Electrical engineer here. I love extra large batteries in my phones, kept my LG v20 way longer than I would have otherwise just because I didn't want to give up my extended battery. If you're seeing premature battery failure it's likely either poor quality battery cells, which wouldn't be unexpected in cheap offbrand batteries, or you're shortening the batteries lifespan with fast chargers and discharging to 0% frequently.
I personally would rather have my phone be lightweight and carry a small power bank in my pocket or backpack or fannypack or satchel. The cord is a drawback as it can sometimes restrict mobility, and the phone gets hot. I live in a place where it is 15+ C in the fall and spring with 40+ C months long summer peaks. I have a phone cooler that has a fan, and the power bank has another port for it to plug into. Now I have two cables dangling from my phone. For some reason, I manage to always get them caught on knobs for drawers or doors.
