When it comes to batteries, I'm afraid many people's impressions are still stuck in the era of replaceable lithium batteries. After entering the era of smart phones, the back panel of mobile phones has gradually changed to a non-detachable form, and people's perception of it is only on the topic of "how many milliamps" of battery capacity.
But at the moment when the mobile phone industry is crazy involution, even battery technology has been further developed. Blue Ocean Battery, Jinshajiang Battery, Qinghai Lake Battery, major brands have successively launched their own high-density batteries to improve the battery life of mobile phones. Why is battery technology getting so much attention with so much hardware?
In fact, a large part of the weight of a mobile phone comes from the battery; Both the weight and the interior space it occupies account for the majority of the phone. At a time when mobile phones are gradually becoming thinner and lighter, battery is a problem that must be overcome. High-density batteries improve the power storage capacity of the battery in the same volume by replacing the cell material and adjusting the structure of the internal electro-hydraulic solute.
In the case of Xiaomi, the recently rising Xiaomi 14 Ultra uses its newly developed GSR battery. The battery uses a new generation of silicon carbon anode technology, and the energy density has been further improved, reaching 779Wh L. Compared with ordinary batteries, there is a very obvious optimization. In terms of volume, GSR batteries are 8% smaller and less weighty than those used in the past by Xiaomi, but the battery capacity has increased from 5,000mAh to 5,300mAh.
However, the reason why the battery should also be "thin and light" is actually related to the rise of folding screen models. In order to control the width of the side body when folding, the folding screen mobile phone has to reduce the thickness of the unilateral body. Although the thin and light battery is not nothing, it is sacrificing the "** effect" brought by the battery life, which is a symptom rather than a cure. High-density batteries, on the other hand, are smaller and have a higher capacity, making them more capable of doing the job.
Of course, in addition to changes in volume and capacity, the current battery technology has been upgraded in terms of safety, cycle times and charging speed. The upgrade of the battery has also brought further optimization to our user experience.
