More charging=high chance damage=buy new=🤑
Batteries don't suck, they power the processing capability of an 80's CRAY-2 super computer thousands of time over in your pocket.
They need what iron man had in he’s chest
Even if solid state batteries are commercialized, Apple will take like 10 years before putting it into an iPhone.
After 2.5 years with my phone, if I have a REALLY lazy day and scroll instagram reels for hours… I definitely need to charge my 12 Pro well before the end of the day. I have no issues with charging overnight, but I'd like if I wasn't running into the single digits of battery charge before the end of the day. Not the end of the world. But improved battery tech DOES seem like it could be huge for a lot of stuff.
I agree. My Nokia in '99 could go 4-5 days without charging.
It's because you're using an iPhone, lady. Get a OnePlus 12 and you'll be able to recharge in 20 minutes even if your phone lasts only a day and a half.
Instead of making them thinner and thinner maybe just make it a bit thicker and last longer. At one point the iPhone was bending when people put it in their back pocket, remember that? This same battery tech is why Electric cars aren't really ready for real prime time.
First point here… This is a first world problem lol
Second, to say we're using the same battery tech that we used in the 90s is incorrect.
Thirdly, it's too expensive to the scale it needs to be right now for things like graphene batteries… Which companies like Samsung have been working on for 8 years now.
Fourth, batteries really aren't a huge problem anymore. Once we broke over 4,500 mAh, it's not really the batter that's problematic anymore. It's the software, and other hardware components like cooling and the SoC that are the main issue COUPLED WITH the horrendous habits of typical consumers when it comes to charging their batteries in their phones.
Fifth, if you're "panicking about your battery life… Then this must be your first day with a phone, and you can't think/plan properly.
2:25 I agree to keep that eternal battery power bank close by because battery capacity is not everlasting.
Just throw money at it we’ll figure it out
Advancement in battery tech is important enough to consider nationalizing it instead of commercializing it. We'd see improvements accelerate overnight.
I think the answer is a consumer changeable battery. It’s not so much that you charge the battery every on or two days, it’s that your paying a huge amount of money on a device that gets thrown out since the battery life is gone.
Always informative! Looking forward to one day having a longer-running battery!
Nah it's just an endless cycle of them messing around so people forever pay they could easily come up with batteries the last for days they just don't want to just like cars can have tires that can last come on people you know this is the truth
why do they even need batteries, there must be enough EMF put out by radio/tv/satellite/mains circuits and devices to power them even if we haven't got to tesla and aetheric energy yet
They don't. Get an Honor Magic V2. Got 5000mah battery and I'm getting 10 hours SoT!!!
Obviously because they want you to keep buying phones every year
No offense but you need a life if charging your phone at the end of your day or night is stressing you out, or if two days of battery life ain't enough for you.
The problem isn't with the battery tech. It is the poorly optimised software. Most android phones have unoptimised software and battery hog first party apps.Thus to compensate, phone manufacturers incorporate larger capacity batteries. OTOH, iPhones have optimised software and better software-hardware integration, but refuse to include larger capacity batteries in their phones to make you keep buying the next "best" iPhone. If Apple wanted, they could have M1/M2/M3 level battery performance on all of their phones.
Why do phone batteries still suck? Because the big corporations can still profit off of you when you buy a new phone or buy a new battery.

Can you go 2 days without eating
I have no problem with my iPhone battery, it doesn’t bother me to have to charge it every night.
What game was that naval ship?
Great, awesome video I wish batteries were so much better
Wanting an ever-thinner phone and simultaneously hoping for a longer battery life is the definition of having your cake and eating it at this point in technological evolution.
I remember reading articles for 15 years about new "revolutionary" battery technology coming soon…
What was your point? Did you know that the iPhone battery lasts the longest?
