The present application provides a battery cell, a battery, and an electrical device, and relates to the field of batteries. The battery cell includes a shell, the shell has a wall portion, the wall portion includes a weak portion, and the weak portion is configured to be destroyed when the battery cell releases internal pressure. An outer surface of the wall portion has a center point. A maximum distance between a projection of the weak portion on the outer surface of the wall portion and the center point is a, the minimum radial dimension of the outer surface of the wall portion is A, and a and A satisfy: a≤0.4A. The radial direction refers to a direction passing through the center point. By setting a≤0.4A, the weak portion is arranged at a region, with a relatively low stiffness, of the wall portion. When the battery cell releases the internal pressure, the region undergoes a large deformation under the action of gas, and therefore the weak portion arranged at the region is easily damaged. Under the condition of the same fracture initiation pressure, the thickness of the weak portion arranged at the region can be larger. When the battery cell is normally used, the weak portion has a stronger ability to resist external impact, so as to reduce the risk of the weak portion being damaged prematurely.
