Honor Pad 9 battery life and benchmark results are in
As we are preparing the Honor Pad 9 full review, we thought we could share the results from our battery tests as well as some benchmark scores.
The tablet runs on a Snapdragon 6 Gen 1 chipset, driving the pixels on the 12.1-inch, 1600 x 2560px IPS LCD panel, which in turn supports 120Hz refresh rate. An 8,300 mAh battery keeps the lights on, but the results from our tests indicate that the cell is struggling to keep them on for long.
The Honor Pad 9 got 9:18h of Active Use Score, which is considerably lower than most competitors out there. The only one that falls short to the Honor Pad 9 is the Huawei MatePad Pro 13.2.
Honor Pad 9 battery life
In any case, there isn't just one or two test scores to blame here. The tablet scored poorly in pretty much all of our tests - web browsing, video playback and gaming. Call time is somewhat decent, but still not satisfactory.
If we look closer at the benchmark scores, they might explain the extra power draw. The Snapdragon 6 Gen 1 offers performance that's way above the average for the Honor Pad 9's price bracket. The SoC scores well in the pure CPU benchmarks as well as in combined and GPU-heavy workloads. The Xiaomi Pad 6 with the Snapdragon 870 is the only one that outpaces the SD6 Gen 1, although the Pad 6 sits above the Honor Pad 9 in terms of pricing.
