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?

    i’ve had such terrible luck with phone charging (USB connectors crapping out after not that many uses) that I like the idea of very large batteries for less frequent charging. I made another post in c/ultralight about this: https://lemmy.world/post/8305808

      That’s a fair complaint. My phone’s USB port acted like it was dying this summer, but seems to be back to normal now.

        Yes micro usb… From what I’ve heard, USB C is a little bit better.
