With the capability of charging by the use of AAA batteries, Philips today announced the Xenium NRG handset.
The new Philips Xenium NRG will be the first commercially available mobile phone capable of taking advantage of Techtium's AAA BackuPower technology. The Xenium NRG is powered by a standard cell phone battery, however, the BackuPower feature enables instant charging of the battery by inserting any type of standard sized AAA battery.
One AAA battery charge is claimed to provide up to 3 hours of extra talk time, and up to 1 week of extra standby time to the Xenium NRG's Li-Ion battery. The Li-Ion battery itself is claimed to offer up to 1 month of standby time and 10 hours of talk time when fully charged.
According to Philips, the new Xenium NRG does not compromise on design and form factor to enable the BackuPower feature.
