Smartphones have become an indispensable part of our lives. Today, we use these devices for everything from basic communication to financial transactions, which is why they are always within reach. However, regardless of the brand, the weakest and slowest developing part of our phones is undoubtedly the battery. Although manufacturers compensate for this situation with ever-increasing fast-charging technologies, it is not accurate to say that battery capacities have increased much in the last 10 years. Recently, a Galaxy A32 user modified his phone and increased its battery capacity to 30,000mAh. Here are the details…
Galaxy A32 modified with 30,000mAh battery
While most smartphones have a battery capacity of around 5,000mAh, a Reddit user, Downtown_Cranberry44, has modified his Samsung Galaxy A32 5G to have a whopping 30,000mAh battery. This modification involves replacing the internal battery with an external pack made up of six Samsung 50E cells, each with a capacity of 5,000mAh, wired in parallel.
Although the modified phone has an impressive battery capacity, it comes at a cost. The external battery pack is bulky, weighing over 450 grams, which is more than twice the original weight of the device. The modified phone also has multiple charging ports, including two USB-A, one USB-C, micro USB, and Lightning ports. It is possible to say that this port variety has surpassed even most modern laptops.
The 30,000mAh battery reportedly took seven hours to fully charge, and the battery lasted up to two days under heavy usage. However, the modified phone no longer recognizes the external battery pack and always reports 1% battery level. While the modified Samsung Galaxy A32 5G may not be visually appealing, it shows that some users are willing to go to great lengths to improve their smartphone’s battery life. As smartphone technology continues to evolve, it remains to be seen whether manufacturers will prioritize battery capacity in their designs.
It’s worth remembering that don’t try this at home. This modification is just a fun project for experts and enthusiasts and an accident caused by amateur craftsmanship can even endanger your life.
