why with all of the advances in the phone industry most phone batteries don’t hold for long ?

In: Technology

Answer 1

Batteries have improved a lot since 2000, compare a Nokia 8300 from 2001. Which has a 750 mAh battery. To a new iPhone 12 with a 2,815 mAh. Almost 4 times larger battery.

But we also got a lot of new battery draining features, larger color screen, touch screen, camera, Bluetooth, faster processor, etc. Hardware features are growing faster than battery technology.
