The price of never charging your phone again is... a lot.

This is awesome! For only $450 you can get a machine that can automatically swap battery packs placed on bulky $120 phone cases.

You don’t need to plug a cable in your phone anymore, your over engineered machine can swap battery packs for you

I never imagined that I would live this long to see the future

    So… you’re essentially carrying around a power bank on the back of your phone all the time? Seems like a gimmick at best.

    Honestly, fast charging has turned this into such a non-issue that you’ll be hard pressed to find a more convenient solution.

      Right?

      $450 and a toaster to use something like the external batteries I’ve used for a decade.

      I had one of those power bank cases, and it was absolutely awesome for extended battery life. It was always there with the phone, it was just a bulky case (which did not bother me), it tripled or quadrupled my battery life, and it was about $20.

      Sorely missing that it’s not available for my current phone (Pixel 8a).
