>I think while the energy density has doubled
Has it really ? I remember the same mAh ratings or slight bumps in phones for many generations. 2016 Samsung galaxy s7 had 3000mah battery - latest ones have like 3700mah ? There have been larger batteries in bigger phones - but I'd like to have a 6000mah battery in a normal form factor.
The only doubling I see is in 10 year period, but phone size grew considerably in that time as well.
And smart watch batteries still suck no matter the price range.
- simonh 5y agoYou’re not taking into account the weight of those batteries or their cost as components. A bigger phone might not just have a bigger battery, it might have a bigger cheaper battery with the same capacity. Only looking at the capacity doesn’t tell you anything useful about charge to weight.
