        And if it does increase the effective capacity twofold, that still won’t mean that your phone will actually run twice as long, because we’ll rather just stop optimizing our software so much.

        That will have other advantages, like more features, cheaper apps etc., but it won’t stand out as much.

          Also, chances are doubling the capacity will double the explosion risk. All that energy isn’t coming from nothing, it’s stored as chemicals that really want to release that energy.
