In the battery race, Apple made a surprise drive. A perpendicular line, drawing the L-shaped battery
The majority of community members have a common voice: the iPhone XS is no different from last year's iPhone X. The same way, the operation is not much improved and still ... expensive like that. But the outside evaluation has obscured the improvements Apple placed in the iPhone: a strange-looking battery.
Both the XS and the iPhone carry two batteries. Basically, they placed two pieces of rectangular lithium-ion batteries that are perpendicular to each other to create a larger, L-shaped battery that is neatly placed inside a thousand-dollar machine. Notably: smartphones today have such batteries. But inside the iPhone XS, one sees something else.

Apple introduced its L battery to the world
The most obvious question pops into anyone's head: Why does Apple do that? The simple answer: By merging the batteries, the space between the two batteries will disappear, optimizing the area inside the machine. Imagine if you pass a girl in the back, if the distance between two people is filled with something: bad is her bag, which is filled with love between two people. , you have optimized the area of the saddle. Inside the iPhone XS too.
"They're trying to squeeze things back into the battery," says Venkeat Srinivasan, deputy general manager of the Energy Storage Research Center. "You need to continually ask questions that can get rid of unnecessary parts in the battery? Can this make the other thinner, causing the whole battery to go thin?"
The phone company does have a similar problem. They all want to shrink electronic devices, increase battery life by increasing battery capacity. In this race, Apple had a surprise drive. A perpendicular line, drawn to the L-shaped battery. This design was rated Wired magazine "the most difficult ever to Apple made."
Apple has been redesigning the iPhone battery since 2012, which can be seen from the patent they registered at that time. They describe a new way to attach a lithium-ion battery of any shape to any empty space. They first applied this design in 2015 on the new MacBook that year. It's Wired speaking in 2015: this battery design will revolutionize Apple products later on.
It does not overshadow Apple's recent breakthrough design. "I know for sure that the road ahead of the smartphone will be a bigger battery on a smaller device," said Dixon. "I realized the dream was to insert the battery into the chassis." We do not currently have any battery technology breakthroughs, so we're happy with the way it fits in smart and smart.
"I am a battery research scientist and always looking for new materials to make it, but it is extremely difficult to do," Srinivasan said. "At this point in time, companies are agreeing that while the battery life is getting better, can we add more batteries to any vacant space we can find? You can fit a little more then that. "
