Ok it’s 4G and Android 12, so a little bit behind the times, and weighs over a pound, but it has 65 watt fast charging and a built in 1200 lumen flashlight (I wonder if that doubles as a video light). I found out about it a few days ago and have been fascinated by it since then. The weight isn’t so bad if you consider that it gets rid of the need to bring a power bank.

Not gonna buy real soon but wow. Maybe they will do a 5G version sometime. I posted in another community that I want to be able to pull it out and say “that’s not a phone, THIS is a phone”.

Any thoughts?

    ha, battery life is very important to me, but this is a bit much

    would be nice if someone would do a more reasonable 8-10000mah

      8000 doesn’t seem much different than the 5000-6000 that almost everything now already has. Make it swappable and then we’re talking.

      It occurs to me another advantage of a very large internal battery is that you can power the phone from it while something else is plugged into the USB-C port. There are probably splitters or hubs that let you plug a power bank and another device into the port at the same time, but it’s more crap and more cables, impairing mobility.
