Autonomy is one of the pending subjects of many of today's great mobile teams. Samsung he knows it, and even though his S III it already showed a remarkable performance in that section, in this fourth generation the inclusion of the chip 5 Exynos Octa is closely related to the matter. However, these tests show the performance of the battery with a Snapdragon 600, for the other model we will have to wait a bit. Let's see how it went.
GSM Arena continues to show us the battery tests of some of the most interesting devices today and, if we were previously able to tell you about the results of the Xperia Z or of LG Optimus G Pro, this time it is the turn of the Galaxy S4. As we say, it is the version that works with the chip Qualcomm 4-core precisely the one that will arrive in Spain, at least at first.
The battery of the equipment offers, according to the graph above, almost 14 hours operating on phone calls. If we compare it with the Xperia Z (16 hours), for example, the Galaxy S4 it would be a bit behind, despite initially having a bit more charge (2.600 mAh versus 2.330 mAh). However, we can say that this data equates it to other teams in its range. It manages to stay more or less in the average and surpass the mark of its previous generation by 3,5.
When it comes to navigating the battery Galaxy S4 it will last us 8:42 hours. In this section, you return the coin to the Xperia Z which in its day got a record of 5:39. Here the highest battery capacity of the equipment Samsung is widely noted, despite the different technologies it incorporates Sony to save power on your phablet. The HTC One however, it is the device that stands out the most in this field with an impressive 9:58.
Regarding video playback, the S4 offers 10:16 hours, another excellent mark and above in this case the flagship of HTC and even of iPhone 5, a phone with exceptional autonomy and with a significantly lower pixel density. It also far exceeds Xperia Z, which achieved a fairly discreet record in this section with only 5:39 hours.
As a conclusion, we can enjoy the Galaxy S4 about 63 hours, easily, without charging it, if we carry out each of the aforementioned tasks one hour a day. Good data, no doubt.
