This is What a Smartphone With an 18,000mAh Battery Looks Like

Ok guys, here is your chance to buy that phone with a huge battery because you don’t care about thickness or elegant design.

All I can think of is Jethro Tull's: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thick_as_a_Brick

The person who thought this was a viable product should be taken out back and have their hands bludgeoned with this.

Does it come in Energizer Bunny pink?

We wouldn’t be having this discussion if smartphones began using removable batteries where you can swap out a dead battery with a fully charged spare.

True, but then we would be having the discussion of cheap crappy third-party knock off batteries oversaturating the battery market, blowing up, DOA, not holding its capacity for a full year, pretending to be genuine OEM batteries,....
You know, stuff that we dealt with on laptops for a number of years.

Did I fall asleep and wake up on April 1?

I can’t wait to pick up an Otterbox for this.

18mm thick? That's only 1mm thicker than the stupid folding phone people are creaming their pants over.

 

[Moonjumper]

Very niche. It’s not for me, but there will be a few people saying ‘finally’.

 

[JosephAW]

Too bad they didn't make a thick version with multiple antennas for great signal strength.

I'm gonna need bigger pants so this bad boy fits in my pocket

I won’t ;-)

Will this be able to replace a potato in the front of your pants? Asking for a friend.

 

[JosephAW]

Will this even pass a TSA pat down?

Very astute observation.

And that 1mm is probably the camera bump

This product is the antithesis of Apple.

 

[mozumder]

This is hilarious. Best part are all the thin buttons & speaker grills for a thin profile phone instead of using wide buttons to fill the edges to be more accessible.

“Is that a ridiculously voluminous smartphone in your pants?”

 

[JPack]

Probably more for commercial, industrial or even military.

This thing has no drop or water resistance rating.

It feels like a Kodak smartphone, a last gasp in attempt to remain relevant.

Even Feaux-dak wouldn’t have the balls to try and sell this thing.

 

[Hmm]

It’s “unapologetically huge”.

 

[supergt]

But does it have a notch! No notch, no buy.

 

[Eriamjh1138@DAN]

Yeah... That’s not fitting any of my pockets

Is that a phone in your pocket or are you happy to see me?

 

[Darmok N Jalad]

Probably more for commercial, industrial or even military.

Except it’s not ruggedized. Maybe commercial, but even then they probably still want durable.

 

[citysnaps]

Most important of all, is it lightning or USB-C? =)

Centronics.

Uh, you are talking about the phone...right?
