Ashlei Temena’s family trip to Disneyland last Thanksgiving break turned into a nightmare when her smartphone battery hit empty.
因為智能手機沒電了,阿什萊·特米納(Ashlei Temena)一家上個感恩節的迪斯尼樂園之旅變成了噩夢。
Ms. Temena, a San Francisco support technician, had gotten separated from her family and realized she had no way to find anyone. Instead of riding roller coasters, she wandered around searching for the group — eventually locating them four hours later watching fireworks.
特米納是一位舊金山的技術支持工程師,她在旅途中和家人走散后,發現沒有辦法找到他們了。她沒有坐過山車,而是到處尋找家人,后來過了四個小時,看煙火的時候才找到他們。
“I wanted to throw my phone on the ground by the end of the day,” Ms. Temena said.
“那天到最后我真想把手機往地上摔,”特米納說。
Many consumers can relate. Despite the leaps forward in mobile phone technology with crisp, clear screens and faster chips, batteries have made only sluggish progress. That has propelled a desire for longer battery life to the top of the list of factors considered by consumers when they purchase smartphones, according to a 2014 survey by the research firm IDC.
很多消費者都會有同感。盡管手機技術的飛躍帶來了清晰的顯示屏和快速的芯片,電池仍然是唯一的滯后環節。因此,根據調查公司IDC于2014年進行的一項調查,“電池續航更長”成了消費者購買智能手機時的首要因素之一。
