  "account": "When iPhone Duo pre-orders launched, Apple released an EU regulatory document that disclosed the exact battery capacity for the device: 4883mAh. This capacity positions iPhone Duo in the high-end range of iPhone batteries, though it is not the highest. The device boasts dual battery cells, with one cell measuring 2962mAh and the other 1921mAh, resulting in the total 4883mAh capacity. This places iPhone Duo approximately between the iPhone 18 Pro and iPhone 18 Pro Max, the latter of which boasts a 5567mAh battery. When compared to the rest of the recent iPhone lineup (including eSIM versions), which generally have larger battery cells than physical SIM versions, iPhone Duo ranks among the larger battery capacities seen in iPhones. In fact, iPhone Duo is only surpassed by the two most recent Pro Max models. While iPhone Duo has the largest physical battery among iPhones, it's important to note that frequent use of the larger inside display may result in less battery life overall.",
