That's okay. I take advantage of the high resolution screen by having readable and smooth-looking text, but don't keep it small.

The problem is I can't control the financial factors on it - it is not from my company and nor my product. I can't make others acting as quick as I do.

And I do not benefit from it, I can't spend too much time as my own product.

But I will do my best getting the product out for sure.

Are these any good?

I heard the Pi doesn't have any serious power management.

It depends on the intended usage...like anything.
From what I have gleaned... 10 hrs standby...
5-6 with average usage...
Adequate....
I am going to be doing a diy before spring...
I will let you know my results...

5-6 hours average usage is not that bad...not bad at all!

top heavy power consumptive and intensive application(s) (I would assume) would drive that average down.

properly installed kodi (used) would drain it quickly (I am sure)
proper telephony would drain it quickly (I am sure)
speaking of which...
a few things I noted were that ...the pi 3 b is on the whole considered "almost" to the point of desktop replacement...(as per statements from those who blind-ran applications in a plug and play fashion.....which says volumes unto itself...)
the only things negative I have found thus far...
is that:
some have noted the media players have issues playing film ..
some have noted that youtube playback has issues with speed of delivery without stuttering ...and tearing...

(yet again...these were the mentions from "open-box plug-and-playing" ....blind running applications ...without any kind of optimization, tweaking or testing.... to see how better run said programs.)

(So yes...
that being said...)

I would safely say that handing such devices to pretty much any of our community would most likely net a "good to go" verdict after enough testing and tweaking ...

Even with truly heavy use ...as long as it can make 3-4 hours before swapping batteries...
then that is bearable.

That's is what I was about to say!

At least we have the battery.
I got for US$45 an ANKER powerCore 20100mAh. Actually there is lower price at Amazon I can't wait to use it in a raspberry 3, when I got time to buy and setup a raspberry pi3

A bit bigger, with a stylus and taking standard AA batteries like the good ole HP 95LX and I would buy it in a jiffy:



Something like that should definitely be possible to DIY.
