That OUKITEL WP35 S is a beast. I guess it's not for gaming, but man I can go to war with it.
China invents, the US tariffs and Europe regulates. some things just don't change.
Whilst I get the idea the implementation is currently unusable:
So I filtered for "Battery user-replacable" and found 117 smartphones (out of ~500). This is a straight up lie because all these phones are glued together (nearly all are IP68) meaning that you need some special tools.
It lacks a lot of phone models. I couldn't find any Google Pixel or Fairphone.
The "Battery endurance in cycles" (number ofย charge/discharge cycles a battery can withstand until its usable electrical capacity has reached 80ย % of its rated capacity) attribute is completely broken: It never seems to exceed 15? I had phones for years that withstood hundreds/thousands of battery cycles and the battery still nearly behaved like it's new and you're telling me the maximum number is 15??? Did you guys just stop testing after 15?
Also "with regard to energy labelling" what is this labelling about? Energy? Ok then why are there values about the phones "Repeated free fall reliability" or IP protection inside there?
The whole thing looks way to intransparent and useless for the average phone buyer and definetly needs some improvement...
General labelling about repairability/phone lifetime (e.g. receives updates for X years, replacement parts are avilable for X years, can install another OS, can replace battery without external tools, etc) without a overall score that merges all aspects would be a lot better and useful IMHO.
The โbattery endurance in cyclesโ is the weirdest thing to me. Even Li ion batteries from 20 years ago could achieve 100+ charge cycles before <80% capacity is hit. Fifteen (or lower) is suspect for the testing method or concerning for the engineering.
