Now this is a phone that should give you at least a full day’s charge… and very likely at least three. GizmoChina brings us word that Chinese manufacturer Innos has just released a new smartphone that features a huge 6,000mAh battery, which just happens to be the biggest battery we’ve ever seen on a smartphone. Innos says this will deliver power that lasts between three to five days per charge depending on use.

“The manufacturer uses a unique ‘Double cell structure’ technology,” GizmoChina informs us. “It comprises of two batteries, one being an internal carrying the 2480mAh capacity and another being an external replaceable 3520mAh juice pack. What is more, this great techallows user to swap the external battery without shutting down the device.”

Other specs for the device include a 5.2-inch 1080p display, a Snapdragon 615 1.8GHz octa-core processor, a 16-megapixel rear-facing camera, a 5-megapixel front-facing camera, 3 GB of RAM, 32GB of storage and Android 5.0 Lollipop.
