jiyen235, 04 Dec 2024different tests man, and you can't trust percentages, ... moreWatch TechNick's or the TechChap's comparisons then. Go to the video playback comparisons and you'll see that the iPhones (16 pro max and 15 pro max) are neck and neck with a lot of Android phones, especially the S24U which is its biggest rival. Doesn't matter what app they use, Youtube, Tiktok, Reels, VLC, the biggest difference between them during those tests is just 1% at most, but again they have up to a 50% advantage in gsm tests.
Either the software gsm uses is just not optimized or is just completely irrelevant because it doesn't translate to real world usage.

Eduard33, 04 Dec 2024I'm not just talking about the overall result but also... moredifferent tests man, and you can't trust percentages, they're changing all the time/different on different phones. The longer a test, the more realistic it is going to be.
I do understand your skepticism but again, Phonebuff is just one of many battery testers. The coolest ones for me are TechNick and The Tech Chap, their videos reflect my real life use cases quite well. And Phonebuff is just weird man, their videos have been inconsistent for a year or two with some verdicts.

I mean, it is a nice upgrade over the 9/9S Pro, but I have expected more. The battery life is good, no question, but I feel like it should be better for a 7000+ mah battery. Also, the speakers are still tinny, the vibration motor still rather weak and the software is still somewhat buggy. Besides, for the hardware that ZTE uses here, the camera should perform way better than it actually does.

During PhoneBuff's test the Oppo and the iPhone dropped by the same exact percentage while gsmarena shows a 7h advantage for the iPhone. Same happens with the s24U and some other phones so it has to be an issue with the software they're using to test it.

Just a quick comment on battery life: Since this is a dedicated/specialized gaming phone, it makes a lot of sense to set the battery test chart to 100% gaming and then compare the numbers with other phones.
I just did that and this phone literally obliterates the competition with a 20-30% higher battery life compared with any other device, including other gaming phones and even the iPhone 16 Pro max.
OK, this should not be surprisimg, given the gargantuan 7000 mAh battery size, but still it shows that nubia took it very seriously when it comes to gaming stamina - so kudos to them.
That being said, as someone who is not interested in gaming at all, this is obviously not a phone that I am interested in, but people who like to have long gaming sessions, this pohone will certainly make a differece.

RedMagic have a winner here. Regarding the stability, it will improve soon once RedMagic releases updates for the RM10. RM9pro also started like this during the pre-release software but immediately got 95% CPU stability rate after it was updated the following weeks.
Did you guys even see the GPU stability which is super good at 90+%. And also not to mention the awesome UDC selfie cam improvement which now captures decent selfies. Within the next iteration of their UDC tech, it might be as good as the frontcam of other brands out there. And starting at only $649 without the price hikes like other brands are touting lol, RedMagic has a winner here absolutely.

Eduard33, 03 Dec 2024I just don't believe these numbers. Just don't be... morei believe in their testing, i just think there's something wrong, for example this might be due to the pre-production/pre-release software/China-only software.
Additionally, Phonebuff uses a variety of tests INCLUDING standby, those matter a lot. Different stuff uses battery differently. And Lover Of Tech does stuff on data so it's not a fair comparison. This test is just one continuous one, so makes sense why numbers will be different.
Anyways, just use these results as a ballpark. Don't trust only ONE battery test, try to check a handful of them and see if you find any trends. I trust Tom The Tech Chap's battery tests the most, my S22 Ultra has similar or worse battery life than the iPhone 13 of a relative of mine and his test was close enough back in the day. Also, keep in mind that updates nuke batteries!! So that can shift stuff a lot, sadly.

Why in the depths of hell be a twitter logo in the design? And again can redmagic invest more in the os? If they have time being quirky in the back cover can they also do it in the software end?

Jon8652, 03 Dec 2024The GPU endurance is much better than it's competitors... moreThe biggest problem in fact, is the heat of the CPU of the ALL X Elite series. True gamers look at this aspect above all, as Retrogaming and Emulation in general, take into account the CPU and not the GPU. In fact, the dissipation system performs very well with the GPU, but only because it computes at about 1Ghz. HERE is the reason for those values of about 90%. But if we take the CPU INTO ACCOUNT, we do badly, very badly. Even the iQOO 13, which cuts the GPU frequency, in the results of the various stress benchmarks, was the best in the X Elite category, with about a percentage ratio of 70% of the maintenance of overall performance on the CPU. Great for a Wine. And as a comparison to the current X Elite, the SnapDragon Gen 3 in my RedMagic 9 Pro (not that crappy S), it performs even better in the same tests. So waiting between this next Device and a K80 Pro, which should at least promise on paper a more balanced management of the Perf/Watt/Temp side.

I would expect more from... morethats gsm arena for you..they run test in maximum screen refresh rate in this case 60 - 144... in native 144 rr this phone still okay battery life..but put it in 60 refresh rate i bet the web viewing, video playback time would be twice longer... 1440 screen resolution is taxing for the gpu too so dunno wether redmagic have 1080/720 downscale resolution setting but for gaming phone this feature is missed opportunity if they dont have that...
