why i think mobile hardware needs to concentrate on battery life now

Had a galaxy s4 for a while now and i just use it for calls/internet/camera and the odd game and i have to charge it every day.

Now the specs of a lot of modern phones and tablets you are talking quad core 2ghz + and 3gb of ram and i have to say i really do not see why they need that sort of specs perhaps there might be the odd game but i really cannot see how going online or watching a video needs that.

Every year we get a incremental upgrade but the battery remains the same while there may be improvements to battery life by making it more efficient but battery's remain the same for me personally i would sacrifice the slimness on a phone for a bigger battery.

Though one thing i did wonder i had a old calculator which had a little solar panel in it i wonder why that has not been done on a phone yet sure you may keep your phone in the pocket but taking it out to charge would not be a issue
