Lithium-ion Batteries vs Lithium-Polymer Batteries; what's the difference between them and which one's better? Let's compare.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
➡️Li-ion
🔋Pros:
✅Cheaper to manufacture and easily obtainable
✅Have higher charging cycles, so last longer - 2 to 3 years
✅Tend to be slightly heavier than Li-Po batteries
✅Deliver more power in a smaller form factor than Li-Po of similar size.
🪫Cons:
❌More reactive/unstable
❌Don't withstand heat that well
❌Do not support superfast charging wattage
❌Liquid electrolyte can cause leakages or battery swelling.
❌Higher passive discharge rate
➡️Li-Po
🔋Pros:
✅More stable and can tolerate higher temperatures
(thanks to being encased in a hard or soft-shell).
Makes them safer too.
✅Can easily handle higher charging wattage, hence ideal for fast charging
✅Relatively safer than Li-ion as it uses a gel-like electrolyte instead of a liquid one, so no chance of leakage. (Doesn't swell up easily either)
✅Discharge quite slowly when not in use compared to Li-ion
(but it depends on the device and background apps)
🪫Cons:
❌Bulkier than Li-ion
❌Aren't as easily obtained (but that has certainly changed a lot)
❌Lesser lifespan and lower charging cycles than Li-ion (because of their gel electrolyte.

Actually lithium polymer batteries have longer life charging cycles if you charge them at the same voltage as lithium ion being 4.35v instead of 4.45/4.5v. I've tested lots of devices and lithium ion can barely hit 600 cycles before losing voltage storage capacity, lithium polymer can withstand more than 800 cycles while charging at 67w 4.45v. no idea about 120w or more, testing now a dual battery device with 150w

The power delivery part is completely wrong. Lipo batteries although less energy dense, can provide A LOT more current than li ion. High performance racing drone lipo batteries can provide up to 150C current burst. That’s 150x the battery capacity, if we’re talking about a 1200mah cell, that’s 180A of current. Li-ion on the other hand can at most provide 40C, that’s 48A for a same capacity battery. That’s why racing drones will use lipo while long range drones (much weaker) will use li ion batteries.

Battery degradation happens via charging cycles. More cycles (0 to 100%), faster degradation. Also, temperature matters. Higher temps will degrade lithium (both ion and polymer) batteries quicker. Overall, for faster charging and longer use, lithium polymer might be better and safer.

Personally, i prefer batteries that last long and have a longer overall life cycles. So i guess that puts me in the Li ion group. Specifically when it comes to phones. I usually have my Samsung phone on battery protection mode, because i would like my phone last me 3-4 years if possible. Fast charging at 15-25watts is plenty sufficient for me, anything slower is definitely a no no for sure. I rarely ever fall into situations where i need faster charging than that. Also, that would require me buying a whole bunch of very fast chargers to make sure i always have one available when i need it.. nah, thats a pass for me.

from my experience Li-Po really do degrade faster than Li-ion probably around 250 cycles would equal to Li-ion 600-700 cycles same level of degradation. this could just be an anamoly as my sample size is not too big. Li-Po when new, is overall better IMO, but i think the reason apple and samsung still stick with Li-ion is mainly the slower degradation. Price sure too, but hey they don't wanna be known for selling phones that battery lasts for only 1-2 years either. 2-3 maybe.

The danger with LIPO is that you cant really store them for long periods without using a trickle charger. Lion has much slower self discharge rate and can still be used if voltage drops. Lipo's can swell, explode and degrade much faster over time. If voltage drops below 3Volt in a lipo it causes permanent damage and shouldnt be reused. So keeping a phone with lipo battery as spare phone incase of damage is not a good choice. Lipo is terrible for long term storage and can cause house fires. Your home insurance wont cover anything either incase of a Lipo fire...

Lithium ion batteries actually lasts longer than 2 or 3 years. They can last 5 to 7 years. Generally a Lithium ion battery retains 80 percent of its storage capacity after 500 to 2000 charges. My advice is if you are going to spend a lot of money on a high end cell phone. Purchase one with the largest capacity battery. One that's preferably 5000mah. This way when the battery is reduced by 20 percent due to hundreds of charge cycles. You still have a decent capacity left for phone to remain in service longer.

Li-Ion battery smartphones are a huge turn off for me this time as I tried Li-Po 4 years ago and my opinions never changed at all ever since. As if they just tried to make excuses to reduce their phone cost because Li-Po is said to be more expensive compared to Li-Ion.

What mobile phone manufacturers use Lithium Polymer besides Xiaomi ?

@TheHopelessGeek 4 ай бұрын
My Honor phone seems to have it, but now they've moved to an even better Silicon Carbon battery tech. I don't know why the rest of the industry is lagging behind. Besides them, I believe phones like Oppo and OnePlus may also use them as they deliver superfast charging.

Pros of Lithium Polymer (pouch cells): LiPos hold the highest voltage under load of all lithium batteries so they perform well in high amp draw applications LiPo batteries come in many different form factors so they can be built to fit lots of applications Maintains lower temperatures under high discharge Cons of Lithium Polymer (pouch cells): LiPos are more prone to thermal runaway when punctured or damaged LiPo batteries provide around half the life cycles of a Li-Ion Can be discharged down to 3v per cell Pros of Lithium ion (cylindrical cells): Li-ion batteries are higher energy density (Wh/kg) which allows for longer runtimes and lighter weight Lithium-ion batteries are safer than lithium polymer because of the metal enclosure Can be discharged down to 2.5v per cell Cons of Lithium ion (cylindrical cells): In high amp draw applications, they will have lower voltage under load compared to lithium polymer They are round cells in specific sizes which can create some limitations to fit in certain applications They tend to hold higher temperatures during and especially after performing a higher discharge rate In summary, if you are looking for the highest voltage under load (punch or top speed) then choose a LiPo. If you are looking for the highest capacity for the weight (energy density), choose Li-ion. If safety is a big concern, then choose Li-ion.

I still have Samsung S9 plus phone... Near 5 years... Battery is still good... For example if I want to buy Z Fold 5 who have Li-polymer battery, what is the good in that if I must give 2.000 euros for phone where I lose battery in 2-3 years and must replace battery... I think is stupid to give big money for 2 years enjoying... Conclusion is this: I must every 3 years change flagship phone if I don't want to open phone and replace battery when battery s weak...
