Samsung Galaxy S24+ battery life test

We're ready with the battery life test of the Galaxy S24+ and here go the results.
The Galaxy S24+ has a 4,900mAh battery - 200mAh more than its predecessor - and an LTPO panel for granular screen refresh rate control. However, the Galaxy S24+ has a higher resolution QHD+ display - a significant upgrade from 1080p. The newer phone runs an Exynos 2400 in most countries, and that's the unit we have for testing - a move away from Qualcomm's Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 and its TSMC-made 4nm process.

The Galaxy S24+ posted a lower Active Use Score than its predecessor, by an hour and 20 minutes. The newer phone beat its predecessor in just one, albeit arguably the most important, test - in the video playback loop it scored 2 hours more. Calling is down by 5 hours, browsing is half an hour less, and gaming is 2 and a half hours shorter.
We'll dive deeper into the battery score in our full review, but for now, we can say that the battery life of the Galaxy S24+ is not bad it's just not better than that of its predecessor.

The Dimensity 9300 is still more efficient than the 8 Gen 3, despite half it's cores being Cortex X4 ones.

That's nonsense. Battery life change after upgrade is not pointing to old hw. My 2ndary device is A50 with no problem and no Android 14
