10,000 mAh battery needs to be standard in smart phones

[rrballer11]

I agree. Battery technology needs to advance.

I understand what the OP means. I find that the Note 3 with stock battery is 1) too thin, I do feel like it's going to flip out of my hands. I have MS and need to feel the heft of the device. 2) i have the Zerolemon 10,000 and it does give a feeling of security knowing that i have a connection. (Like now, with the power out, I'm using my 6400, when that runs out, I'll pop in the Zerolemon.) i do use the Anker 6400 as my DD, mainly because it fits in my clutch and the Zerolemon does not.

I wonder whether it's possible to view power demand/management from a different perspective?

Why not create a device that has a solar panel beneath the display (like some watches have), or on the reverse that can keep the battery topped up continually? I'd favour this over a bigger phone needed to hold a bigger battery...

 

[George Jenkinson]

Whilst I know what you mean, the argument is a little bit like saying car fuel tanks only need to be big enough to last the majority of people's average daily mileage. The car can be topped up on the way home - after all why carry the extra fuel around which decreases the efficiency of the car?

There's a happy medium to strike and I think rather than bigger batteries manufacturers need to look at power management and demand along with a say, a built in solar panel to keep it charging throughout the day...

Watches have those because they need very little power. With a phone, if the entire back was a solar panel, it would take at least a day of not being used to charge it up.
Actually, now that I think about it... A day beats not at all.

I don't get the whole argument in phones lasting days on a single charge.

With 2k screens becoming the norm I do believe a 4000mah battery would suffice.

This would get any heavy user through a whole day, then charge when asleep, wake up and your good to go again.

Why is it an issue to some to charge while sleeping?

Well while I agree we won't see the 10k for awhile in a phone due to size the OP does have a point.

Heavy user depends on your definition of heavy user... Someone using their phone alot with screen on? Or someone watching movies? I know if I turn my tether on for my 1 Co worker.. And watch movies steaming on LTE it can drop my Note in about 2 hours or so..... So It really depends.

Again I agree that isn't the norm but some could benefit from bigger batteries... It's just the majority of users are fine with the ones we have now... So due to that and size the batteries won't be bigger in smartphones till battery technology gets better. Also I agree.. I don't mind plugging in and going to sleep .

Sounds brilliant on first sight. But would require me to leave my phone out in the open, e.g. on a table, at all times. That's an open invitation to hit-and-run phone snatchers which few people can (or want to) successfully chase. My phone is much safer in my pocket, out of sight.
So on second thoughts: no, that's not a solution that would work for me.

Looks like these guys from UC Riverside have discovered a way to triple Li-Ion batteries' charge so maybe 10,000 mAH is not so far off after all! Let's keep our fingers crossed.

4000 mah cell will not get you through the whole day on a 2K phone. It doesn't do it on a HD phone today.

3,000 mah cell in G3 is completely inadequate.

Is your experience with the G3 from actual or just guessing?

You forgot to show the suitcase that held the battery for this beauty ---

10,000mah would be nice that'll last me a week at most. The phone would be a bricks width tho lol

I like zerolemon batteries. The 9500 mAh ones, you have nice runtime without fear you will run out at the worst possible time. Like when you are driving in the middle of nowhere. Assuming no car charger (or blown fuse).

 

[Rakkety]

I bet putting a grain of uranium in phones will ensure that you never have to charge your phone again.

 

[LeoRex]

Battery size is a trade off... OEMs don't want to release bricks.

I'd take 3500mah battery. I'm a power user and the maxx/turbo are the only phones to make it a full 14-16hr day without having me worried. This includes newer phones like the galaxy s5 which would give me about 10hrs and the note 3.
Also some phones like the iPhone 6 and galaxy s5 are just to thin to me. With the thinner phones the cameras also stick out farther than the phone which personally I hate. Sweet spot for me is about 8mm give or take. My galaxy s5 felt like a lays potato chip lol same with my iPhone 5s

Hmm 10,000 is difficult to achieve yes may be in next 1-2 years we may see smartphones with that kind of battery capacity but the processor and screen resolution will also increase with the growing battery capacity which may lead to faster drains. I think it is processor and screen energy sucking capacity which need to go down more as we more to higher mAH storage . If you are looking to find out some of the best battery smartphones here is an exhaustive list.

.

Difference of course is that re-fueling the car takes time away from my day and may require a detour. Plunking my phone on my wireless charger when I go to bed requires no such thing.
