Curve 2: 8,000 mAh in 7.42 millimetres.

An 8,000mAh battery is easy. An 8,000mAh battery in 7.42 millimetres is the whole problem.

Curve 2 is the world's slimmest 8,000mAh phone — a cell that usually forces a thick slab, folded into a curved, 195-gram body you forget you are holding. The 6.78-inch 1.5K 3D curved AMOLED runs at 144Hz and pushes up to 4,500 nits, so it holds up in Indian sun. 45W refills it; SGS 5-Star drop resistance keeps it standing.

The Starship-inspired frame and asymmetrical camera island are not styling for its own sake — they are where the volume went so the battery could stay flat. Structure is the design.

POVA Curve 2 5G launched in India from ₹27,999 (8GB/128GB) and ₹29,999 (8GB/256GB), in Mystic Purple, Storm Titanium and Melting Silver.
