Know about Smartphone Batteries


SMARTPHONE BATTERY

Battery types
 
            Smartphones quickly became an integral part of our life. They became much versatile than they used to be. what if the battery is of low rated, the battery are rated with factor maH i.e
milli-Ampere-hours this decides the power that the battery has.we have the smartphones with AWESOME features. but If the batteries doesnot last long what is the use. So the battery also plays a Vital role in the Smartphones. If the batteries are of much high rating that can last  long days will make us to enjoy and to use the phone in many ways.
lets talk about the types of batteries.


By looking at the battery label we can see many details like 
  1. mah
  2. type
  3. company name
  4. manufactured Place

Types of Batteries

  • The Nickel Cadmium (NiCd) battery.
  • The Nickel-Metal Hydride (NiMH) battery.
  • The Lead Acid battery.
  • The Lithium Ion battery.
  • The Lithium Polymer battery.

Lithium Polymer

            Lithium Polymer batteries are the most advanced batteries available in the market right now and these batteries are the ones used by several vendors. They are made up of plastic instead of metal, which makes them usable on a smartphone of any type. Having said that, they can be used in a smartphone measuring from 5.2mm to 10mm thickness. And, they are the strongest ones as well, and of course, they explode if you don't manufacture them correctly.

            The Lithium Polymer batteries do not suffer from memory effect and offer 40 percent more battery life than others in this list.

Lithium Ion

           The lithium ion batteries are advanced and allow for a high charge capacity based on the size and weight of the battery. However, these lithium ion batteries are slightly expensive, and they are not compatible with the old generation smartphones.




Having  said that, these lithium ion batteries will not remember the charge cycle, and as a result, the battery capacity will not be reduced.

Nickel Cadmium

           These are the cells that suffer from memory effect. And, the memory effect will result in reducing the capacity of the battery and its lifespan as well. To avoid this issue, a user needs to fully discharge the battery and recharge it again, which is irritating and underwhelming for anyone.
   


       Also, these cells are made up of some toxic materials that are harmful to health as well. So, all the reasons mentioned above made the smartphone manufacturers stop using these batteries.

Nickel Metal Hydride

           The Nickel Metal Hydride batteries are kind of an upgrade to the Nickel Cadmium batteries, and they boast of the same size as the latter. However, what's different here is, the Nickel Metal Hydride batteries offer 30 to 40 percent more battery juice than the others. Also, these cells are affected by memory as well. Do make a note that these batteries are not made up of toxic materials and are not harmful to nature.




           But the issue with these batteries is that the voltage drops after several charges (maybe after 100 counts), which leads them to explode at times. So, manufacturers skipped these due to the same reason. 

New Lithium Technology

          The latest technology and the final one to arrive in recent times is the Lithium technology, which is said to be 1000 times stronger than its lithium predecessors and it might offer battery life of one complete day with just one minute of charge, which is going to be insane


This batteries are placed in smartphones and are non-removable batteries.
