Question about something lingering on my mind for a long time and if it would be possible to build such a smartphone i picture in my head.......

jbme

Hello Community image

I dont know if there is already a thread about my lingering thought so i hope you all could still bear with my inability to use the search function properlyimage Therefore i apologize in advance image

since the dawn of time....well at least for me image...i hated and still hate that ongoing trend with buliding a smartphone that has a non removable battery. Of course in the end i realize that with modern batterys which you can shape in any form whatsoever it is more efficient to let the battery always be integral. Not to speak about that with being waterproof it would be not so easy if the battery should be removable. But since the release of moto mods and the motorola z3 play i have a funny thought on my mind and it is literally killing me because i couldnt find anything about it via internet search and it feels like it wouldnt be to difficult or even is already possible to realize my thought. So i would be really thankfull if you could help me out with this one image

Soooo finally getting to my question image. There are battery mods for the z play smortphones which you can easily clap on your motorola and easily remove again if you want to. With this method the mod only really function as a charger for your non-removable battery and with that gives your smartphone more juice for the day. BUT isnt it possible to programm and make a mod like that but with the intention of not being a charger for the non-removable battery but being the main battery altogether ? That way instead of powering up the battery which powers up and runs the smartphone that mod would directly be the powersource for the smartphone. But this time not on the inside the smartphone but on the outside dividing the Smartphone into two easily separable units but by claping them together again making a fully usable and powered up Smartphone. Isnt that possible to do ? That would be so awesome if it is possible. just think about it. You could easily change your main battery without poking up your smartphone just by removing the mod. You would retain the waterproofing on both battery and main smartphone. And the best thing about it because the main power is the Mod itself the other main smartphone unit wouldnt need a charge port for the battery making more room for other possible parts being build in and also with the non-removable battery out of the main smartphone unit making even more room which could be used otherwise. For me that would be a dream come true. I would get my removable battery feature without someone else loosing features like being waterproff and so on. Just thinking about it makes me giggle image.

So my dear community i would really appreciate your thoughts on that matter image. Isnt it possible to do so ? Or is it really too difficult to make it work image ?.


Thank you all in advance image

    They don't work that way for a reason. Try removing the battery of a Motorola phone with a removable battery while plugged in and you'll see what happens. The system crashes. Let's say your phone's internal battery is at zero then you slap on a mod and it powers the phone directly instead of charging the battery. If you take it off or it falls off, your system crashes. That would cause much more headache and pain for users then using the mod as it was implemented to charge the battery. They could design a Moto Z phone with a removable battery instead of a non-removable one but I don't see them going that route.

    To add to Stuart's post,

     

    Consider if you remove the battery from your laptop while it is on (and no longer plugged in) do it once your computer will boot up, microsoft may do some checks and blammo your in windows. (windows has to be the easiest example here as it does not like anything out of the ordinary)

     

    Do it numerous times and your in for a treat. Your operating system will not know what to do, if you are lucky it will boot into those same checks and just do a scan maybe try to reorder or potentially require you to goto a previous known good backup. (For those who have the backups activated).. IF it was done enough times you may be better off reloading the drive to get rid of the errors...

     

    Cell phone would be similar. the operating system needs to be shut down properly to keep all the data in the correct locations.

     

     

    Older cell phones, Motorola razr, motorola startac, had a battery that clipped on the outside, but had much less of an operating system as they were cell phones, and not pocket computers that can also make phone calls
