Checkpoint reached—battery released!

Though the 5c is essentially a repackaged iPhone 5 (in colored plastic, in case that hadn't been made apparent, yet), the battery has been beefed up a bit, clocking in at 3.8 V—5.73 Wh—1510 mAh, compared to the 3.8 V—5.45 Wh—1440 mAh battery of the iPhone 5.

Hopefully, this will address some issues with battery life brought about by the iOS 7 update.

Larger battery…Hmmm, could the "c" stand for battery "capacity?" It's a theory; it's probably wrong.
