The iPhone 14 Pro and iPhone 14 Pro Max are expected to have physically larger batteries. This means that the always-on display will not affect the power consumption too much.
How will the iPhone 14 Pro Max be? Features & price & release date
How will Always on Display affect battery consumption?
iPhone 14 Pro models will have an always-on display, like the Apple Watch Series 5 and newer models. iPhone 14 Pro and iPhone 14 Pro Max will give you always access to essential information and visual elements from the redesigned iOS 16 lock screen. The Always on Display (AOD) feature will be available on 2022 iPhone Pro models thanks to the new OLED display technology with a lower refresh rate. The screen of the iPhone 13 Pro series supports variable refresh rate up to 120Hz, and the screen refresh rate can be reduced to 10Hz. In the iPhone 14 Pro series, this value will drop to 1 Hz. In this way, the phone will save battery life in always-on display mode.
In addition to the energy savings provided by the lower refresh rate, it seems that the always on display mode can be used comfortably without worrying about battery consumption, thanks to the larger capacity battery. Of course, the A16 Bionic chip will also have an impact on power efficiency.
It will be exclusive to iPhone 14 Pro
The always-on display feature is expected to remain exclusive to the iPhone 14 Pro; As some users hope, it is not expected to come to iPhone 13 Pro models with a software update.
When will the iPhone 14 Pro be introduced?
Apple will introduce the iPhone 14 series at its event on September 7. The 6.1-inch iPhone 14, 6.7-inch iPhone 14 Plus, 6.1-inch iPhone 14 Pro, and 6.7-inch iPhone 14 Pro Max will be among the 2022 iPhones. The iPhone 13 mini will also be the last model in the iPhone mini series.
