This app helps by automatically setting up alerts to remind you to unplug your phone when it hits 80% and not letting the charge drop below 20%. By doing this you can effectively double the usable lifespan of your device. When we’re measuring features vs price, the UMiDigi Power comes out on top as the best all-rounder mid-range phone in this list. The large 6.3″ display is Full HD, it’s also thin at 8.8mm, and it still manages to squeeze in an impressive 5150mAh fast charge battery… letting you ‘Power’ on well into your 2nd day of usage.
If the idea of 25 hours screen-on time sounds perfect, then still don’t buy the K13. Let’s be honest, you can carry an 8000mAh power bank around with plus a much better & slimmer device for the same price! Since its missing NFC, still using the old Micro-USB port and features a rather underwhelming resolution for the large 6″ display… it’s all going to come down to the price. However, the front-facing shooter drops to 16MP’s and you’ll also notice a little more noise in photos. The reason for this battery life decline is down to chemistry. Lithium-ion batteries use a cathode and anode to move the charged ions. Eventually, charging begins to wear out the cathode which gives you less overall charge capacity. Couple this with a beautiful 6.47″ curved ( HDR10) AMOLED display, a gaming-ready Snapdragon 730G plus tons of storage and we have ourselves one of best value phones of 2020.
The smartphone with the longest battery life used to be the Doogee BL12000, which featured the Guinness World Record-breaking 12000mAh battery. If you were looking for a OnePlus alternative at around half the price, the F1 Play has you covered. The hole-punch display hides the 32MP selfie shooter and the rear quad camera setup is equally excellent featuring high-res, ultrawide and bokeh lenses. I was a huge fan of the G7 Power, and the Motorola G8 Power only builds on its predecessors’ strong points. Yes, the device comes with a 5000mAh battery, qualifying it for this list of smartphones with amazing battery life. However, that’s only half the reason why I have included it on the list. Onto the battery life, and we’ve got 5150mAh’s to play with. This means the F1 Play will easily last for 2-3 days and with this big battery comes an impressive 18w fast charger which will give you a 40% charge in less than 30 minutes.
I know your pain, so that’s why I vow that all phones henceforth (in this article at least) will have at least a 5000mAh battery. That means enough battery life to keep you off-grid well into your second and even third day. What makes this a great budget option for the battery-life connoisseur is the better-than-expected dual rear cameras. It’s easy to shoot crisp & vivid photos outdoors and you even have the option for 1080P video recording. Another nice bonus is the included accessories. Inside the box, you’ll find a 30W fast charger, a case, and headphones. Thank you very much, Xiaomi! Finally, in terms of design, this is the only place where Samsung had to cut some corners by going with a plastic build. However, the plastic body does help to keep the weight down at only 191 grams despite the massive battery, so that’s a big plus. Normally these types of ‘show off’ phones are more of a marketing-stunt than real-life products… but not so with the P18K.It seems every mobile manufacturer has their own ‘Power’ branded smartphone now, but what make’s UMiDigi’s version so special is the price tag. Update: The Mi Max 3 is a little older now, but, I’ve left it on this list as it’s still great-value and is the perfect media-consuming phone. After all this talk about batteries and electric currents, it's time to answer the million-dollar question. Does a higher mAh rating mean more battery life? Well... it depends.
The Xiaomi Mi Note 10 boasts a whopping 5 camera setup with a humongous 108MP main shooter. And when you combine that with the long-lasting 5260mAh battery, you’ll be snapping photos well into the night. Now onto the battery. Yes that’s right, under the hood is a 9000mAh battery that will easily last 2 days of power usage and 3-4 of light usage. For a massive battery like this, you need some serious charging power and it comes in the form of PumpExpress 4.0 (5V/5amps). Coming to its internals, you have a Snapdragon 665 running the show paired with 4GB of RAM and 64GB of internal storage. That’s more than enough for all your media-centric needs. Other premium features we see on the BL9000 are Wireless Charging and NFC which are traditionally reserved for flagship devices. Or should I say… UMiDigi F1 Play – Ceramic Edition? Specs-wise, the two phones only differ in the camera department. In terms of build quality, the S3 Pro uses a ceramic rear battery cover, but at the cost of 23 extra grams in weight.While not as value-driven as the UMiDigi Power above, we do see a big performance jump thanks to the MediaTek Helio P60 mobile chip. The 64GB’s of onboard storage can also be expanded up to 256GB SD, but you’ll have to sacrifice that 2nd SIM slot.
With brands like Xiaomi now dominating the mid-range market, mobile giant Samsung has upped its game in 2020 releasing to the affordable M31 with a huge 6000mAh battery. If you understand how batteries work, then you’ll know that they come with a limited lifetime, also called cycle count, before they start deteriorating. After around 100-200 cycles you’ll be losing anywhere between 10 & 25% of your battery life depending on the quality of the battery. Now, apart from the bump in battery life, in almost everything else, the Power 3 is either similar to the F2 or offers slightly downgraded specs.
Yes, there’s no denying that the design is a little 2018, but if you’re not a fan of the notch, then this a solid long battery life option. Fast forward to 2019 and the Energizer Power Max P18K blows it out of the water with a ridiculous 18000mAh battery. All-while featuring flagship credentials such as a popup selfie camera and tiny bezels.
