i think theyre going to keep making them worse so people are more likely to replace them after two years because less people are wanting to keep buying them

picking proper phones also helps with the issue

dont pick the "2600mah/ 3200mah" bullshit

6000mAh or around there

and proper amoled display with true black background

you can get easily week of lifetime from the phone

as much as i would love removable battery its just health risk to anyone not only "so-so" knowledge about them

but what manufacturers should do is stop fucking gluing/welding that shit to phone/case itself to prevent professional/hobbyist repairs

how are they a health risk?

things with even smaller replacable batteries have been around for decades

cause people want to punch the faggots who cant into electronics and end up breaking something badly

and shit like this just wont have nearly enough juice for devices these days

cause everyone wants their phone to be able to run fucking skyrim vr and crysis simultaneously

so the chips in them are way too overpowered (8gb of ram in a fucking phone ?? please...)

as are the fucking apps

and the coding in most apps ios or android is outright fucking disgusting

like this said discord

electron itself is relatively decent tool

but sometimes "native" app would have been better choice

than glorified browser

i easily get away with having an old phone because the only thing i use my phone for other than calls and texts is use clover before i go to sleep

phone is work tool for me in most cases (even tho most used thing in it is still dialer and email

and i get by with old phone and get week~ish lifetime on it

but thats me running underclocks,no eyecandy (why the fuck my menus need transition when they could be instant) and other trickery to make already huge battery last way longer

i get by with mine by using my phone for calling and basic stuff and occasional hotspot to the second old phone that was flagship that i use for dumb stuff like newpipe and manga, that i cant just use outright because its verizon

i mean if you can make portable IP-phone use 3.5mA of energy (give or take) on idle (deepsleep+electronics)

and it during call uses around 150mA (if even that)

how the fuck can 3000mA devices last a day in idle these days

hardware backdoors

save and send screenshots

not even that but just outright retard apps what want to ping home etc

and bad battery management tools for hardware (hardware manufacturers can be blamed on that too tho)

same situation is with laptops tho

64Wh battery on fucking laptop

i was inpressed with my dell's bios option to limit the battery charge and specify at what level it starts charging again from

and it sucks it dry in 3 hours of use

like what in the actual fuck

the use being browsing web on dim screen and no candy

sounds like windows

windows is suppose to be ok battery wise if you install the manuaferer bloatware / drivers
