iOS 13.1 code references hint at Smart Battery Case for 2019 model iPhones

Once again, a group of code strings may have hinted towards an upcoming product.

Not surprisingly, a series of code strings referencing a possible Smart Battery Case for the iPhone 11, iPhone 11 Pro, and iPhone 11 Pro Max has been discovered within the beta code for iOS 13.1. The model numbers found in code of the under-beta operating system are A2180, A2183, and A2184. 

While there’s no indication as to what models the numbers refer to, the model numbers seem remarkably close to the iPhone 11, iPhone 11 Pro, and iPhone 11 Pro Max, though which model number relates to which iPhone variant is still a mystery at this time. 

It’s unknown as to when Apple will introduce the next wave of Smart Battery Case models, although the company released previous versions of the Smart Battery Case for the iPhone XS, XS Max, and iPhone XR in January of this year, it could be quite a while before the cases are available to purchase. 

Stay tuned for additional details as they become available.
