Different physical battery size in F5 vs F5 WIFI?

Hi,

I didn't find it anywhere, is there a difference in battery capacity between Fenix 5 and Fenix 5 sapphire? I would expect a bit smaller battery in sapphire version, because it has a WIFI module which can bite some space. Can I find exact mAh capacity for both models?

Thank you!

WiFi chip is a small chip on the motherboard and shares the same antenna with Bluetooth/ANT. So it may nat have a big effect in the battery size. But there may be other differences, we can't be sure without seeing a disassembly. But they may have the same battery if their stated battery life is the same.

Wifi likely has no impact on battery. It's not on all the time - only when you manually connect, or right after you save an activity with auto upload turned on.
