Just when the batteries were breaking all the records came the ultra-infinity mobiles. China has a lesson for them

He Samsung Galaxy S25 Edge He has just come to the market. It is a telephone that presumes finishes and whose main argument is in an ultra -launch design that differentiates it from your family brothers Galaxy S25. The problem? Miracles do not exist, and having less space for components translates into a smaller battery. The only solution to get less size to have a decent battery density is to bet on the Silicon-carbona technology that Samsung has not implemented in its EDGE. Result? A high range with 6.7 inches and 3,900mah, A countercurrent movement of the industry. One day of use. Despite the little battery capacity, Samsung promises that its Galaxy S25 Edge will last a day without too many problems. The problem here is that, for a while to this part, the rest of the manufacturers have been obsessed that their phones last more than a day. In fact, today a day of intensive use is a somewhat poor figure. Devices like him Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra, iPhone 16 Pro Maxand virtually any high range from China reaches two days of use or, at least, the day and a half with intensive use. There are no miracles in optimization. The phones They are increasingly powerfulits processors are comfortable between the three and the four nanometers and we have been with optimizations in each of the telephone components to minimize energy consumption. But the new bright screens consume energy, the Snapdragon 8 Elite It is something swallow, and have a phone with the ability to record 8K, execute games in maximum resolution at 120 Hz and, ultimately, to pull with everything, spend drums. A countercurrent. 10,000mahit is what has managed to introduce real to a phone with a habitual thickness. Honor already has phones with batteries of 8,000mahand this year it has been clear that even the old 5,000mah barrier begins to fall short. Speaking an Android phone with 3,900Mah is risky, a lot. We are facing a change of generation in batteries. That day and a half is about to become a new scarce figure, and that is that with the democratization of batteries close to 10,000mAh we will have better autonomies than ever. Silicon-carbon is still a face and incipient technology, but China is squeezing to turn it into the standard of its phones. The solution. Xiaomi herself told us that some of its mobiles land with less battery in Europe with respect to China for a simple reason: The costs. These gigantic batteries are not economical, and manufacturers like Samsung bet on traditional technology to contain the price of their devices. Despite this, the only alternative to view if the ultradelgated phones want to succeed is to bet on silicon-carbon, even if necessary to cut in other specifications. Can. The ultra-of the mobile with good battery exists, and we have examples in the Tecno Spark Slim. 5.75mm for a 5.200MAH battery phone. It is an exception, yes, but it is the proof that it is possible to launch phones with large batteries and record thicknesses. They are not alone. The next stone on the road to the ultra-decaded mobiles will put Apple with its iPhone 17 Air. A phone that, except miracle, will also land with a traditional battery of a fairly content size.

The battery quality in mobiles

I have interviewed enough brand leaders to have something very clear: the battery is one of the characteristics that most influences the purchase of a smartphone. In Europe we seemed doomed to a very specific figure: about 5,000mAh that remained immutable generation after generation. Chinese mobiles have begun to mark a trend with 6,000mahbreaking it in specific cases such as the Redmagic 10 Pro with its 7,000mah or the recent one Honor Power, with 8,000mah. In addition to the clear war in relation to the milliamps-Hora this eagerness for Chinese manufacturers to bring the best batteries goes further: the focus is in their quality and usability. Crazy about capacity. Broken the 6,000th barrier, we published a piece that has not taken long to materialize: one regarding that this roof surpassed, We don’t know where the limit is. Honor has already managed to introduce 8,000mah On a phone with an 8mm thickness, the same of any other traditional smartphone. Realme rises to 10,000mahabsolute madness. From one year to another, the 5,000mAh of the competition have become an obsolete figure, although everything that shines is not gold. A change in industry. That this capacity has been unlocked has a main responsible: the Silicon-Carbon batteries. Here manufacturers have been pioneers by introducing this technology, which allows you to introduce much more energy capacity in the same size. From a time to this part, this type of batteries has become more and more popular, although some manufacturers (including the Chinese) They reserve them for China for a simple reason: costs. Beyond silicon. Longevity is another obsessions for this 2025, and OnePlus is the best example. His OnePlus 13t It is able to function without using battery, but electric current, when plugged in the current. This function, which we already saw in the past in Redmagic mobiles (and Sony already flirted with it in some Xperia), is ideal to preserve the life of the battery on the scenario that suffers the most: when it is connected to the current making discharge cycles. A perfect ally. A good part of the responsibility in these advances has it Catlone of the giants in the battery industry (mainly in the industrial and electric car spheres). In recent years, Catl has collaborated with manufacturers such as Realme for the joint development of batteries, betting on silicon-carbon as material. A dart to the rest of the manufacturers. The 6,000 (or more) MAH are becoming a standard, and now the glove will have to pick it up the rest of manufacturers outside China. Betting on this type of batteries is not cheap, but launching a terminal with a 5,000mAh battery will begin to become a competitive disadvantage for the rest.

“Second -hand mobiles”

The week starts with an oxygen ball for consumer technology manufacturers. Trump has approved A 90 -day extension for electronic devicesreleasing Apple and other great manufacturers of the 125% tariff imposed on China. The United States has made it clear that it is a temporary measure, so this changing scenario will follow its frantic rhythm in the coming weeks. This means that, finished the pause and if it does not end up reaching agreements, the prices of consumer electronics as we know it are destined to change. If companies cannot be profitable in a key market like the United States, the margins are wobble. In the hands of exceptions. There was a very clear name when applying possible tariff exemptions: Apple. The Trump administration movement would deeply hurt a company whose supply chain, despite diversification efforts, It was located mainly in China. An iphone of 2,300 dollarsa production chain staggering and uncertainty about the product strategy and a second worldwide manufacturer also damaged: Samsung and 46% tariff to Vietnam. A scenario that made it inevitable that a scenario of strong price increases be drawn. No one breathes calmly. Trump’s measures are temporary, and the 10% global tariff could change in just a few hours or days. Be that as it may, with the current cards on the table, the 90 -day exemption does not change the final photo: companies will have to diversify and move token as quickly as possible to demociate their production from China as soon as possible. There is a clear winner in this storm of possible (and more than probable) price increases in Spain: The second hand. A market that has been taking special strength in our country for years, and in which an even more bunder of consumer electronics would mean a boom. Spain and the second hand. In Spain We bought less and less new mobilesand the first week of the month is a peak of notable activity for Platforms like Wallapop. Buy used is not just buying individuals, platforms such as Back Market They have been playing for years, especially in our country. The Product demand used is upwith the iPhone as one of the main protagonists is Smartphone territory. The used iPhone, a global icon. The iPhone is the king of the second -hand market not only in Spain, but worldwide. In addition to being the reference smartphone FOR GENERATION Z It is, technically, the telephone that best ages the market, both for the constant Rhythm of updates as for him Premeditated excess power with which he has everyday tasks. But it is not alone. Recorded companies and second -hand platforms are an access road for the economic product, How much works in Spain (Xiaomi), even more.

If the question is “how tariffs are going to affect the price of mobiles”, none of the answers is optimistic

If you are wondering if the phones are going to rise in price in this scenario of Tariff warthe most honest answer in a “we don’t know.” But the most predictable “is practically impossible not to do so.” Apple and Samsung, two of the main names in the middle of this storm, They can completely move the current price photography as we know it. Although the phones from China can better alleviate the storm, the tariff war will also have an inevitable impact on its strategy. So if you were doubting to renew or non -device waiting for this conflict to be resolved, doing so is no longer a bad idea. The Apple case. Apple is, by far, The most affected manufacturer of this commercial war. Trump is convinced that it is possible to achieve 100% national manufacturing, but this is nothing more than a utopia. Apple has been with a strong agency for China for years to manufacture its devices, although trying to Diversify production chain betting on countries like India or Vietnam. Despite this, 80% of the iPhone continue to manufacture in China, a figure that will simply inevitable that Apple does not raise prices if you want to remain profitable. In a 54% tariff scenario, it was already raised as unassumable to absorb part of them to minimize the rise. With a 104% Apple tariff you need to move a file in another direction: get the manufacture of China. The Samsung case. Samsung is the most affected Asian firm by the commercial war, although the having moved the production chain mainly to Vietnam It will help you partially alleviate the situation. But there is no miracle: Samsung no longer manufactures in China, but Vietnam is also in the sight of Tru The company has been betting on this territory for almost 20 years, having minimized its dependence with China. However, the Vietnam tariff is 46%, the third highest after China and Cambodia. The US case. In the United States the photo is complicated for every national manufacturer that manufactures outside the country, such as Qualcomm. This semiconductor giant delegates to TSMC (Taiwan) the manufacture of its chips. Inevitable increases. These two cases are the most extreme, drawing a more than possible scenario of global ups. Except Milagro, it seems impossible to assume a 104 and 46% tariff in imported products from China and Vietnam to the United States, a situation that can only be solved by rethinking the product strategy in the rest of the markets. Moving production chain outside these countries is not profitable either. If Apple, Samsung and the rest of the manufacturers have been focusing on Vietnam or India for years, it is due to the cost of their qualified workforce. Produce outside and keep prices is pure science fiction. Chinese mobiles. Chinese manufacturers have been with a very clear strategy in the United States for years: not selling mobiles in the United States. Only some names such as OnePlus, TCL or Motorola sound with some force in the country, especially in the case of Motorola (property of the China Lenovo), third manufacturer there. Saving the Motorola case, with mainly China manufacturing and a little flattering scenario if you want to continue importing products from there, Xiaomi, Oppo, Vivo or Huawei do not impact this measure so directly. They are manufacturers that have been focused on both their local market and markets outside the United States. With overwhelming success, by the way. What will the climbs will be. The question we would all want to answer, and the one that will mark a new photograph in the global smartphones market. For years, the price of the iPhone has depended on the strategy in the United States plus the corresponding taxes and fees to be paid by bringing it to other countries. Apple will have more than complicated to maintain its historical rate of $ 999 for the pro model, a strategy that It would affect the global price. The rise in the United States, however, does not have to move exactly to other markets. The price of the iPhone will have to adapt to the new Apple calculations. Some in which you will need to juggle your margins so as not to cool the demand. An inevitable situation. The problem, despite the slightest tariff, is identical for Samsung. It faces a global readjustment scenario to alleviate the situation in the United States, where It is currently the second manufacturer. The situation of the rest of the manufacturers does not seem much better. Although Chinese manufacturers do not sell their mobiles in the United States, there is the presence of televisions, monitors, home products and more technologies. The doubt is whether they will absorb this impact by increasing the price in products of these categories, or if they will bet on a generalized increase, included smartphones (something very sweet, by sales volume of this segment), to square their accounts. Demand as a key. A basic law of the free market is that there is no price increase without demand. Manufacturers face a more than complex scenario: they need to raise prices to remain profitable, but consumers may not be willing to accept them. The smartphones market has been facing constant uploadsboth in devices prices and in The components and logistics costs. However, the Consumer tolerance margin It seems to be reaching its limit. We still do not know what the roof through which buyers are willing. Tariffs aim to bring us the answer.

The US tariffs are a weapon of mass destruction in the Tech industry. Except for Chinese mobiles

The 104% tariff Chinese tax By the Trump administration it will shake the foundations of the smartphone industry. Apple and Samsungthe two great actors in the sector, base a good part of their manufacturing strategy in countries especially penalized by these new measures. However, Chinese mobile phone manufacturers could better overcome the blow. Thanks to a strategy focused for years in international expansion and markets outside the United States, their direct exposure to the impact of these tariffs aims to be considerably less. 104%. USA He has officialized a 104% tariff to imports from China, carrying The commercial war between both countries to its peak maximum and leading us to a night of movement in the markets. The consequences have been immediate: Fall of almost 5% in Bag for Apple generalized in the rest of great technology, with the uncertainty of a new commercial scenario that will shake its current strategies. Chinese and United States manufacturers. For Apple and Samsung Import products manufactured in China or Vietnam to the United States will involve an increase in simply unassumable costs without price increases. A case that barely applies Chinese manufacturers, since they have never had too much presence in the country. Giants such as Xiaomi, Oppo or Vivo do not sell smartphones in the United States. However, OnePlus, TCL and Motorola (Property of the China Lenovo) do have a presence in the territory. In fact, Lenovo is the third smartphone manufacturer in the United States. The Lenovo case. Motorola and Lenovo are in the most compromised situation after the entry into force of tariffs. The manufacture of its devices is focused on countries such as China, Brazil and India. Importing the United States with 104% tariffs is simply unfeasible for the company, which would have to move its production chain outside China to survive in the United States. Although not even maintaining a diversified production would be sufficient to partially overcome the impact of tariffs. The Type imposed on Brazil is 10% (the minimum threshold), while that of India amounts to 26%. A 10% tariff is assumed through a light rise hybrid strategy and cost absorption. One of almost 30% requires more drastic measures. The consequences for the rest. On the side of OnePlus and TCL, despite being Chinese manufacturers, they have been making production to countries like India and Brazil for years, diversifying strategy for their product assembly. A diversification that is not enough to overcome tariffs, since the bulk of manufacturing remains in China. The only solution? Move in record time the production outside your native country and centralize efforts in external factories. A withdrawal on time. The most likely scenario after the implementation of tariffs is the disappearance of the little Asian trace that remains in the United States. With the exception of Motorola/Lenovo, this has never been a market to be conquered by China, a position that aims to reaffirm after the crossed commercial war. Beyond mobile phones, companies like Xiaomi, which They sell household products and monitors In the United States, they will have it difficult to maintain presence in the country without raising prices abruptly. A global impact. If manufacturers such as Motorola renounce the US market, with the consequent loss of income that this would entail, an increase in prices globally seems inevitable to alleviate the effects of losing presence in a key territory. Companies such as OnePlus, TCL or Xiaomi, with a minimum presence there, would have it easier to absorb part of this small loss and not end up moving costs to consumers outside the US. Despite this, not everything is so simple. Although Chinese brands do not sell mobiles significantly in the US market, they do have a presence in other categories such as televisions, monitors and home devices. The unknown is whether they will choose to compensate for the blow by increasing prices only in those lines, or if they will end up moving the extra cost to their entire catalog, including smartphones. THE WAR OF COMPONENTS. The main Chinese manufacturers use American components, such as Qualcomm processors or Corning Gorilla Glass crystals. At the moment, this situation would be under doubt, since Qualcomm subcontracts the production of its chips to Taiwanese giants such as TSMC or Samsung Foundry (South Korea). Something similar happens with manufacturers such as Corning, which diversifies production with plants in Asia and Europe to meet global demand. Given that US sanctions They prevent American memoirs from selling their most sophisticated integrated circuits to their Chinese clients, China does not have it easy to reduce dependence on the United States.
