But today's smartphones are still nowhere near the convenience of a 2005 Nokia phone which could go several days on one charge, and you could also swap out the battery for a spare. Phones used to do so much less, and the software was optimized to conserve energy on those limited use cases.
Similarly EVs don't need to exactly reach the convenience of refueling, it just needs to be good enough in balance.
- jmaker 3y agoHow does that analogy apply if you’re trying to justify that one should simply give up that “convenience,” which has just been a basic notion of car driving? In my view it’s rather an inconvenience. I’d rather not have to manage that concern at all. Instead, you suggest to accept an even worse alternative? Smartphones are capable of more, not less. EVs aren’t capable of more than an ICEV, which doesn’t hold up to an analogy.
