Well, first this should be marked as (2021).
The rest is just a bunch of BS anecdata that definitely does not tell the story the author wants it to tell. The chart is sorted by battery life rather than date which really muddies the picture. Looking at the dates I don't see "the decline of battery life" but rather "battery life is highly variable but devices are getting more efficient as they get more powerful".
Progress in the last 4 years (through mid-2025) shows this post has aged poorly even if the premise had been supported by the data. Many handhelds gaming devices get over 6 hours continuous play, and several like the Odin 2 have larger batteries and can get 10-12 hours easily. And they can be recharged from typical USB chargers.
