people got lazy about plugging them in

always have been, here. the old cdma flip phone went about a month between charges, even when it was 5+ years old. the new volte one sucks. with a higher power draw and the shitty 4g signal here, i have to plug it in every few days. the only 'plus' is that i always know where a charger cable is now, because it's usb-c and i use that for other things, too.

We always want better :)

We just spend more and more time on our phones. I still charge every night. Each new phone I’ve gotten has had more battery life than the last but I also use the phone constantly, so it’s no more likely to last the day.

This is somewhat masked because my car has fast wireless charging. I just put my phone down and when I get somewhere my battery is topped off
