Philips Xenium X520 supports AAA Batteries

Philips has announced a new Xenium device known as X520, which provides power backup using standard lithium AAA batteries. Philips is not really renowned for making high end mobile devices but it does introduce devices that provide more battery power than any other mobile devices available in the market. The X520 itself supports up to 8 hours of talk time and up to a month of standby time but thanks to a new technology called 'Backupower', it can provide up to 2.5 hours of additional talk time and up to one week of additional standby time with a standard lithium AAA battery.

Other features include a 2 Megapixel camera, stereo Bluetooth with A2DP support, FM radio with RDS, Music Player and a microSD memory card slot. Quite impressive I must say!
