# Durable E-Ink Smartphones The E Ink Android Phone Comes with a Battery Life of Up to a Week By Simal Yilmaz | Published 2013-04-25 | Tech Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/e-ink-android References: [springwise](http://www.springwise.com/with-e-ink-display-android-phone-aims-offer-week-battery-life/) & [eink](http://www.eink.com/) Constantly having low battery is undoubtedly the most prominent downfalls of having a smartphone, which is why the [E Ink Android screen](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tcl-nxtpaper-60-ultra) has been introduced. The screen display allows the phone users to use only a fraction of the battery life that is used up with a regular smartphone screen. It lets the phone user keep their phone uncharged for up to one week, which is a time period we had been accustomed to when everyone had older phones. Until smartphones are sold on the market with killer battery lives, I am personally more than happy to use the electronic ink display technology on my smartphone. This is a great opportunity for all smartphone users who are constantly on the go and still value regular phone uses such as phoning, texting and e-mailing more than the new ones. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 2.3/10 - Popularity: 9% | Activity: 51% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 70% men, 30% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Tech](https://www.trendhunter.com/tech) > [Mobile](https://www.trendhunter.com/mobile) ## Key Themes ### Why This Trend Is Growing - **Durable E-ink Smartphones:** The introduction of E Ink Android screens in smartphones provides a longer battery life, addressing a common consumer pain point. ### Industries Being Reshaped - **Smartphone Manufacturing:** Smartphone manufacturers can integrate E Ink screens into their devices to offer a unique selling point and attract consumers looking for extended battery life. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Eye-Friendly E-Ink Smartphones](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bigme-hibreak.md) - [Low-Cost E Ink Smartphones](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bigme-hibreak-s.md) - [E-Ink Display Smartphones](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hisense-a9.md) - [Keyboard-Intact E-Ink Smartphones](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-minimalist-phone.md) - [Pro-Grade E-Ink Smartphones](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bigme-hibreak-pro.md) - [E-Ink Display Smartphone Cases](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/xcool-inkplay.md) - [Reduced Connectivity Mobile Devices](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/minimal-phone.md) - [Simplistic Distraction-Free Phones](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lofone.md) - [Digital E Ink Typwriters](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/zerowriter-ink.md)
