iPhone 17 Series Still Behind Samsung Smartphones in Battery Longevity: Report
The iPhone 17 series maintains the same 1,000-charge-cycle rating as the iPhone 16 lineup, offering high energy efficiency but no improvement in long-term battery durability. Apple lags behind Samsung in battery longevity, while the Galaxy S25 series and select devices offer up to 2,000 charge cycles. The European iPhone models differ slightly from US versions, with some featuring a physical SIM tray and slightly smaller batteries, though battery chemistry and overall performance remain unchanged.
