Let’s find out what smartphone comes with the longest battery life so far!

Recently, we have been able to spot a battery life test on expertreviews. They based on many factors such as the phone’s overall batt capacity (which is rated in mAh), screen brightness and resolution. We can see that they did not follow the common thought which is “the higher the mAh rating, the bigger the battery, so phones with bigger mAh capacities should last longer.” Yes, in fact, there are more things to decide how quickly drains the battery.

They examined a lot of handsets and put all the battery scores in one table to help you recognize the king easily. Speaking more specifically, they ran a continuous video playback test. On the other hand, they also set each machine to aeroplane mode, turn off automatic brightness plus sleep settings, and pushed the screen brightness up to 170cd/m2 to check their endurance.

Looking at the table, please note that blue bars are for Android devices, red ones for iOS and green for Windows. Obviously, Android phones account for a big part, which also somehow explains why they are being loved so much nowadays.

And the RESULT is…

And the result is that the new flagship Samsung Galaxy S7 is the true champion in terms of battery life though it just packs a not-very-large 3,000mAh cell. It lasted for 17 hours and 48 minutes. But, Apple iPhone 6S Plus was also the best iOS model when being able to keep running in 14 hours and 58 minutes. Meanwhile, the best Windows phone is Microsoft Lumia 950XL with 13 hours 02 minutes. Once again, congratulations, Sammy! You have proved that the Galaxy S7 is one of the strongest smartphones in the world right now! (Source)
