Apple iPhone 17 Pro Max: New Leak Confirms Major Design Upgrade
Apple iPhone 16 Pro Max: will the 17 Pro Max have a bigger battery?
A new post has appeared from a Weibo user called Instant Digital, whose track record isn't perfect but has leaked some accurate information in the past, so is worth listening to.
According to the leak, the iPhone 17 Pro Max battery could be as big as around 5,000mAh, which is bigger than the current biggest iPhone battery, in the iPhone 16 Pro Max, which measures 4,676mAh.
It's long been rumored that the iPhone 17 Pro Max will be thicker than before, and it's been hoped that some of this extra space would be used to increase the battery size, and this new post corroborates that.
The iPhone 16 Pro Max is 8.25mm thick, and it's thought its successor will be 8.725mm thick. That's less than half a millimeter more, so let's hope it stays comfortable in the hand, but even such a slender increase could have a noticeable effect on the iPhone's battery life.
Of course, each new iPhone has new features, all of which could affect battery life. On the other hand, the expected new processor for the Pro Max could combine with greater efficiencies in software which could expand battery life.
But the surest way to make a device last longer is a bigger battery, and it seems that could be on the way.
Even though users love new features, battery life stubbornly remains as about the top request. After all, even if your phone can do extraordinary new things, it's not much use if it's collapsed by lunchtime each day.
According to 9to5Mac, 'Depending on how close to 5,000 the final number ends up being, we could be looking at almost a 10% increase in capacity. It's important to note, however, that a battery's capacity doesn't have a 1:1 correlation with battery life improvements,' it says.
Meanwhile, MacRumors suggests what it might mean. 'The battery life of the iPhone 16 Pro Max is 33 hours, according to Apple. This is up from 29 hours on the iPhone 14 Pro Max, and 28 hours on the iPhone 13 Pro Max. The iPhone 12 Pro Max had a battery life of just 20 hours. With an extra 300mAh of battery capacity, the iPhone 17 Pro Max could be on course to offer around 35 hours of battery life, or perhaps even more,' it reports.

Jim Cramer on Citigroup: The Best in the Group Yet it Has the Cheapest Stock'
Citigroup Inc. (NYSE:C) is one of the 22 stocks Jim Cramer recently talked about. Noting the stock's cheap valuation, Cramer said: 'Citi announced a 7.1% dividend boost. Now it sports a 2.77% yield. Citi also stressed that they'd started a $20 billion repurchase program in January, and so far this year, they bought back $3.75 billion worth of stock. So, they still have enough ammo to shrink their share count by roughly 10%… Citigroup, the cheapest, trades at just 0.95 times tangible book value. Remember, tangible book value is what the business will be worth, again, in a liquidation scenario. So any bank that trades at a discount to book value, well, it's unbelievably cheap. CEO Jane Fraser has done a good job of turning Citi around, but clearly, she still has a long way to go. Although this company used to trade at a much lower rate to book value… Citi trades at less than 1 times tangible book value because there's still a lack of trust in the firm… A team of financial advisors huddled around a desk, discussing the best investment strategy for their client. Citigroup (NYSE:C) is a global financial services company that provides financial products, including cash management, trading, and investment banking services. While we acknowledge the potential of C as an investment, we believe certain AI stocks offer greater upside potential and carry less downside risk.

During the lightning round, a caller inquired about the company, and Cramer commented: 'I'm going to do a twofer because I'm in the mood for the $9, $10 stocks. Archer and Joby, what can I say?

Jim Cramer on Palantir: 'Can't Avoid Buying Another Data Center'
Palantir Technologies Inc. (NASDAQ:PLTR) is one of the 22 stocks Jim Cramer recently talked about. Cramer noted that the stock is once again being bought by 'meme buyers' after a day of pause, and said: 'Oh, and, and I don't want to go too far… The meme buyers, after yesterday's vacation, they're right back. They're buying Palantir, the ultimate story stock…. I expect Palantir, currently at $132 and change, to go to $200 this quarter. Can't avoid buying another data center.' A software engineer manipulating a vast network of code on virtual monitors. Palantir (NASDAQ:PLTR) develops software platforms that enable organizations to analyze complex data, support decision-making, and carry out operations. Its tools are designed for intelligence, enterprise data integration, and AI-driven workflows. On July 1, Cramer said: 'But what do we do with the very different set of winners for the first half? I want you to consider the GE Vernovas and the Howmets and the Palantirs, the stocks that are likely to finish the year dramatically higher from these exalted levels. What do you do with the stocks that have been on a run nonstop for 26 weeks, though? I think you send them on one of those two-week vacations like that Southeast Asia, Cape Town, maybe New Zealand. You pay no attention to them. Let them have a good time. Just take them off your screen, come back to them when the rotations run its course.
