How is this new?
There are plenty of Chinese phones with high capacity batteries. My current Xiaomi 15t pro as a example has a 5500mah, 3.93vdc battery (that's 21.62wh).
And they just all shipping fine...
All the Chinese phones that still have a high capacity battery in the EU use a dual-cell battery. If you look up the part number for yours (BP5H), you can see that it looks like two batteries glued together rather than a single solid chunk. That split slightly reduces the capacity compared to the models sold in China, but it allows them to exceed the 20 Wh limit.
I see. Thanks for breaking it down for me.
So the Innovation is that apple is selling a single cell +20wh battery, that can be legally limited to below 20wh?
Speaking of using Chinese batteries in ROW phones: the cables are shorter on Chinese high capacity single cell batteries, so you can't exchange them in your European phone.
I drove an i3 rex, first generation. The gas motorcycle engine loved breaking down, due to disuse. Such an unreliable offence of crap.
According to the dealership mechanic, the engine was packaged in a way that made the fluids collect in places they shouldn't.
I have driven the entire east coast on mine. I have put 60k miles in mine. All trouble free. Best car I have ever owned. If I have time on a trip I charge up and if I don’t I just use gas. That mechanic was pulling your leg.
First generation? According to Wikipedia and the few websites I could find, in American models, the rex had a different control setup that was simpler then here in Germany.
