People are often commenting they would take a little extra bulk for longer battery life... well, here you go then!

This dark blue unit measures in at 18mm of thickness, according to Avenir’s spec sheet, but stacking it side by side with a more conventional smartphone, I’d say a more accurate articulation of its thickness would be about 3.5 iPhones. This phone is immense. Or is it technically a battery with a phone in it?

At least put the capacity somewhere in the description, it's 18000 mAh :p

Samsung did put a 5000 mAh into their M20 midranger this year and that phone is only 1mm thicker than the flagships, so I'm sure there's a better middle ground somewhere :D

It's not that insanely large imho. If i've been using my phone a lot and have it plugged into a battery pack, i have one that's similar size to my phone so makes it easier to hold both together, either way that gets to a similar thickness as that 18k mAh phone.

I think they could potentially get to 10k mAh adding a few mm's to the thickness of the phone. ~3k mAh lasts me about a full day, so that would make it a 3 day battery.
