2010: We want bigger batteries, they give us colorful phones

2015 We want bigger batteries, they give us 1mm thinner phones

2020 We want bigger batteries, they give us 5 cameras

2025 We want bigger batteries, they give us AI

Phones are a great example of the utter failure of capitalism to address what people actually need and want.

Steve Jobs proved that consumers don’t actually know what they want until you tell them. And it’s the manufacturers job to tell them what they want and deliver it.

Since Apple doesn’t want a bigger battery that means no one gets a bigger battery.
