iPhone Duo battery is officially 4,883mAh: bigger than the 18 Pro and Fold8, smaller than the 18 Pro Max, with the full numbers from the EU product sheet

Apple never publishes battery capacities, but the EU Product Information Sheet for model A3720 does: 4,883mAh in two cells (2,962 + 1,921).

The sheet adds 51h30m endurance per charge, at least 1,000 cycles, repairability class C and 5 years of updates.
