vivo Y300 Pro has a ridiculously huge battery

15 August 2024
And not just that, but it's got very fast charging too - a match made in heaven if there ever was one.

      I'd rather classify the Mate 20 X as a "semi-modern" smartphone, as I've completely omitted any officially available phone beyond 3 years of age in my original comment. If the Mate 20 X is considered a modern smartphone, then my Nokia 8 can also be considered a modern smartphone in the same context.

      At the same time, my comment considers the virtual size of the display, not physical dimensions. The examples you've considered have curved displays in the first place, hence their displays should appear smaller than the expected width. Same with the zero errors with measurements regarding length, and inaccuracies in specifications.

        Ab, 15 Aug 20246s Gen 3 is rebranded SD695 (:Yes my bro. I'd rather have an underclocked 6 Gen 1 as 6s Gen 3 or 7 Gen 3 rather than having overclocked & overcooked 695 which is actually overclocked of 685 which is actually overclocking of 665=>662=>680. The naming of 695 should be 688 & 6s Gen 3 should be 688+.

            Konrad Lorenz, 15 Aug 2024There are already devices out there with 10.000 mah batteries...There is even 20000 mah

            But none of them are sil -carbon variety that these new waves of 6500 mah are coming with

            So those 10000mah are much heavier and takes up way more volume

At the max it should be around 10% increase, so I am guessing around 220g, as the Vivo v40 series is around 192g. Still a good bargain for customers as the overall battery lifespan/endurance is surely going to last longer than usual.

                    To be fair, the 16:9 Sony Xperia Z Ultra was even bigger, with a 6.4" screen that gave it a 92mm width and a 179mm height, but that's an exception that's a needle in a haystack.

                    Also, the 6.8" 19.5:9 S24 Ultra's 79mm width beats the 5.5" 16:9 iPhone 8 Plus's 78.1mm width, and that's a device I found that not only matches the criteria, but also has some chonky bezels as well.

                      But how much weight and volume will it add to the phone. Most people don't like heavy and bulky phones. My limit is 200 g.

                        Konrad Lorenz, 15 Aug 2024There are already devices out there with 10.000 mah batteries...Even 30 000 and some powerbanks to power your whole household for 10 days without rechargng.

                            My next phone will have 7000mah. I will wait if I have to.

                                    Li-Ion batteries swell beyond the usage period, while Li-Po batteries tend to force restart their host devices after the average usage period.

                                      6 inches in 16:9 is yet to be beaten by modern smartphones, let alone the typical 5.5 inch 16:9 form factor.
