Phone makers, please listen to this message:
DO NOT MAKE THE BATTERIES SMALLER.
Keep them the current size and just triple the potential storage please!
I don't wan't a teeny-tiny battery to make space for 24-core CPU and a GTX Titan in my phone. I won't more than a day of heavy use out a phone without having to carry a huge phone around (a la Galaxy Note, it's just to big for me)
I will start a petition for this to be discussed in the house of commons if you ignore my request! :P
You will be ignored until Apple decide to increase battery life. Its a sad but true fact that innovation in phones seems to come everywhere except for the battery and it seems Apple will have to do it before people follow suit. Just need somebody to work a normal day away from their desk in the design office and they will realise current battery life is woeful!
I don't think Apple are the only headliners in the technology world.
Personally I'd like to see the carbon nanotube batteries that were being heralded as the next generation in battery technology not too long ago. Sadly that seems to have disappeared.
Yup, Apple the true innovators....cough lol coughQuote:

And I'd sign that petition in a heartbeat. Trouble is that instead of that mega cpu and/or gpu the "fashion victim" mentality will want to use the increase in energy density to deliver an even thinner phone rather than something useful like day-long running. It's one of the reasons I defected from Samsung to LG - and now I get three days between charges on my usual light use.Quote:

Seconded! :)Quote:

I do hope this "thinnest device ever, who cares about the battery life!" fad dies off sometime soon...

Absolutely... It seems that we never get better battery life. Thats teh reason I'm sticking with my LG G2, the battery life is fantastic :-)Quote:

lol. For the everyday consumer, of course it is. OOOOH NEW SHINY BUTTONS. :|Quote:
