In future you can get current flagship under a watt too. But then the new flagship with it’s 5W consumption will be so much better.
- agumonkey 7y agoOnly asking because under a Watt you get reliable small solar powered SoC
- simongr3dal 7y agoSmall solar powered like with calculators and their roughly 1” sq. solar power strip? That would be amazing but probably not feasible with the kind of display people have come to expect on their smartphone.
- bhouston 7y agoMaybe they can figure out how to embed a solar panel into the display. I guess it would absorb light though so it may be hard to balance with a light emitting display. I wonder if one can be very specific on directionality for both emission (outward direction only) and absorption (inward coming light only.) Logically I would think the emission layer goes on top of the absorption layer. This seems on the face of it possible. I do not know enough about the specifics if it is reasonable to do. I could see it though. Just leave your phone face up on your desk during the day to have it charge.
- agumonkey 7y agoI was just wondering about that. But light emissions would probably cancel solar intake.
- agumonkey 7y agoNot that small. But say smartphone case sized solar panel.
