Now I have a 6+ and I plug it up nightly usually at 65-70 percent left til death and I'm not concerned. Shouldn't ease of use and function weigh heavier over how long it'll last? Especially since these devices are a lot lighter and sleeker than the devices say 20 years ago. And if I'm to stand corrected isn't there enough portable power sources being made to compensate that?!
I understand what you're saying to a degree -- however, what good is a phone that has great in ease of use and function if it is always dead? Or what good is a highly capable phone if you have to limit what you use it for to conserve battery?
I for one would prefer the phones to be a tad thicker with more batter life. Example is the Motorola droid turbo -- that phone by no means is uncomfortably thick but battery life is outstanding. It is a great looking phone and is still able to get almost 2 days of use.
Apple and Samsung seem to be in a race to see who can make the thinnest phone -- it's about bragging rights and marketing.
