One of our favorite new features included with the iOS 26 developer beta is Apple’s new “adaptive power” mode aimed at increasing the battery life of the best iPhones. Unfortunately, it seems that you will need the iPhone 15 Pro model or new to enjoy the benefits.
In iOS 26 developer beta, Apple describes adaptive power mode for your iPhone as a “adjustment to your battery life to enhance your battery life”, such as reducing screen brightness and “allowing some activities to take a little more time.” When the layout is enabled, your phone will automatically trim the use of its energy to continue for longer between charges.
The adaptive power mode is different from the current low -power mode of the iPhone, which limits the background activities and automatically kicked when your battery reaches 20 %.

Among the new setting and rumors that Apple will employ a new silicon carbon battery to increase the battery density by maximum 15 %, Apple can squeeze the impressive longer battery life in the Slim Chase of the iPhone 17 Air.
