> A smartphone would last 1 - 2 days before going offline.
If we assume a 50% charge at crisis start, and a rational response by the person using it:
* Turn off wifi, cellular data, bluetooth, other unneccesary stuff
* Turn screen brightness to minimum
* Send only text messages
* Don't use phone unless sending or receiving important message
any decent smartphone will last 4 days or more.
Example: I have a midrange Samsung A5 for an office phone (mandatory company rules). With wifi and 4G enabled, but only being used to check the occasional message. It lasts 8 days on a charge.
