One of the most important factors when considering a new smartphone is its battery life. And while usage behavior will vary from person to person, there are several ways to create a standard form of measurement.
Higher battery capacity does not always equate to longer battery life. In this chart, we used PC Mark Battery Test to gather the approximated battery life of each of the smartphones included in this list (recent update is April 1, 2017).

* Update: We’re also including phablets and tablets into the list. We will also add our standard video loop test as a secondary data set.
We used PC Mark Battery Test as it is more or less standardized and simulates normal usage behavior like web browsing, photo and video playback, gaming and file manipulation. The resulting time is not exact but merely a representative of their relative performance with each other.
We will be updating and using this chart every month to include more devices as we test them.

How about THL5000?
RD says:
How about Firefly Mobile Allure 64 LTE?
Phillip says:
Interesting.. nagulat ako sa ZF2, nasa bandang taas pero kung magcomment ang mga owners sobrang bilis daw ma-lowbatt
nyayay says:
truelalu
try niyong pumunta sa zenfone forum ng asus halos reklamo sa battery ang nandun. totoo naman kahit sa review ng iba
jr says:
im currently using zf2 ze551ml more or less 7 hrs of streaming using wifi, 5hrs lang pag naka data
Basa basa din pag may time says:
Baka naman ze 551ml ang inutukoy mo?
Zenfone laser kasi nakalagay sa pangalawang spot. Talagang matipid sa battery dahil 410 sd ang procie at 720p lang ang reso kaya matagal malowbat
Lenard says:
eh asan ang z3 compact?
Abe Olandres says:
Just added it, you can check now.
Yazzy says:
Can you guys add other tests for battery life like video loop playback for example? This is a real world test and can give us a better idea on how long the battery of the device really last.
Abe Olandres says:
Yes, we are also compiling video loop test as well. Will add that to future updates.
Marvin says:
Where are some models of Cloudfone thrill?
Abe Olandres says:
We’re working on them. Takes about 8-10 hours to do each battery test.
hope says:
Talagang di man lang nakapasok ang myphone. Myphone Uno user ako tagal ng battery life kahit mag sound maghapon at nka wifi ako hanggang 5pm na yun. Talagang siguro may galit ang Yugatech sa Myphone.
Abe Olandres says:
We’re working on them. Takes about 8-10 hours to do each battery test.
Christian says:
Can you include Windows Phone at iPhones in your other articles? Sayang, it would be also interesting to see how those phones compare to others.
JG says:
you should include meizu m1 note
romeocharlie says:
I’d say mas reliable ang loop test na ginagawa nina yugatech than pcmark.
deceiving talaga yung ZF2, actual users ang ranting bout its battery life..
BTT: you can add Xiaomi Mi3 and Mi4, although old models but worth the comparison.
Tan says:
Ung Flare S3 Power… bakit di kasama sa ranks?
Tnerb Semaj Zednem says:
Baka under benchmark test pa. Matagal kac ma lowbat :)
bern says:
Could you add Meizu M2 Note and Sony XPeria Z3 Compact?
Jes says:
Lenovo P70 scored 10 hours+ while K80 only 6 hours+ with same 4,000mah battery. Bakit kaya?
Nandra says:
sure, u can compare each other. K80 with 5,5″ and also FHD.
Yul says:
I read on Engadget that Samsung Note 3 still is number 1 when it comes to battery life.
adam says:
please add “Infinix hot note” for low price battery comparison
Jay says:
Nexus 5 user here. Mine lasts 6hrs with some internet use.
jp says:
Where’s the LG G Pro 2?
jtin says:
nakakatuwa naman po my nag rereview ng mga local phone tulad ng Cherry Mobile at myphone keep it up po maganda ang site na ito sa mga nag hahanap ng budget phone na matagal ang battery life
Ronald says:
Nice info.
Vincee says:
Cherry Mobile Fuze S user here. My smartphone should be included in this list.
yadzkie says:
LG G3?
Kofty says:
Anong baseline ginagamit nyo for the tests? Brightness? Volume? Wifi on? Data on? Etc.
Abe Olandres says:
50% brightness, 0% volume, Airplane Mode.
gosocialpartners says:
how about sony xperia z2?
Jhandie says:
sana my full review ng O+ ultra
karl says:
cherry mobile s3 power/fuze s pls :)
brylle dave says:
What about the lenovo A5000 4000mah?
A follower of your blog says:
Misleading.. Like you said, it does not necessarily mean that the higher the mAh the longer the battery… Why not do a survey and ask people which phone they think lasts longer?
A follower of your blog says:
Hahaha… Bias… Pinipili lang ang mga positive comments… Yung mga negative deleted… No wonder maraming nagsasabi na bias ang media
bambi lee says:
try samsung e6
baconbriefs says:
Interested in the MAIA Smart Tab but its position on that list is discouraging, lol.
Phone Collector says:
Please add Flare 4, s4 and s4 plus!
Reniel Estanislao says:
What about Flare S3 Power?
WC says:
My Cherry Mobile Flare S3 Power (The newer version with Lollipop pre-installed) logged 12 hours 46 minutes.
I don’t know how Yugatech test their devices, but I tested it with the following parameters: 50% brightness, Volume at max (it only plays during one portion of the test), no SIM, airplane mode).
Hope Yugatech could test this unit too, so that they can add it to the list, it’s the cheapest model with 4000 maH battery and with a decent CPU too.
aa says:
m1 note?
Crimson says:
Can you add Samsung Galaxy Note 4 N910S please? Thanks YugaTech
Issei says:
Sir Abe, maybe if you can add the prices of each phone so they can decide more on what to buy.. :-)
Aeon Ranger says:
Dami pang wala dito. Nokia and Windows Phones are not listed…
twocentbox says:
As the title says, Android smartphones only.
huazyness says:

how about Firefly Mobile Intense Power?
Sephiroth says:
Pls update this list including the Acer liquid Z630 and Acer Z630S
mel gaza says:
how about the zenfone 3 max ??
NIlz says:
So this means that Mediatek-based devices are really inefficient devices.
mel gaza says:
how about the new asus zen 3 Laser ? :-)
jl says:
how about oukitel k10000? Reviews say that it lasts for a week. This phone has a 10000 mah battery. I really want to see. I’m sure you would be excited to test such phone.
orlando says:
wheres alcatel pixi 4 plus power?
Win ong says:
Hi why is zenfone 3 zoom not in the list? I’m curious to see how it does as zenfone 3 can manage to get 13hrs with 3000 mah because of the snapdragon 625.
Abe Olandres says:
We’re still working on it. The app crashes every time we try.
Win ong says:
Ah ok thanks abe, is there something wrong with the zenfone 3 zoom thats why it crashes? Please also include the f3 plus. Im also curious how it fares against the rest. Im checking back on this article every now and then for reference. Great job guys. Hope u keep it up!
Abe Olandres says:
We’re still working on it. I think it’s a firmware issue that we’ve also encountered with a few other devices before.
Win ong says:
What is wrong with the zenfone 3 zoom thats why Pcmark battery test crashes? I read it in yugatech review too. Please also include the f3 plus. Im curious how it fares against the competition. Great job on this article by the way. It was very informative.
Win ong says:
Ahh, well looking forward for the next update of this article. Im looking at these two phones for my next smartphone upgrade. Anyway, more power to u guys ????
Ren says:
Hi Abe,
I’ve tried it on my S8+ and gave me a result of 6hrs and 7mins, with full brightness on and everything else turned off. I think it’s too low, should my brightness be set somewhere in the middle?
I’m really disappointed on how it performed given that some of the tests I’ve seen goes beyond 8hrs.
Don’t know if something’s wrong with the phone, but it’s only 2 weeks old.
-Ren
Ren says:
Hi Abe,
Also follow up question,
Can you share me the settings used when you tested the s8+?
Wanted to try it again with your settings as my basis.
Thanks.
Abe Olandres says:
50% brightness, 0% volume, airplane mode
Nisar says:
