Why are batteries in phones always measured in mAh instead of Wh like for example notebooks?

mAh is a bigger number than Wh and looks better on packages.

Wait until you hear about µAh. This is the one secret the engineering team doesn’t want the marketing department to know.

Lets use coulomb hours or electron-per-second-hours.

LOL, electrons per second hour is such a cursed unit, it’s going to take some effort to make it worse.

Why are we are waiting for the second hour? Why the hell don't they make something with electrics per first hour?

The machine blinks on and off. You’re lucky they didn’t pick the third hour.

You wanna talk about inflating numbers?
