Fuck these thin flat phones. Give me A 3 ton battery and A built in fan cooler system so the bitch will not overheat when I play A game for less than 5 minutes. Phones need to get thicc again.

The big battery is neat and my personal tolerance for working with potentially hazardous tools is astronomical.

That, however, does make me pause for a second when thinking about having an 8Ahr battery in a device (maybe in a pocket) that is going to get kicked around a little in my daily life.

(It's not that the device is potentially deadly, it's that the injuries sustained from that battery would be more life changing than anything else...)

We have tablets. Granted, they aren't thick but they are considerably wider than a typical phone. If you want to implement better thermal management and use massive batteries, that is probably a better place to start. Some creative 3D printed solutions could give you that "built-in" look and feel.

You have options, is what I am saying.

Right, because when I'm taking a short lunch walk and want to catch some Pokemon I bust out a tablet with 3D printed attachments.

I already get too many ladies as it is, I couldn't do that to them.

I see no negatives here..... Sounds kinda baller, if you ask me.
