The iPhone Battery: The Power and Its Weakness
The iPhone is Apple's smartphone product, bearing the i-standard of all Apple products that came before it. With the ever rising popularity of the iPod, forecasting the bright competitive future of the iPhone isn't an impossible task.
The iPhone is basically a smartphone built with multimedia capabilities, internet connectivity, as well as a 2.75G quad-band GSM network connection system. It has an integrated 2.0 megapixel camera, Wi-Fi connectivity capabilities, and an impressive touch screen user interface system, with a virtual keypad as its main "mobile phone" input system. The phone's touch system is known for its cutting edge technology, which is in itself a standard bearer for the said technology. Its storage features are quite impressive, boasting a 4 gigabyte and 8 gigabyte model for potential users to choose from. It comes with an internal iPhone battery, which powers the iPhone impressively, the raw power fueling the iPhone and its boasted features.
The iPhone battery has a talk time rating of up to eight hours, an internet usage time of six hours, video playback time of seven hours, twenty-four hours of music playback, and two hundred fifty hours of standby time power.
The iPhone battery stands to outperform the batteries of its leading competitors, easily. With the iPhone battery's eight hours of talk time, it beats Nokia's N95 by half, as the Nokia N95's talk time life lasts four hours. The Samsung Blackjack has a talktime rating of 5.5 hours, the Blackberry Curve 8300 with its 4 hour talktime rating and the Palm Treo 750 with a 4 hour talktime rating, are all outperformed by the iPhone battery.
The iPhone battery is truly impressive.
But, though it's impressive state of nature, there is one particular downside which it looses to its leading competition: the iPhone battery is non removable. It is internal.
Traveling with an iPhone would therefore mean having to bring one's travel charger along, as there are no removable batteries available. Unlike most smartphone models, which are powered by removable batteries, low iPhone battery statues have to be resolved by charging them. Most smartphone users, using "the usual" smartphones, purchase extra batteries for those in case of emergency situations. With the iPhone battery, this isn't possible.
Another major issue with the iPhone battery is that eventually, it's charging cycle would eventually die out. One would have to bring one's iPhone to an official iPhone shop, or iStore to have one's iPhone battery changed.
So there you have it. The iPhone battery. Powerful, but with one weakness.
