Smartphones With Biggest Battery Capacities Don’t Have Longest Battery Life, Strategy Analytics Says
Bigger doesn’t necessarily mean better for smartphone battery performance, Strategy Analytics said in a report. The research firm tested the battery performance of “flagship” smartphones from Apple, Google, HTC, Huawei, LG, Nokia, Samsung and Sony and found that the smartphones with the largest battery capacities didn’t provide the longest battery life, it said Wednesday. “Battery life is consistently one of the most important aspects taken into consideration when a consumer purchases a new smartphone” and also is one of the biggest sources of “smartphone owner dissatisfaction,” it said.
