How about a bigger battery, so you just don't need the battery bank, and the form factor is sufficiently large enough to handle without needing a large case?

    I'm all for making a phone thicker if I can still use it with one hand. Just not wider or taller.

    The last several phones I've purchased have been so thin they were unusable without a case, and battery life about a day. They could double the thickness, still be less than a half inch thick, and add a battery 3 times the size of the internal one. That would get 2+ days of charge. With half the number of charge cycles, the battery lifetime would probably double.

    So twice as long between new phones, what sort of monster are you! Expecting the poor multinationals to build a phone for you and not have its effective lifespan artificially limited by the compromised battery solutions is basically communism, or socialism or woke.

    {Insert phone company} loves you and only wants what's best for you, it's super distressing to {insert phone company} that they put so much into the relationship and you are so cold and dismissive of them. You should go and buy a {insert new full retail price product} to make it up to them.
