According to the International Consumer Research and Testing Consortium, the International Consumer Research and Testing report reported that LG's G FLEX performed best in the two -year battery consumption test. Its 3500 mAh battery simulated the test environment in the laboratory.The performance below only decreased by only 3%.
G FLEX's initial battery life is 8 hours and 40 minutes, and after two years, its battery life drops to 8 hours and 23 minutes.
The Galaxy S5 launched by LG's local competitors Samsung is equipped with a 2800 mAh battery. The battery life of two years later has dropped by 12%, from the initial 9 hours and 31 minutes to 8 hours and 22 minutes.
Apple's iPhone 5s is equipped with a 1560 mAh battery. The battery life of the two years later has dropped by 13%, from the initial 5 hours and 50 minutes to 5 hours and 3 minutes.
The International Consumer Research and Test Alliance tested a total of 8 mobile phones and 6 tablets of different brands.In the test, they simulated the use time by continuously charging mobile phones and tablets, and charged and discharged 365 times on the test equipment with two days of charge as a standard.
In order to simulate the usage of real life more authentic, the parameters they set in the test include: the highest screen brightness, opening WiFi function, watching online videos of streaming media, and 20%of the power, and then repeat the process.After charging mobile phones and tablets 365 times, the test team tested the time consumed by the equipment battery from the full power to the power.
Professor Michael Hui King-Man, president of the committee's propaganda and community relations branch, said that the results of the test were satisfactory.He added that the battery life of mobile phones is also related to many other factors, such as device screen size and processing capabilities.
He pointed out that the warranty period of certain equipment did not test the simulation time.For example, LG's two mobile phones only provide a 6 -month warranty period for the battery.Nokia's Lumia 1020 and Samsung S5 have only 6 months.Under normal circumstances, the warranty period of mobile phone products is usually one year.
Professor Xu said that since most mobile phones are equipped with built -in batteries, the cost of warranty is relatively short and the cost of solving the battery problem is relatively high, which will cause many functional mobile phones to be abandoned by people, and this will increase the environment.destroy.
He said that if the cost of repairing or replacing mobile phone batteries requires another 269 to HK $ 1,600, many consumers will choose to give up.He added that some companies also charge another 100 Hong Kong dollar inspection fee.
Professor Xu said that if consumers encounter problems after the mobile phone warranty expires, another choice is to find a reliable mobile phone repair shop for repair.
Although there may be a problem of personal data protection, Professor Xu said that consumers can take out the memory card before sending the mobile phone to repair.
Ms. Gilly Wong Fung-Han, chief executive of the committee, said: "The relationship between batteries and mobile phones is closely related. If the battery is scrapped, your mobile phone will be scrapped."
