With the arrival of the Friday sale and with Christmas just around the corner, we enter the peak time in the purchase of mobile phones. For many it is time to choose a new smartphone, a process that can be desperate, taking into account the large number of factors that must be analyzed to make the right choice: processor, internal memory, camera, screen … This time We focus on the battery, one of the elements that have the greatest impact on the performance of the device. And knowing which are the current models that offer a better battery, a longer duration, can be of great help in making a decision.
As it has been doing in the last five years, the Organization of Consumers and Users (OCU) commissioned an analysis of the most representative and interesting models on the market to test the real life of the batteries and the time they take to charge.
The conclusions of the OCU report on the evolution of batteries in the last five years:
Batteries are getting better: in 2016 the average battery life of the more than 100 phones analyzed did not reach 22 hours of use; while the phones analyzed between 2020 and July 2021 exceed 30 hours of use. There are even models with a battery life that exceeds two days.
66% more capacity. In the last five years, there has been a significant increase in battery capacity due to the manufacture of larger phones (current mobiles measure an average of 6.5 inches, 1.5 more than the 2016 average). In addition, most of the new models already incorporate an integrated battery that allows adaptation to the internal design of the device to increase its capacity.
Evolution of recharging technology. The recharging time has been reduced by almost half thanks mainly to the fast charge, which allows the battery to be charged in just 2 hours on average. As a sample, this button: charging a 2,500 mAh battery, in 2016 required 2 hours and 42 minutes, while now it would be possible to charge that same battery in just 1 hour and 17 minutes.
