"Start"? Battery power is one of the primary complaints people make about their phones. It's been a priority for... ever.
While it's one of the primary complaints (after purchase), the market would seem to suggest that people prefer smaller/thinner phones in terms of purchasing decisions.

#23Yes! Another arbitrary metric that pokemon go passes an arbitrary company. We get it, Pokemon Go is popular. Seesh.
Why so snarky? Don't you think it's an interesting phenomena?
I'd be interested to see articles detailing technical difficulties that they may have overcome, but I've seen way too many articles just saying "Pokemon GO now has more X than Y".

#24Can we have a moratorium on Pokemon Go posts? It is getting really annoying, especially since submissions regarding it have absolutely no value.
Flag and hide is the way to go.
Just hide if you're not personally interested. IMO flagging that would be an abuse of the facility and just wasting moderator time.

My prediction for the next big thing? The AR equivalent of snapchat filters that you superimpose over yourself, your friends or enemies, visible to people whose cameras are running the AR snapchat app. Unfortunately, adverts.

#29I would be very happy if Niantec releases an in-depth write up on the how the backend was implemented and what measures they took to make it scale to handle this kind of traffic. I don't care much for the game, but details of why the servers weren't (aren't?) able to handle the traffic interests me immensely.
