iPhone 17 Pro Max price leaks: The largest battery, next-gen magSafe, and advanced cooling unveiled

Apple is soon coming up with new iPhones. Apple is preparing to redefine battery standards with the upcoming iPhone 17 Pro Max, which leaked internal design images suggest will feature the largest battery ever fitted to an iPhone—over 5,000mAh. We believe Apple is clearly aiming at rivals such as Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra by improving its endurance. The iPhone 17 Pro Max is expected to launch alongside the iPhone 17 Air and iPhone 17 Pro on September 9, 2025, with premium design upgrades, an innovative MagSafe wireless charging system, and enhanced internal cooling. Read further to know about the iPhone 17 Pro Max leaks, the redesigned battery casing and vapour-chamber cooling.

iPhone 17 Pro Max battery: The largest capacity ever in an iPhone

The most attention-grabbing leak about the iPhone 17 Pro Max battery is its enormous size, over 5,000mAh, according to computer-aided design (CAD) renders. This is an improvement on previous Apple batteries many times over and endurance is now at best-in-class Android parity at last. But, according to tech sites such as 9to5Mac, a larger battery does not necessarily mean the battery life is proportionately improved, owing to issues of software and hardware optimisation of the battery in the real world.

iPhone 17 Pro Max leaks: MagSafe, metal-covered battery, and cooling

The leaked iPhone 17 Pro Max specifications hint at a completely reworked internal design. The battery in itself also has a metal cover, a technology that was previously applied with the iPhone 16 Pro, here thought to have been refined on the Pro Max. This metal embellishment assists in heat dissipation and on a cell with a greater battery capacity is important. MagSafe coils are now re-designed to newer wireless charging and magnetic accessories.

Possibly the biggest under-the-radar innovation is space allocated for a vapour-chamber cooling system in the iPhone 17 Pro Max. It is a highly advanced heat-sinking arrangement that extends well beyond mere heat sinks and may continue to perform thermally stable enough to sustain during gaming and 4K video recordings or wireless charging. The new feature makes Apple more directly comparable to the flagship Android phones which have already been equipped with sophisticated cooling.

iPhone 17 Pro Max: Price, launch date, and series lineup
