      Solid state has zero possibility of doing either of those. That is one of the big selling points. The others are that they are 30-50% get, they last longer, and they can charge faster.

      from what i understand, most vehicles use LiFe (i think this was wrong actually, i think most modern EVs use li-ion batts, they really should be using LiFe though.) battery technology, which is almost innert compared to LiPo technology, phones use Li ion batteries which are different from both of those.

      Lithium batt technology sucks.

        Both my samsung phones as well as all the lgs ive had used lipo batteries. Both lgs and one samsung (so far) have swollen enough to push the display out of the bezel.

          please inform me whether those batts said “li-ion” on them, or “LiPo” on them, because those are different.

          Most modern phones, to my knowledge, use li-ion batts.

          LiPo has sort of become a catch all for lithium batts, but it’s not accurate.

          What the hell are you doing to your phones? Across all the different brands I’ve used with lipo batteries in the past ~20 years, I’ve never had one get swollen.
