The 5.5" iPhone 6 Air battery leaks on video, flaunting generous capacity

The 5.5" iPhone won't be for the faint of heart Apple fans, as it will allegedly usher the Cupertino team in the era of giant phablet-type phones, considering that it also has to now fit Apple's venerable Touch ID fingerprint scanner below the display, so the bezel situation is unlikely to be Mate 7-like.

What we are fairly certain, though, is that the iPhone 6+ or iPhone Air, or whatever Apple decides to name it, will be no less premium in terms of design than the 4.7" iPhone 6, and will sport well-crafted thin aluminum chassis, housing some rapid fire silicon inside. With a grand high-res screen comes the inevitable grand drain on the battery, though, that's why we are content to see that the battery pack will be no slouch, if the video below turns out to be credible. It shows a purported iPhone 6+ or Air battery, with a capacity of 2915 mAh, which is close enough to the usual flagship phablet threshold of 3000 mAh, and, knowing Apple's hardware/software synergy, should be able to power the 5.5-incher through the day, and then some.
