenta MAX plan earlier this year for a fraction of what I was paying AT&T.
