This prototypical smartphone packs a massive 10,000mAh battery [feedly]

This prototypical smartphone packs a massive 10,000mAh battery
// Android Phone Fans

Most of us are happy to get anything between 2,600mAh and 3,500mAh in a smartphone for battery, but one company is pushing the limit in a big way. Oukitel has been working on a prototypical smartphone that houses a whopping 10,000mAh battery.

As you can imagine, the battery adds a whole hell of a lot more girth than the typical size would, and you would have a tank of a smartphone to carry around. That shouldn't be an issue for someone who values battery life over size, though. And it doesn't even look that bad in the few photos of the thing we've seen.

We will always prefer improved battery technology over sheer capacity, but in the absence of development for the former side we'd say this is a nice stop gap for anyone who can't stand the petite batteries of today. No word on what other specs this thing will have or if it'll ever come to market, but let us know if you wouldn't mind owning a brick of a phone in order to get what should equate to days of battery life.
