Have you ever been away from your phone's charger for a long time and knowing how unique your phone is, the moment you use another person's charger, the one you left back at home, will no longer work again? I've been in that situation a lot.
I'm not using an iphone but I change my cord every four to five weeks. And these four to five weeks is if I stay loyal to the current cord I'm using. If I don't use another cord with my phone, the cord will work for about four to five weeks and begin to shake. I hate having cord issues so much because tell me why I'll have to turn my phone upside-down, find different angles, before my phone can gain some bars. It's so frustrating. Really.
If there was a feature I'll look forward to, and want my phone having, I'll love for it to be able to share battery power through Bluetooth, nearby share, hotspot or whatever means that doesn't require USB. You see, there are times where you'll have planned to get back from an event earlier and ended up not taking a charger with you. If there was a feature for sharing battery power, it'll be really awesome to have a friend share some battery power with you, won't it?
Let me tell you what brought about this idea. I remember this one time, a friend of mine in school needed to charge his phone for a document he needed to print out, and we had to submit it that day. There was no light around us, no one came with a powerbank, and worse still, he wasn't even with a cord. My phone battery was about 80 or so. In that situation, it would have been really nice if I shared some power with him. Even if it was just for him to boost his phone, things would have definitely been easier. So, I think situations like these, is where this feature becomes a necessity and i would love to see it implemented in future future phone updates.
For this feature, they could make it that Infinix phones shared to fellow Infinix phones, and iPhones shared with iPhones. Or it'll be amazing if one could share to the other. Apple is wont to doing things that accommodate only their fellow Apple products so if they ever, they might not be open to sharing with non-apple devices.
But don't you think this feature will be nice for those phones whose battery health are low, and those that tend to retain battery for a long time? With the 'share battery power' feature, many people will get to benefit from it. I have no idea if this is possible but it'll be really amazing if a feature like this existed. That way, I wouldn't have to bother about using a different charger for my phone and having my former charger develop issues.
This is my response to the digital lifestyle prompt for the week.
Thanks for reading.
