iPhone 5K : The phone that never dies

Problem: Development of new technology inevitably enforces mechanic gadgets consuming more energy. Yes, your phone is doing so.


Idea: New technology should not aim to develop only cool contents, updated systems or smart utilities but also elongate your enjoyable moment with your phone through the everlasting phone battery power.
