@@LoverOfTech I think it's the optimisation of these brands samsung and Google in WQHD resolution is soo good.do this with other brands like OnePlus 12 & Xiaomi 14 pro
hands down the best battery test - nobody ever that I saw did it with mobile data (which was a plague with my pixel 7 before but has been fixed finally after months in beta update) or different screen resolution/refresh. Brilliant, subscribed.
I have said this so many times, ever since the Galaxy S7, people have always insisted on using "lower resolution to save battery". It makes no sense to do that, the screen in the phone is QHD regardless of what resolution you set it in your settings. The same amount of pixels are going to be powered anyway. The only way this could save battery would be if you are were doing some heaving rendering or playing certain games that support high resolution as it would require more power from the GPU to process each frame, but most people will never even do this and in normal daily tasks there is really no difference.
Ben is HIM. The man that answers the questions us tech enthusiasts want to know. Like this. Like dark vs light mode. Exynos vs Snapdragon battery drain test. You're the man Ben. Thanks for these cracking videos
I think on the S22 ultra, QHD and FHD are going to make a difference. The snapdragon 8 Gen 2 and Gen 3 are optimized way better than Gen 1, just my two cents.
@@giovanysantiago5892 let's see, I'll update here after few days. Btw in FHD, I'm not getting SOT of more than 4 hrs. So in any case I'm not enjoying a good battery life.
Thank you for this video! Ordered the S24+ and was wondering about the power efficiency of FHD. Its a relief to know QHD isnt going to drain the battery.
Any PC gamer will tell you it takes more processing to downscale. The s24 has a native QHD display. Honestly, Google is probably using software to smooth edges and add sharpness.
Brilliant video I now have something to point at all those silly people who tell me not to run at native res on my phones. Can't wait for the refresh rate one. Keep up the great work 💪
Great as always ! I found this out a while ago on a s22u. Tried 60hz and 720p and even that did not help much in a days usage. Within margin of error type stuff.
Yes, Apple improves battery life later in the cycle than other OEMs, so 17.3 has improved mine by about 50-70 mins, depending on what I do, compared to iOS 17.2. So, the iPhone still keeps ahead of the S24U with mAh per hour efficiency despite Samsung having the latest X75 modem with around 15-20% better efficiency! Maybe Samsung will improve with updates? As for native QHD, all tests show that in general use, dialling down to FHD+ or less makes a nominal difference. Hopefully, that will dampen down those complaining in comment sections saying it is unfair using QHD! They all had very good SOT for 5G only usage.
That's bs, some updates improve battery life, others hinder it. (Especially for older iPhones, as a part of planned obsolescence Apple has been caught red handed in doing with their updates)
This certainly challenged my long held beliefs that the lower resolution would have saved a notable amount of battery life. The temperatures were usually higher on the higher resolution settings by a few degrees though which was interesting. Nice work!
It would save a lot of power if the screen was actually a lower resolution. A high resolution screen being set to a lower resolution isn't the same as having a lower resolution screen.
The issue i think though is we can see if the mobile signal was consistent between the two runs. With wifi you can control signal strength margins quite well, with mobile data, unless you have your own tower set up, you can't see or control the variance, which can make a huge difference. While i dont think resolution makes a huge difference any more, but a wifi, vs wifi test like this would be much more accurate.
This is because the screen is always showing the same number of pixels. If you drop the resolution the GPU isn't working as hard to render the pixels but it also means the GPU is no longer putting out the native resolution of the screen. That means upscaling has to be done. Upscaling pretty much uses up any power that was saved by the GPU not working as hard. That's why having a lower native resolution saves a lot more battery than a higher native resolution screen being set to a lower resolution.
Hi, great video but you have to remember you was using the phones, try the test with just standby time, it might drain a lot quicker or may not. That would be a good video. Once again great video.
Amazing test Ben! Thank you SO MUCH for this. I have the 8 Pro, and I did not feel much of a difference when I set it to FHD, this proved it for me! You are the MAN Bro!
Thank you so much Brother for your help! I was quite confused about the relationship between screen resolution and battery consumption, but now everything is crystal clear. Your efforts are truly appreciated. Thanks to you, I'm now using my Samsung S23 with complete peace of mind! Grateful for Your Assistance. Love from India.😊
Amazing content as always! I think you're the only one making these kinds of comprehensive testing and kudos to you. Can you do one for light mode vs dark mode? That would be very interesting to see.
I would also love to see the dark mode test for all 3 phones! I wonder if they have the same types of battery savings or not with similar usage as you showed today. Thank you in advance!
Seems like the difference is more related to optimal temperatures in long term use and heavier demanding tasks. I will personally keep my s24 ultra in FHD, since theres not much visible difference to my eyes, and i can keep my phone cooler for longer periods. I think this will translate to better performance in games, since what seems to cap the performance in these newer chips is temperature. S24 will literally drop some frames in order to prevent overheating, and using a lower resolution will definetly help with this.
This is something that always confused me. I wanted to enjoy high definition, but I was afraid of draining the battery. The best comparison in the history of TH-cam.
Thank you very much for your hard work on this. Ita a meaningful test. You're awesome. Just subscribed. With this video you re-wrote the text books of the manufacturers lol. Waiting for the wifi VS mobile data test and refresh rate test
This is really interesting. Thank you very much for the test. I think it's really interesting how the battery life is the same yet the temperature difference is quite notable. My guess is manufacturers want the phones to stay cool so they put FHD out of the box (maybe for longevity?).
Ok this is very interesting,but I will have to give it to the iPhone,though the Samsung is not that far ,love this comparison,very realistic with the mobile data ,u will know the real battery drain test,I think that with time Samsung will push out software that will make the 24ultra better,keep it up bro,u re now my no 1 tech review ❤❤❤
Thank you so much for this test. That's exactly what I was looking for since I'm getting my new phone on Wednesday. Now I know that keeping it in FHD makes zero sense.
Crazy how people keep telling me that s24 ultra has the superor camera and battery in comparison to the pixel 8 pro. The battery life on the s24 Ultra was only 20 minutes longer than the pixel 8 Pro. All this talk about battery and ai superiorty with the snapdragon 8 gen 3.
That's why you shouldn't pre-order the phone. After a few months, it becomes clear who the battery king, and then you can buy. And this year there will probably be 16 pro max
I'm amazed how far smartphones have come. 6hours of usage was unthinkable a couple of years ago. How long do these phones last when you use them on max brightness?
I see the results and I see the comments stating that people have known for ages that the battery difference is minor or not there at all, or the phone has to work harder to downscale a QHD image to 1080p. But Samsung state in the settings when switching between FHD and QHD that QHD will use more battery. Why do they ship phones in FHD and state this in the settings if it's not the case? just wondering, genuine question
Hey man, great job on the video that looks like it took a lot of work and it was well worth it. It’s a question many people myself included have always wondered.
What a positive vibe in this video thanks, amazing contant, I am guessing before that maybe increased by 1 hour in my P8P when using FHD but now I realize whatever mode we used in the display it does not make sense because all pixel in screen is working so the display mode just 2-4% only different doesn't create any sense.
Switching (in a software way) a screen that is natively WQHD to FHD doesn't really change much in terms of its energy consumption. A 1440p screen, even when set to 1080p, will still consume more than 1290p/1220p or 1080p screens. And I remain convinced that for smartphone screens, which generally do not exceed 7", the 1290p/1220p used by iPhones, Honor, Huawei and Pixel 8 Pro, remains the ideal and the maximum to use natively.
That's wierd, this is i found On the internet. According to Android Authority, a Quad HD display uses about 12% more power than a Full HD display. Some say that a native FHD panel is more energy efficient than a QHD panel downscaled to FHD.
This was a great test, bravo but I still say do a battery drain test as the phones come right out the box just like no more people use their phone right off the box and also do a battery charge test via wireless
Maybe the scaling down from its native resolution to FHD is more GPU intensive, so the benefits of running a lower resolution actually pits more stress on the phone.
This is what we call a close to real life battery drain test. Unlike other youtubers who normally test the battery drain over wifi mostly and get around 8 9 hrs of sot and sometimes 10 11 hours.
My S24 Ultra battery is draining like crazy EDIT: Your review is honest. I love it. The SOT is around 6 to 7 hours and the phone dies. I randomly found some youtubers say this phone could go 2 days without charging. Man! Dont trust em
I Think Pixel Count Matters most Whilst Gaming ,where a graphics card has to work alot harder to deal with more pixels.. Thanks for these Videos,now i can shut my friend up about his iphone Battery life
Well, samsung definitely gets better and better at battery life. They are almost equal with the iPhone this year. A year ago, they were more than an hour behind, and the year before, that i was even worse. Honestly, i think if you make those after 6 months with some software updates from samsung, they will be tied. After all this is almost completely reworked firmware, they will optimize it more for sure. Really liked this test
@@LoverOfTech It was in 2022 and my S20+ Exynos was dying all the time, so energy saving (CPU throttled, 60Hz) and 720p were a must to get through most of the day. I‘m glad I‘m not stuck with that red hot „flagship“ anymore.
@@LoverOfTech You should do the comparison between phones at constant 120 vs constant 60 and between phones which can lower the frequency dynamically. But in the latter case to get actual realiable results you would need to simulate (or actually do) presses/swipes etc. If you don‘t everything static will just be 60Hz max anyways
It really isn't a huge surprise. Most ordinary apps are not designed to use the display resolution above 1080p. If you were to run a game, however, designed to use the full resolution, I guarantee you there'll be a difference in battery life.
A better approach to see if the battery effects are different is to use between Wi-Fi and mobile data so if it really makes a difference, because other battery drain test on Wi-Fi are getting 9+ hours of screen on time
Thanks for testing this and busted old myth 🤔. I think Lower resolution will only work if its the Native Resolution, else it doesnt make sense to Downscale unless maybe in gaming for more frame?
I think on the S22 ultra, QHD and FHD are going to make a difference. The snapdragon 8 Gen 2 and Gen 3 are optimized way better than Gen 1, just my two cents.
I'm not even remotely surprised. The displays are still 1440p, no matter what resolution you set them at. The lower-resolution setting reduces the image resolution, but the image is upscaled to fill the screen with pixel doubling via scaling. It's like playing a Nintendo Switch on your TV. The Switch only outputs at 1080p in docked mode at best. But the TV screen, which has a native display at 4K, upscales the 1080p image signal it's being fed to 4K via intelligent pixel doubling. Your Galaxy S24+ and Ultra still have 4,492,800 pixels that make up the display and are lit up and active, showing an image no matter what resolution the display is fed. It's just that some pixels mirror one another when fed lower-resolution content rather than showing something unique from one another with native 1440p or higher content. So the screen is drawing the same amount off of the battery, no matter what. And the SoC isn't working any harder either way. The only difference that could happen is with gaming. And even then, it depends on how each game is set up and other factors.

A 1440p screen, even when set to 1080p, will still consume more than 1290p/1220p or 1080p screens.
And I remain convinced that for smartphone screens, which generally do not exceed 7", the 1290p/1220p used by iPhones, Honor, Huawei and Pixel 8 Pro, remains the ideal and the maximum to use natively.
I wish there was more special subscribe button. Thank you for doing a video like this. No one else will.
Much appreciated 👏🏿
That's wierd, this is i found On the internet. According to Android Authority, a Quad HD display uses about 12% more power than a Full HD display. Some say that a native FHD panel is more energy efficient than a QHD panel downscaled to FHD.
Each test to their own
GREAT JOB brother you got a new subscriber
Thanks for the sub 👋🏿
This was a great test, bravo but I still say do a battery drain test as the phones come right out the box just like no more people use their phone right off the box and also do a battery charge test via wireless
Dude I just did exactly what you said with the screens at their default LOOOOL. Wireless charging soon
Maybe the scaling down from its native resolution to FHD is more GPU intensive, so the benefits of running a lower resolution actually pits more stress on the phone.
This is what we call a close to real life battery drain test. Unlike other youtubers who normally test the battery drain over wifi mostly and get around 8 9 hrs of sot and sometimes 10 11 hours.
Much appreciated 👏🏿
@LoverOfTech request you to do a battery drain test on s23u or s24u on standard profile and light profile. This would be interesting to watch. Thanks.
@@zaidq82 soon
My S24 Ultra battery is draining like crazy
EDIT: Your review is honest. I love it. The SOT is around 6 to 7 hours and the phone dies. I randomly found some youtubers say this phone could go 2 days without charging. Man! Dont trust em
Glad my video helped
I think other youtubers are using it connected to wifi and not on mobile data.
But maybe, they are just over exaggerating it.
I Think Pixel Count Matters most Whilst Gaming ,where a graphics card has to work alot harder to deal with more pixels.. Thanks for these Videos,now i can shut my friend up about his iphone Battery life
Maybe so
Thank you. Finally we know the answer to one of the most often asked questions.💙💙💙
Thanks for your time man... Love to see more on refresh rate and wifi vs data...
Both tests are next in the line up so stay tuned
Alot of effort and time surely went to this. Kudos to you brother. Keep it up 🎉
Thanks a ton
Awesome review, can't believe you came up to this kind of test, love from Philippines and taiwan
More to come!
Well, samsung definitely gets better and better at battery life. They are almost equal with the iPhone this year. A year ago, they were more than an hour behind, and the year before, that i was even worse. Honestly, i think if you make those after 6 months with some software updates from samsung, they will be tied. After all this is almost completely reworked firmware, they will optimize it more for sure. Really liked this test
Fantastic comparison.
The only time when I noticed a difference was when setting my S20+ to 720p vs 1080p
Yea, going down to 720p is just criminal for such phones lol
@@LoverOfTech It was in 2022 and my S20+ Exynos was dying all the time, so energy saving (CPU throttled, 60Hz) and 720p were a must to get through most of the day.
I‘m glad I‘m not stuck with that red hot „flagship“ anymore.
@anabang1251 yea that is crazy. I will do 60Hz vs 120Hz soon
@@LoverOfTech You should do the comparison between phones at constant 120 vs constant 60 and between phones which can lower the frequency dynamically.
But in the latter case to get actual realiable results you would need to simulate (or actually do) presses/swipes etc.
If you don‘t everything static will just be 60Hz max anyways
It really isn't a huge surprise. Most ordinary apps are not designed to use the display resolution above 1080p. If you were to run a game, however, designed to use the full resolution, I guarantee you there'll be a difference in battery life.
So i switched immediately to qhd on my s23u thks man for this amazing video I'll share with friends
Awesome 👊🏿
I have been using my s23U on QHD+ since I got it and I am ending my day between 6-7hrs SOT from 90%-20%
A better approach to see if the battery effects are different is to use between Wi-Fi and mobile data so if it really makes a difference, because other battery drain test on Wi-Fi are getting 9+ hours of screen on time
That will be next so stay tuned
Great video❤ pls do another one comparing the 60hz vs the 120hz
That is also on the list
Thanks a lot for this video, it was really useful
Glad it was helpful!
Great video! Just a quick note - if you play any games then QHD will absolutely drain faster
Good to know!
is there a setting on android to drop tbe resolution while gaming to 1080p but keep everything else at 2k while not gaming?
Nice video bro u earn u self a New Sub
Thanks for the sub
Thanks for testing this and busted old myth 🤔.
I think Lower resolution will only work if its the Native Resolution, else it doesnt make sense to Downscale unless maybe in gaming for more frame?
Who knows really what the reason is 🤷🏿♂️ either way, enjoy the display at full resolution
That was great!
Can you also do this with the fold mobiles? Samsung, Google and OnePlus ? Just for fun!
Trust me that is all in the line up
@@LoverOfTech Amazing! 🔥🔥🔥
Thanks for the time you put it.Much appreciated.
Thank you for the support 🙏🏿
I think on the S22 ultra, QHD and FHD are going to make a difference. The snapdragon 8 Gen 2 and Gen 3 are optimized way better than Gen 1, just my two cents.
Nice job. Subscribed for more.
Thanks for the sub!
Thank you for these precise comparisons!
You're welcome 🤗
I'm not even remotely surprised. The displays are still 1440p, no matter what resolution you set them at. The lower-resolution setting reduces the image resolution, but the image is upscaled to fill the screen with pixel doubling via scaling. It's like playing a Nintendo Switch on your TV. The Switch only outputs at 1080p in docked mode at best. But the TV screen, which has a native display at 4K, upscales the 1080p image signal it's being fed to 4K via intelligent pixel doubling.
Your Galaxy S24+ and Ultra still have 4,492,800 pixels that make up the display and are lit up and active, showing an image no matter what resolution the display is fed. It's just that some pixels mirror one another when fed lower-resolution content rather than showing something unique from one another with native 1440p or higher content. So the screen is drawing the same amount off of the battery, no matter what. And the SoC isn't working any harder either way. The only difference that could happen is with gaming. And even then, it depends on how each game is set up and other factors.
Very hard work we watch it in just 17 mins how much its takes your time to record edit upload battery drain test unbiased bro love your commentary and blessed with the important video
Thank you for your support
Keep up the good work man!
Appreciate it!
Rocking with s23u ...2k @120hz getting 8 to 9 hrs sot with still 30 percent ledt at day end
Muito bacana os seus vídeos 👏
Eu nem sei inglês e assisto os seus vídeos aqui do Brasil 🇧🇷 porque são muito bons.
Thank you very much for your support 🙏🏿
Thanks for the new video!
