Survey: Most people don’t need 5G battery life to be the biggest anxiety

2021.03.22

It turns out that not many people upgrade their phones for 5G

A brief translation for those who are not familiar with English. The ratio of options on the horizontal axis on this chart last year was: longer battery life, more storage, faster speed, better shooting, and 5G network. Unexpectedly, more than 70% of people are eager for more battery life on their mobile phones. It seems that the battery is still the biggest shortcoming of mobile phones.


Indeed, in a sense, mobile devices are always facing the situation of being sealed by power consumption and heat. Whether it's a smart phone or a laptop, if you don't consider power consumption, battery life, and heating issues, then performance and experience can definitely rise N levels, and the design of a mobile phone is actually an expedient of space and power consumption from a fundamental point of view.


As for the importance of other options, it is actually quite easy to understand, but this 5G has the lowest sense of existence, which really surprised the editor. Perhaps this investigation was conducted abroad, because in addition to some countries such as China and South Korea, some small countries in Europe, for example, have not yet begun to build 5G, so 5G may not have a sense of existence for them.


From another perspective, there is a more important reason why 5G has no sense of existence is that 5G chips have actually been popularized. As long as you buy any mainstream mobile phone, it should basically provide support for 5G networks, so people's demand for 5G is naturally not so urgent, because 5G has become readily available.


Of course, the essential reason is that for the current mobile Internet applications, 4G is completely sufficient if the network speed can reach the standard, and WiFi is becoming more and more popular, 5G is expensive and not just needed, and it is worthless to spend money on 5G!
