Is there a claim anywhere that the yellow one specifically has longer battery life? As far as I can tell, it’s just a new color.

This random article I pulled up claims the internals are the same.

The Tech specs page doesn't differentiate the yellow model as having a different battery to the rest of the range. I was also confused by the title.

Same, can't find anything about it being different besides the color.

I wish they offered the leather case in bright colors as well. It's so much easier to find your phone when the color pops.

This seem like more of the same. https://nypost.com/2019/05/07/apples-iphone-battery-life-cla...

with mag safe and some key software changes theoretically iphones could have "removable" batteries again. Apple could create a case that allows for a 5x credit card thickness device to be slipped into it, and battery management could drain that first, as opposed to it charging your iphone.

hope they're working on something similar, if not they should get on it

It’s existed for some time. Not exactly what you describe but same concept.

I’m not buying a new iPhone unless it has a fingerprint reader and the notch is deleted. If that means my next phone is an SE, so be it.
