Xiaomi 14 vs 14 Ultra vs Samsung S24 Ultra / HONOR / OnePlus / Vivo / iPhone Battery Life DRAIN Test
How does the Xiaomi 14 (4610mAh) & Xiaomi 14 Ultra (5000mAh) stack up against the Samsung S24 Ultra (5000mAh), HONOR Magic 6 Pro (5600mAh), OnePlus 12 (5400mAh), Vivo X100 Pro (5400mAh), and iPhone 15 Pro Max (4441mAh) in this ULTIMATE Real Life Usage 100%-0% Battery Drain Test?!?
All Phones are Set to the Exact SAME Brightness Level (Using a LUX Meter). If a phones display looks brighter or dimmer than another, it's due to my studio lighting OR because it dimmed due to overheating.
I run through 15 APPS which include System Apps, Media Apps, Social Media Apps, Camera Apps, Benchmark Apps (to simulate High Performance Gaming), and Games. Intervals are clocked at every 30 minutes and at each interval I show the percentage of each phone as well as their temperature in degrees celsius using an Infrared Heat Gun!

Hey Guys, thanks for all the support! 🙏 I hope you all enjoy the video as it took ages to put together 🔥I also wanted to quickly mention a few things: 1. This is my first drain test in 4K, enjoy! 👏 2. In the past, many of you have said this and that about screen resolutions and said that because one phone is pushing more pixels than another it affects the battery life. Well, I have been doing battery drain tests for years now and have noticed the difference is extremely minimal (if any at all) and depending on the phone, sometimes I've seen greater battery life from a phone running at it's native QHD resolution instead of having it dropped down to FHD res. Just some food for thought 😅 3. All phones are sitting at 100% battery health 🙌 4. I always keep all the brightness levels, apps and app running times EXACTLY the same so that you can compare these results to other SOT results within Battery Tests on MY channel 😃 5. ALL phones are global variants running on GLOBAL ROM 👀 6. X (Twitter) Link to wallpaper: x.com/technickbrazer/status/1787841736670118383?s=46&t=njSAbxlis0HTWCsnHSuKwg
Where is oppo find x7 ultra?
I think you should have two battery drain test to be fair one from factory and.one with the lucks metre
2.) I think that's because there's a difference between pushing internal resolution and OLEDs having to light up individual pixels. Since there are more pixels to light, more battery is needed. That's what I think at least.

Honor magic 6 ultimate battery is even better
from a sub brand of huawei selling cheap phones to making a flagship that competes with the best. Honor are really going somewhere
Yeah, I have been very impressed. You can see how hard they are working 👏
Honor is the global version of Huawei
The Honor magic 6 Pro is amazing. I recently took pictures at a birthday party and every kept asking me to take pics the whole day asking where's the Honor. After seeing the pics my friends iphones and Samsungs took everyone wanted those from my Honor instead. It really is exceptional.
@@SDav21Honestly i was in the same situation last year. I purchased Honor magic 5 pro and everyone in my relatives were having either 15pro max or s23 ultra. There were some family functions and everyone were so surprised with the pictures that they can't believe it was better than Samsung and iPhone. I m using magic 5 pro and really it is better than many other flagship.
the honor is literally a Huawei though
Thank gawd he didn't include pixel would have died 5 hrs ago 💀

Xiaomi needs to work on optimization of battery
Yea they need alot of work, I think they always rush to release their phones.
Battery life of Xiaomi 14 Ultra Chinese version actually beats S24Ultra

@@wouter.d.h. True, but almost all of the OS is just a ported version of MIUI, so it's mostly just the same.
Honor Magic is the winner which is impressive, it shows the superiority of Huawei in battery
No surprise, it's the phone with the biggest battery in the test.
@@adriancc4240 but it can be a surprise because I have seen phones with huge batteries but with poor battery endurances
Con 5600 mah cuidado y no. Dónde Apple tuviera ese rango de batería mamita.
iphone is the real winner here if all the phones are all trimmed down to 4,400 mah to match iphone's battey 😅
You allways do the best detailed batterytest! Great content!
I love this series. Thank you so much!
A year ago I switched from Honor 8 Pro after 6.5 years. This was a great competitor to 1+ when it had launched. The optimization by Huawei at the time was very good. Now that its seperated, very happy to see Honor back in front. Hopefully the availablity in different regions improve and I may think to buy the Magic 6 Pro.
Honor and huwaei have the best battery life ever.. i am using my p30pro since 4 year and it still give me 8hrs + of on-screen battery for my continuous use (youtube videos ) .. unbelievable! incredible !!!!
Really
XD? 😂😂😂😂 watching youtube? My s23u 12-13h watching youtube. Netlix more than 13. My 9yo xperia z2 8h youtube sot 9yo battery... but its sony..

Hey Nick. Awesome video as always. Do you have a similar battery drain video for foldables?
Wiw Nick, you out so much time into each review you so, excellent battery drain test. Love u tons. ❤
...well Honor showed since last year that they can do stamina...
It has 5600 mah battery
Awesome battery drain test as always brother
Thank you for your wonderful effort. A useful video for evaluating high-end phone batteries. Please rate the cameras for the same phones in this video
Wow!....can't imagine the amount of work put into this video....keep it up!💪 Awesome vid!👏
Thank you Nick! I love the Oneplus 12 ♥
You are more than welcome! The OnePlus 12 is insane value for money! 👏
another amazing battery drain test, these are usually part of the hardest of phone reviews using all 6 phones in a 9 to 11hr marathon just to give us insight on the phones with the best battery life really appreciated bro.❤ Hoping to see the Huawei Pura 70 ultra camera and battery drain test in your upcoming videos✌️
You do the best smartphone comparisons on KZhead
Thanks!
Great reviews Sir
Samsung has that problem. The moment it gets to under 10% the battery drain is baaaaad... You'd think it should be the opposite
Yes a problem thats been here for a few years now. Every samsung flagship is worse below 10%. Consider it 1 percent every minute. Barely gets 10 12 mins.
Very true

Great video as always ❤️
Very good and ver useful 💪🏽🤩
Currently I'm getting around 2 days and 6 hours use from my Magic 6 Pro with moderate use. Amazing really. It lasts more than a day with heavy heavy use. The one strange thing I've noted is that here in South Africa the networks are draining phone batteries quite quickly. On WiFi it'll go on forever but on the network it uses battery even at idle and that's even on iphones, Samsungs, Huawei's etc. I wonder why.
Amazing video ❤
Thanks for the huge effort to put these devices to the test together 🙏
Thanks for the amazing support 🙏
6:14 Octopus mode bro😅. Love your content, especially these
Hey Nick, will you be doing a review on the Honour Magic 6 pro??
Why dont you make the same test for nowdays flagship killers like s23fe s21fe s20fe iph se2020 se 2022 k40 k50 and other devices in that class .. please 💝
Welp. I have the 13ultra, so obviously I was voting for the 14 ultra. Just goes to show there's no need to upgrade every year. Dropping a like and a comment for the effort, thanks man.
It was interesting to have the Sony Xperia 1 V in this test as well.
Amazing battery test video thank you for sharing
Great video sir
Awesome Comparison Video Sir 😍
Thanks!
The beeeeeest battery drain test has done it again !! 🔥🔥🔥 As usual, your battery drain test are fire, my favs. Well done. Honor on top !!!
Thanks so much 🎉
@@TechNick GG !! 🔥🔥
great video!
Hey Nick i would like you to consider placing the phone on something that can tilt them up alittle. I can confirm that the camera bumbs of some phone are bigger than others creating enough space at the back of the phone to dissipate heat
Very good video👍👍
I'm thoroughly enjoying the magic 6 Pro. I went 4 years with my P40 Pro because there was nothing worthy to replace it. Now Honor works like Huawei but with Google and it's so good. Cameras, battery, screen, software. Just everything about the phone is next level. Even with the big battery it charges in no time. And unlike the others, it comes with a 100w charger and cover in the box.
Yeah, phone of the year most likely 👏
Love this series
I will planned to bought vivox100 is value for money or is there any issues here pleaese reply bro❤❤❤❤❤
Super Battery test video 👍
People who complained about the higher temperature those phones gets do not understand the concept of this video, because how on earth would you sit down and be running all those heavy tasks nonstop on your phone? Nick puts those phones to their limits, every component on them were working so hard. Consider yourself running nonstop for 7 hours and chech your body temperature. Well-done Nick for great job 👍
actually people complained the temp because of daily basis use or just scrolling yet it still gets hot in hand
Finally someone who gets it! Cheers 🍻 that said I do show the temp after each app that was run and the devices peak when using full cpu load when running benchmarks and using the camera app so that’s when they got very hot. When running basic apps throughout the test, most of them were idling at around 30-40 degrees which is acceptable.
If a phone is reaching 70 degrees Celsius it’s very likely reaching 55+ degrees on tasks like gaming, camera and GPS. Anything over 50 degrees is quite literally destroying your battery, so if your phone constantly hits 50+ degrees on a daily basis, this battery is going to be cooked.
@@TechNick iphone 50 degree... same tasks
Picked up a oneplus 12 from ali express with global rom for £355,battery is great
355 gpb? are you sure it is the 12? the cheapes i can find on aliexpress is 580 gpb
It's quite interesting when you look at how they perform if they had the same capacity batteries. That really gives a good indication of how efficient the phone is at using its power. Also interesting that the phones that kept their temperature under control tended to do better than those that didn't.
Cheers for watching till the end bud 😃🍻 yeah the iPhone has very good efficiency due to optimization
Very useful Video 🥰🥰🥰
I'm loving my Magic 5 pro and it's insane battery as well. ...i just wish they stepped up the software game a little. I miss some features i had in Samsung and updates are so slow. Still waiting for magicOS 8.
Superb Comparison Video Sir
Cheers!
Hey Nick,we wait a review of Pura 70 series,hopefuly soon....
Ahh, still waiting for mine!
so excited for the new battery tech
Thank you
HONOR MAGIC 6 Pro's battery performance is extraordinary, this battery uses the latest 2nd Generation Silicon Carbon Anode battery technology. - Silicon anode offers 10 times the power density of graphite, but volume increases by up to 300% - Honor Magic 6 Pro also uses an additional chip called Power Enhanced Chip Honor E1, a HONOR Power Management System chip that significantly improves the battery experience - The second generation silicon-carbon battery also offers improvements in charging. To ensure optimal performance - Honor says Laser Guidance Microtunneling technology makes a big difference when used on silicon-based anodes. This increases the contact area between the electrolyte and the silicon-based anode, unlocking usable capacity in the low voltage range. Additionally, it helps increase battery capacity.
That was actually not very good, look at the mAh/min and it’s far worse than the iPhone. To only last 30 minutes longer than a 4400mAh battery, looks like Honor skimped on the chipset optimization and just threw in a larger battery.
@@superiortoall22The battery isn't physically larger but because of the new battery tech it is more dense so they can fit larger mah in the same size. Apples software is so basic and simple and hasn't changes in years. Apple makes their own chip with their software so it's a given it'll be more efficient.
@@SDav21 regardless of size or density, mah is the capacity to provide electrical flow, so no matter which way you explain, it’s still a larger capacity battery. Remember physical hardware is still easier produce than anything software. And as an engineer that works with both Android and iOS, iOS is not 1200 mAh difference simpler. It’s just poor optimization on Honors part man, no excuses.
@@superiortoall22 I get that. But it's mah per minute was still very good and it lasted quite a bit longer than the S24 Ultra which would be it's main Android competitor. No Android phone is as efficient as iPhone because most Android phone makers don't make their own chips and android is universal as it needs to work on multiple devices with a staggering array of configurations all with their own layers of unique software. And actually, the Honor had the best mah per minute of all the android phones here. It isn't poor optimisation. Just different optimisation. The Honor will easily outlast any Android phone on the market. Also, if you look at the last part with the numbers, he shows how long each phone would last if it had 5600mah and the Honor is still 1st among the android phones. So it has the best Android optimisation and clearly better than what you're trying to make it out to be.
@@superiortoall22 And also, if you look at the last part of the video with all the numbers, he shows how long each phone would last if they all had 5600mah batteries and the Honor would still be the best Android phone. So clearly it isn't poor optimisation as you're trying to make it out to be. It clearly has the best optimisation of all the android phones and it's dedicated power management chip is clearly working well to negate the drawbacks of Android being universal as well as the chipset being universal and all not specifically designed in-house for that particular product alone.
Vivo is one of the three winners and this is cool considering that it has a chip from Dimensity)))
12:18 honor taking Screenshot before dying out was pretty crazy and genius i had say ❤
Need to see these tesst with Xperia 1 VI, sounds like it will be new battery king
great review on each flagship battery consumption. I would like to suggest instead of mentioning battery (which we all know mAh for battery) why not change it to type of battery either using Li-ion, Li-Po or Sica example 5400mAh Li-Ion.
Good idea. They are all lithium except the honor which I mentioned in the video a few times. But yeah, will keep it in mind for the next one cheers!
Impressive honor !
Man iPhone doesn't have any implemented internal cooling...still it has the lowest temp🤯
Software helps it alot
The 3nm technology processor consumes less power.
Pura 70 ultra next please
For sure! Waiting for mine to arrive 🙏
Do charging test after they all gone down It will be great
hey!!! looks like your oneplus 12 is a chinese version, cause it dont have CE certification on the back.. I've heard that global one holds the battery much better! Would be great if you test it again!
It’s the global variant 😃
Thanks.
68 degrees is skin burn level, that's insane
That killed my thoughts of buying the phone if I ever got the funds. 😂
Was cheering for OnePlus 12. Got it like a month ago. Loving it❤.
very good❤
Please do a camera comparison between vivo x100 ultra and vivo x100s pro and other flagship phone
iPhone with a 5000 mah battery will destroy everyone
Check the end of the vid. I show what it’s SOT would be if it had the same 5600mAh battery as the honor 😎

This video is the reason why I buy the Honor Magic 6 pro, but bravo to Apple for crazy good optimisation
honor 6 pro has camera fogging issue
@@PcGamingForFun I dont like the camera on Honor that much tbh, still prefer iPhone
Ian using honor magic 6 pro everything is good Battery excellent awesome
Honor is doing what Huawei would have done on global level before the ban🥲
Is the ram amount any indicator of the phone's battery life? Seems the more they have,, the worse the battery gets.
Just wow Honor! Keep it up!
Please do consider adding Nothing Phone 2 and OnePlus 12R 15:49
❤❤❤ adjust the screen on time in the settings to 10 minutes for all phones I saw the lock screen on the iPhone more than 5times meaning it was saving up some battery Everytime it turned off the screen after the screen on time runs out
All of them have been set to their longest time before falling asleep. The iPhone is set to never. I just showed the iPhone Lock Screen to indicate the battery % since you can’t see it in the settings app like the androids
Nice
What about the Sony Xperia 1 VI when it's releasing😊
Vivo is more impressive to me knowing that it has all power hungry cores.
Can we get the same comparison but for foldable phones
it is very strange that on another channel in the same test, shchtuzdy 12 worked the longest.
I'm using honor magic 5pro and it's really really good
11 hours, wow 😲
Watching this video from my basic Xiaomi 14😅 and from my experience, it is better battery life then my previous Honor magic 5 pro
Just include the charging back to 100% time ... That will change the whole scenario 😂
What!!! 67°C 🤯
Wish I saw this video before picking up the Xiaomi 14. A lot of the review sites I saw gave it a similar battery rating to the 5000mah phones, so I was hoping to get a battery champ in a small package, but I'm underwhelmed with the battery so far. I guess other reviewers run a lighter, fixed load instead of a mixed load like you do here. Edit: 2 weeks in, and the battery optimization kicked in hard. The battery on the Xiaomi 14 is pretty decent now, but still definitely not on the level of 5000 mah phones. It's a pretty reliable 1-day battery phone, but it rarely lasts a second day for me. The first 2 weeks were rough though, often requiring 2-3 top ups per day.
Well over 7h SOT is still very good, especially for a compact device. But we all do different things on our phones, so I try to give the most balance with my tests. Other than battery life, how are you finding that little pocket rocket? 🚀
How long have you been using it
@@victorochidi5558 It's my third day. I read somewhere that HyperOS will optimize itself after 2 weeks after learning my usage patterns, so I'm observing the battery life until then.
@@TechNick I like it! My main phone is the S24U, so the difference in battery endurance is just a little jarring. I like how light the Xiaomi 14 is, and I prefer the look of the Leica authentic snaps more than the regular photos of the S24U. The only thing holding me back from putting my main sim in it is the battery life, but here's hoping it'll optimize itself as I use it.
@@victorochidi5558 I replied earlier, but I think it might have been deleted? I'm on my third day now. I read somewhere that HyperOS optimizes the battery based off your usage patterns, and to give it 2 weeks to normalize. I really hope it does.
I was waiting for a battery drain test and man went ahead and dropped THE battery drain test. THE GOAT.
Would have been cool to get a pixel pro 8 in there, may be instead of the small xiaomi? But at least there is a dimensity and an iphone to spice things up!
lol the Pixel would’ve died before the Xiaomi 14
pixel 8 pro wouldn't last 6 hour on this test
Why would he include Pixelshit?
I included the pixel 8 pro in my last test so check it out. I can only include 7 phones at a time so I like to mix it up now and then
Xiaomi có mấy dòng vậy ạ, cảm ơn bạn chúc một ngày tốt lành 😊
Xiaomi please improve 🙏 battery ability Honour Really interested 😊
Iphone in case not for gaming, is amazing. But in gaming, the battery is drained so fast
