We have faced the Galaxy Note 4 already with all his great rivals in comparative of technical specifications, but we still had to see how it came out standing in the independent autonomy tests, something essential to complete the capacity data of battery and judge in a more realistic way what we can expect from him in this section. We show you the results of the popular phablet of Samsung and we contrast them with the competition.
Despite having seen the light in early September, the Galaxy Note 4 It is from, all the high-end smartphones that debuted last month, the one that is being asked the most when it comes to passing through the hands of experts for independent tests. In fact, so far one of the few that we have been able to show you is the DisplayMate analysis of your screen. Today at last, we can also test your autonomy.
The autonomy of the Galaxy Note 4 in calls, navigation and video playback
The analysis that we bring you, as we always highlight, has the advantage of distinguishing between the different types of activities that we can carry out with our smartphones and, therefore, it seems to us a better tool when it comes to determining their defects and virtues and what whether or not it adjusts to your habits. The analysis is divided into three sections: calls, navigation y video playback.
Starting with autonomy in call, the data of the Galaxy Note 4 They are simply spectacular, well above most phablets (the ones that larger smartphones, as you know, tend to perform better) and even more than some of the flagships that have undergone these tests recently (between 4 and 5 hours more than the iPhone 6 plus and the Xperia Z3. Its figures are so good that it has managed to match the Lumia 1520 (one of the benchmark devices in autonomy), with 28 34 hours and minutes. Only the Huawei Ascend Mate 2 surpasses them.
The data is not so extraordinary when we go to the section on navigation and with 10 44 hours and minutes, we found a few smartphones that surpass it, among them the Xperia Z3 (12 hours and 3 minutes). However, if we compare them specifically with devices with Quad HD displays, the situation changes radically and the Galaxy Note 4 It shines again with its own light, with around 5 hours more autonomy than the Oppo Find 7a and the LG G3. Even "only" with a Full HD screen, the iPhone 6 Plus is about 3 hours away.
The palm is probably taken in the section of video playback, in which, despite the Quad HD display, manages to win the bronze medal, only behind the LG G Flex and the Huawei Ascend Mate 2, two phablets with an HD screen, not even Full HD. With 17 25 hours and minutes, the improvement over the already great Galaxy Note 3 of almost 4 hours. The bulk of the phablets on the market with a Full HD screen, needless to say, are even further away (the difference with the iPhone 6 Plus is more than 6 hours).
A real beast
El Galaxy Note generation after generation has been a device in which we could fully trust when it comes to autonomy, but it cannot be emphasized enough how impressive this improvement is just when it seemed that we could find the opposite, a nosedive, due to the incorporation of a Quad HD display, something that has even weighed down the flagship of another of the companies that has traditionally managed to optimize battery and consumption on their smartphones: the LG G3.
In addition, to these fantastic results for different types of activities is added a fairly good autonomy in stand-by, so that the Galaxy Note 4 It even surpasses the Xperia Z3 in the total hours that can be maintained without recharging with moderate use: 87 hours. Obviously, most of us in our daily lives will use our smartphone more than this standard of moderate use implies (one hour a day of calls, navigation and video playback), but it seems that we will not have difficulties to get to the second day before need to plug it in again.
