All battery claims depend on network configuration and many other factors; actual results will vary. Battery has limited recharge cycles and may eventually need to be replaced. Battery life and charge cycles vary by use and settings. See apple.com/uk/batteries and apple.com/uk/iphone/battery.html for more information. Testing conducted by Apple in January 2026 using pre-production iPhone 17e units and software, and USB‑C Charge Cable with Apple 20W USB‑C Power Adapter (Model A2305). Fast‑charge testing conducted with drained iPhone units. Times measured from the appearance of the Apple logo as the unit started up.
