smartphone batteries

The annual Mobile World Congress (MWC) trade fair kicked off on Monday, bringing together global experts in mobile and telecoms to present their latest product innovations and talk about the future of tech.

In the future, smartphone batteries will have to contain information about battery life and this part of the device will have to be easily replaced. This was laid out in the Batteries Directive passed by the European Parliament, following consumer complaints across Europe regarding the life cycle of batteries in their smartphones.
