Even when flat, your iPhone has a small reserve of energy to help you out

Damn, no more battery. It’s a catastrophe ! A flat iPhone is all paraphernalia that disappears. No more camera, GPS, phone, or even a transport card, or even keys. Unless … For a few generations, the iPhone has incorporated a “power reserve” which maintains a handful of functions when the battery is empty. Here’s how this little-known reserve can help you out.

Even with an empty battery, this iPhone 13 mini can still be used for some functions.

A reserve from the iPhone XS / XR

Power reserve first appeared on the iPhone XS and XR released in 2018 and has been built into every model ever since, including the 2nd generation iPhone SE. All the following ranges therefore benefit from it:

  • iPhone XS
  • iPhone XR
  • iPhone SE 2nd generation
  • iPhone 11
  • iPhone 12
  • iPhone 13

Apple added this novelty in a very discreet way, hardly communicating about it at the beginning. It was necessary to go to the technical sheet iPhone XS / XR to see the mention “Express cards with energy reserve” without further information.
