Netizen question: Why is Apple's iPhone 15 still charging at 20W?

From the disassembly diagram of the iPhone, it can be seen that the internal space of the iPhone is filled with precision components, and there is no waste of space, which means that Apple is a particularly skilled company in budgeting. At the same time, Apple is particularly particular about core processors, and the performance of the iPhone is basically ahead of Android phones in the same period. However, the iPhone, which focuses on component performance experience, still insists on a 60Hz refresh rate and 20/30W charging. This means that Apple's analysis of the consumer market suggests that such configurations will not affect iPhone sales performance.

According to the exposed information, the iPhone 15 has a built-in 3349mAh battery, the iPhone 15Plus has a built-in 4383mAh battery, the iPhone 15Pro has a built-in 3274mAh battery, and the iPhone 15ProMax has a built-in 4422mAh battery. The battery capacity of the four new models has slightly increased compared to the previous generation, and with the support of the 3nm chip A17Pro, the theoretical battery life will be improved. However, the official information provided by Apple is that the iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 14 Pro have the same battery life, which means that Apple is quite confident in the battery life of recent generations of iPhones.

In fact, since the iPhone 13 series, the endurance of Apple's mobile phones has been significantly improved. The most impressive thing is that at that time, the iPhone 13 ProMax ranked first in terms of endurance, and dominated the list for a long time. It is true that the roast received by the iPhone in terms of endurance have gradually decreased in the past two years, even the sales volume of the rechargeable bank market has declined sharply.

From Apple's official data, it can be seen that with continuous video playback, the iPhone 15 can support up to 20 hours, the iPhone 15Pro can support up to 23 hours, and the iPhone 15ProMax can support up to 29 hours. It is worth noting that the highly praised iPhone 8Plus in the past only supports up to 14 hours of battery life. This set of data intuitively shows that the iPhone 15ProMax has more than twice the battery life of the 8Plus.

That is to say, the battery life of the iPhone 15 series is now sufficient for most users to use for a day. In this case, the high or low charging efficiency is no longer particularly important. Users can easily charge after work and go home. In the Apple 20W fast charging mode, the iPhone 15 series can charge half of its battery in about 30 minutes, and the charging experience can already meet the requirements of most users, This is also the main reason why iPhone charging efficiency is low, but users generally do not care.

At present, the shortcomings that make users more concerned are mainly focused on the 60Hz refresh rate of the standard iPhone 15, the lack of 128GB of starting memory, and the lack of telephoto function. Equipped with a 120Hz refresh rate, 256GB starting memory, and telephoto lens is not difficult for Apple, but Apple still provides such outdated configurations on a phone starting at 5999 yuan, which is a bit unreasonable.
