Before you say stuff like "Backlight intensity, environmental temperatures, and how much is going on on the tablet being used" please allow me to properly explain the question.
Im trying to help a friend in purchasing a tablet. Im trying to get a comparison of the available options and their specs. Im narrowing down on key features, one of which being battery life. As a baseline, Im comparing to the batteries of the devices I have and my dad has.
Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Battery: 8,220 mAh. Video Play time: 10 Hrs
Samsung Galaxy Note 8.0 Battery: 4,600 mAh. Video Play Time: 8 Hrs
This is where I get confused
Samsung Galaxy Tab Pro 8.4 Battery: 5.3 Volt, Lithium Ion, 4800 mAh. Video Play Time: 12 Hrs.
Now the only difference I see between the batteries for our two devices and the new Tab Pro 8.4 is the mention or "5.3 Volt".
Yet despite it only being 4,800 mAh, it gets two more hours worth of capable max video play time the the Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) which has almost twice the battery capacity.
Does anyone know what scale the "Video Play Time" is used in general device specs? Is the "5.3 Volt" what is making the difference? if so, what does that make the Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) or the Note 8.0? I need to know what to compare to.

Hi, I'm looking at the H1 to do me for 6 months when I'll pick up the Nexus 6P successor, how did you find it? I've read a few reviews online but not much information about prolonged use. I'm coming from a galaxy note 4 (now broken) and have never owned a mid range smartphone so I'm unsure what to expect. does it run smoothly with a few apps open? app switching? multiple chrome tabs open? a few games here and there (not the most demanding of games though).
thanks
First, you have to remember that Cubot H1 has a MTK quad-core processor clocked 1 MHz. I think it's not the same league as processors in SG Note4 or Nexus 6P . Secondly, I can't live without root access. I use Greenify application, which makes RAM usage between 500MB - 1GB . I have installed 3 games : Angry Birds - Transformer, Traffic Rider , NFS No Limits. No problems. The same with open few tab in Chrome browser. Smartphone still working as a first day. Personally, I have slowly looking around for a successor, but doesn't find worthy . Battery 5000mAh and 5,7' screen is the absolute min, LED notifications , dual-sim, SD card slot (no hybrid), blinking buttons below the screen, mini-jack, plus USB on the top of the unit. Cubot work with Android 5.1. Probably I would wait (on the new smartphone) for Android N. Are you checked Ulephone Power?
Hello,
In my case it was 10-12 hrs too
Hi All!
I have a two errors on my Note 4
1. Device is overhating
2. Battery temperature is too high
The Internet said that the reason could be the thermistor. But where he is on the Board? Who knows?
Hello,
Since I have not yet had a precise idea about the battery life of this S10E, I would like a comparison between my current smartphone and the S10E.
If for example with my current smartphone (Galaxy S5 Mini, stock rom and battery replaced about 3 years ago) with the use I make I arrive at night when I go to sleep with about 15% of battery, in my case with S10E how much will the battery percentage be compared to the S5 mini?
Thanks a lot in advance for a reply!
I'm assuming the baterry is 2,100 mAh, the s10e has 3,100 a better processor and a better overall OS and UI.. it handles battery drain better afaik.
You should see very good improvements in battery life going with the s10e..

In all honesty, I came from an LG G6 to the S10e (Snapdragon version), and I'm getting better battery life, even though the G6 had a larger 3300 mAh battery. You should almost certainly see a decent improvement coming from an S5.

I hope, because I would like to buy an european S10E with a Exynos CPU. The battery drain problems is related to Exynos models, not to Snapdragon.
I would not compare a low priced/featured SoC (S5 mini) with a highest end Soc (S10e). A more featured SoC will always drain more power, because it has more components that must be powered. Better compare the energy efficiency of the same SoC from different smartphone manufacturers.
As far as I can say yet after a week, the power drain of the S10e is OK. This means: I expect that with more apps the power drain will raise. If the phone lasts for a day, or if i have to power it in the late evening/night, this is OK.
My last daily driver phone was a Xiaomi Note 5 which broke accidently. That thing gave me power for 2-3 day heavy usage. With an Snapdragon 636, an ernergy efficient mid-class SoC with a 4000mAh battery, the experience was superb. But with lack of many phone features like good camera, NFC, ....
Nevertheless I decided to switch to an higher end daily driver because of the features and overall better possibilies the S10e can give me. If the battery will not last for the whole day i will sell it. I also will buy a backup phone like the Xiaomi Note 7 soon for navigation and for traveling.
Hello, this phone has an HDMI output? I have read in many sites that say yes and in others that say no
Yes, it has. You need to buy the original Blackshark HDMI cable from their website.
what?
it doesn't work with any regular usb-c > hdmi or usb-c multihub (hdmi,pd,usb,rj45) hubs?
i would also need LAN for stutter free gamestreaming( via moonlight)
I guess any USB-C to HDMI should work. Will confirm once I received the device.
Hey Folks my black shark 4 global Rom supports hdmi with any cable through my usb/Hdmi powered hub.
The only problem I'm trying to fix atm is i can run mouse & keybourd and hdmi simultaneously no worries but no power pass through if i do.. If i plug the power cable in the hdmi works, but then i cant connect mouse and keybourd so its either or..
i have a rooted note 9 (sm n960f) that work perfectly with hdmi, charging, mouse and keybourd all at once.
Any help would be much appreciated and happy to donate/pay for the fix cheers all.
I just got one Black Shark 4
I can confirm that HDMI outputs works fine with unofficial USB-C/HDMI cables
Unlike Samsung DEX you can just mirror the screen without any options.
But that's fine to play emulators games with your friends I guess
Sorry for the off topic.
How the battery life friend?

How's the battery life friend? How many % per hour of emulation ?
I am about to purchase this device and one thing that concerns me is the battery life (i'm coming from a OnePlus 7, which offered some 3 hours of relatively demanding emulation with 5 % left on battery)
Thanks!
Hello @RaduNastase
I got the phone just 2 days ago and I had no time to play with emulation yet.
So far I'm very happy of the phone for a standard usage.
I played Fortnite at 30FPS and max details without any issues.
The battery seems to last arround 2 days if you just go to the Internet and don't play.
I will play more this weekend and tell you how long the battery is lasting.

The battery Capacity for BS4 & BS4pro is the same 4500mAh.
Based on my testing with BS4pro, the emulations generally sustain among 5~7hr at normal usage conditions, whether using higher resolution (2x-3x) or Bluetooth controller with CPU temp 46~50 C (FPS performance is dependable on game combability list). However, FPS is stable at almost 60 with CPU temp 18~27 C.
HDMI out with cable or Docking station results with 1080p/60FPS (BS4Po) due to low wattage of USB power almost 15~20W.
Sorry for late reply, battery life on the black shark 4 was fantastic the SD 870 was quite the chip...
I've sold it due to needing a 512gb storage option and I have a Asus ROG 5s 16gb 512g model now.. so I can try and compare them.
The 870 was much more battery efficient even with the smaller 4500mah battery compare to the new ROG 5s which has 6000mah...
I guess the sd888+ sucks a lot more juice out of the battery (even on standby) when testing emulators and PUBG new state (60fps for now) and mobile legends @ (120fps) was pretty similar In real world tests...
Hope this helps you decide
In the end i went for a Rog 3 (12/512).
The battery is good, especially in heavy usage (~ 5:30 hours of continuous play at 3x resolution with Aethersx2 ps2 emulation for one charge), though not as consistent in stand by as my previous OnePlus 7.
I guess Black Shark 4 is still a great phone to consider for anyone interested.
I got the unlocked S22ultra and I get only 5hrs SOT. For a 5000mAH battery that's very bad compared to iPhone 13 pro max. Does anyone has any suggestions ? Do you have any resolutions? Please don't tell me to turn off features /apps to get good battery.
Exynos versiĆ³n?
debloated?
Debloat LISTS - S22 Ultra Series
Hey everyone, figure i start a thread on apps/etc that can be safely disabled, so that we can dial on on removing needless junk from our phones. I am currently running a Snapdragon S22 Ultra, SM-S908U 512GB (AT&T variant) so my list may vary...
forum.xda-developers.com
Turn off features/apps to get good battery.
You will never get close to the 13 pro max SOT no matter how much you debloat, turn off features/ apps or any other gimmicks one can think off. The 13 pro max is in a whole different league.
Two things that worked for me on Snap Dragon is use FHD Resolution instead of WQHD and turn off mobile data when your on a WIFI network and don't need it. 5G Cellular seems put a lot of drain on the battery. When I am at home I have 5G WIFI so I just turn mobile off.
Try this workaround without disabling anything: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...-news-discussion-thread.4399385/post-86730157
but S22 Ultra has bigger and brighter display so can't really compare to IP13PM..

Don't compare to iCrap. It's easy for them to optimize their phones due to their jailed garden approach.
