While I highly agree with the idea of not obsessing too much with thin and light, that's a brick bigger than old school Nokias.

Yeah, but also lasts about as long lol :D

the title makes me question if we should ban the verge from being a tech news source thanks to their low tech intelligence.

The best part about this phone. the reactions to it.

The number of people I've seen say "omg it's going to be so heavy, what happens if you drop it on your face in bed lololol!@!!!!1!!" makes me weep for humanity.

Ketchup is better than mustard.

GUI is better than Command Line Interface.

Dubs are better than subs

Just use it as a charger.

Its type-C so you can just use it as a battery (which it is)to charge your other devices.

Won’t visit often..

Kinda cool for when you need a secondary phone for 2fa and second number that you use only at home and can't be bothered to charge it all the time.

Would buy it just for that.

Exclamation marks?

I WILL find your ITX build thread, and I WILL recommend the SIlverstone Sugo SG13B

 

Primary PC:

i7 8086k - EVGA Z370 Classified K - G.Skill Trident Z RGB - WD SN750 - Jedi Order Titan Xp - Hyper 212 Black (with RGB Riing flair) - EVGA G3 650W - dual booting Windows 10 and Linux - Black and green theme, Razer brainwashed me.

Draws 400 watts under max load, for reference.

 

How many watts do I need? ATX 3.0 & PCIe 5.0 spec, PSU misconceptions, protections explained, group reg is bad

Question..... Can you legally take this on a plane? I mean isn't there a restrictions on how big the battery can be to fly?

I just want to sit back and watch the world burn.

Interesting product, but I would prefer a thinner phone with a removable battery instead. From a pure design standpoint, the LG V20 and G5 did the removable battery design well with metal "premium" materials but lacked an IPxx rating. On the other side, Samsung was able to incorporate a removable battery and IP67 rating with the Galaxy S5, but it was judged "ugly" and "cheap" looking with its plastic materials. If these ideas could be incorporated into a new product I think it would be very exciting to have a "premium" designed phone with a removable battery and IP67 rating or higher.

 

Non-removable batteries just don't promote long lasting devices (> 2 years) on average due to the nature of Li-ion batteries. Instead they create more e-waste due to more "upgrades" from consumers feeling their battery doesn't last as long or is throttling their experience as seen with the iPhone issue. Additionally, with annual flagship releases, people are tempted just to upgrade to have the "latest" thing. We have definitely started to see diminishing returns on smartphone specs in recent years; however people retaining their phones longer is simply bad for business.

 

The ironic thing to me is that when these manufacturers go to make these premium glass and metal designs with non-removable batteries, most users just slap on a case right after purchase anyway. Sure some people don't use a case, but I think its fair to say the average consumer does. Additionally, if a user attempts to replace their "non-replaceable" battery, the resistance seals are broken and it might not be possible to reseal them.

Or there's this thing called an outlet, just leave it plugged in 24/7 since it's already being left at home 24/7.
