Perhaps because mobile phones are becoming increasingly useful in our daily lives, many people hope that their battery life can be stronger because charging them is a very troublesome task. But I don't know if you have noticed it. It seems that major mobile phone manufacturers have no intention of increasing their battery capacity now, because as of now, there are still many new phones with battery capacity less than 4000 milliamperes. However, although these mobile phone manufacturers have not increased their batteries, they have enhanced the fast charging capacity of their phones. Recently, there was news that Xiaomi has developed a 100W super fast charging technology, so the problem arises. Why are mobile phone manufacturers researching fast charging but unwilling to increase their battery? The underlying reason is not simple.
To analyze why mobile phone manufacturers are unwilling to carry large batteries, we first need to analyze the drawbacks that large batteries can bring. Although carrying large batteries on mobile phones can enhance their battery life, it can lead to increased thickness and weight of the phones. After all, large batteries will occupy a lot of space, and other parts of the phone also require space. Therefore, if these phone manufacturers want large batteries, they need to increase the weight and volume of the phone. However, many users nowadays prefer lightweight phones, especially some female users who prefer lighter and thinner phones because they are more convenient to carry and have a better feel and experience. Therefore, phone manufacturers often choose to sacrifice large batteries to attract more users.
Furthermore, in addition to enhancing the phone's battery life, a large battery on a mobile phone may also have a longer lifespan compared to a small battery phone, as the phone charges less frequently. As the phone battery also has its own lifespan, it is said that the lifespan of a typical lithium-ion battery on a mobile phone is 500 charging cycles, while the biggest difference between a large battery and a small battery may be the number and cycle of charges, So relatively speaking, small batteries do not last as long as large batteries, so the cycle for users to change their phones or batteries will be faster. Moreover, in order to encourage users to purchase new phones, mobile phone manufacturers will surpass old models in many aspects. If various large batteries are introduced now, it may be very difficult for new phones to innovate in the future.
Finally, due to the small battery size of mobile phones, products related to charging from phone manufacturers, such as chargers and power banks, will also be more popular. These products will be favored by more users. If the phone's battery life is too strong, these products will soon be phased out.
