5 Excellent Reasons to Purchase the iPhone 7 Plus Instead of the Standard iPhone 7

3. Bigger Battery = Longer Battery Life

The iPhone 7 Plus’ footprint is much larger than the standard iPhone 7’s, mostly due to the sheer disparity in display real estate. However, with a bigger footprint — and thus, more room on the inside — comes a bigger battery. How much bigger, you ask? Well, while the 4.7-incher’s battery clocks in at a 1,960 mAh — which is up from the 1,715 mAh juice box of its predecessor, the iPhone 7 Plus boasts a considerably more generous 2,910 mAh battery, up from 2,750 mAh on the iPhone 6s Plus. (Also worth considering is that Apple’s A10 Fusion SoC handles its extra power quite efficiently, so, while it varies based on individual usage patterns, the amount of time you’ll get from a full charge is also improved on the 7 and 7 Plus, respectively).
