Yeah, it was kind of funny how we went through a decade of worrying about phone battery life, finally got it to where we could stop worrying about it, and then all got smartphones--and were back where we started on the battery thing. Worse, most of 'em don't even let you swap batteries, so you can't just carry a spare.
Irony abounds...
