What if I don't want a 240W charger?

Just better ic controller and bms. The development of newer battery technology for better density with sustainable performance is on per with development of display technology.

      Ok this dude is not aware of sd 865, 845, 855, 865+, 870, 8+ gen 1, 8 gen 2.and so on.

      Do some study

        Only cool thing about real me is Larissa Bonesi or what, she was also ambassador 5 years ago. back then phones had 8mp camera. 2 battery is not a standard method of making monolithic product, Cars can have it as they switch so the spare can cool down. Boka engineer says PCB temp goes 140~300 deg celsius. but anything beyond, 120 we cant make mould insert, as shots goes down, too many fillet chamfers are need, Mahesh you ask the chinees guy to make it! Chinees guy have fangs mind ya.

        next you ll have to make a RISC which operates sub CISKs, that is very bad for software.

            I will never buy a phone that does 0-100 in more than 5 minutes. It is a right, a *right* to have my phone 100% any time I need it and not having to wait. 5 minutes tops. 3 minutes is closer to what should be realistically there for us consumers. And also an easy way to fix the battery once it dies.

              There are 10kmah and 20kmah battery smartphones available and I don't see any news coverage, I don't see the so called advocates for better battery life supporting them.. and when energiser did a little crowdfunding it failed..

              So at the very least it's NOT a determining factor for most people

              We have been struggling with other battery chemistry for decades to increase energy density so bigger batteries is currently the most practical approach

              And when we do get better density have scalability problems

                another 8mp+2mp trash

                  This phone is solid both on paper and in leaked images. Overall looks very promising.

                    And where are the announcements for improved software, i.e bloatware removal capability; more punctual security updates?

                      Anonymous, 05 Jan 2023Dimensity 8200 Redmi K60E/Poco F5 - 66W charging IQoo Neo... moreredmi k60 is flagship

                        What's the point of crazy fast charging? Realme should bloatware from their phone first or remove the useless 2MP macro or depth sensor.

                          At some point, they have to see it's diminishing returns right? It only seems like they're pushing for such high charging speeds for bragging rights. Even "just" 65W is more than enough.

                          I feel like they're coming up with this as a side stepping solution for the lack luster battery performance of the 8XX / 8 gen X phones which is understandable but I'd much rather see software optimisations for better battery life.

                          It's more versatile to have better battery life than have better charging speeds

                            Wish these manufacturers would stop using trash 2mp sensors
