A new video from YouTuber TechDroider shows the Galaxy Z Flip 4 and Galaxy Z Fold 4 (4,400 mAh) testing their battery life. These phones go up against Samsung’s Galaxy S22 Ultra (5,000mAh), Apple iPhone 13 Pro Max (4,352mAh), OnePlus 10 Pro (5,000mAh) and Xiaomi 12S Ultra (4,860mAh). Surprisingly, the Galaxy Z Flip 4 and Galaxy Z Fold 4 outperform the Galaxy S22 Ultra despite the smaller battery capacity.

Galaxy Z Flip 4, Galaxy Z Fold 4 battery life results

In a test that takes the phones through gaming, web browsing and social media apps, the Galaxy S22 Ultra was the first phone to die. It lasted 8 hours and 56 minutes on a single charge and its temperature was around 50.4°C. The Galaxy Z Flip 4 lasted 9 hours and 4 minutes and its temperature was 42°C. The Galaxy Z Fold 4 managed to last 9 hours and 18 minutes on a single charge. His temperature was around 39.7°C. Both new foldable phones managed to last longer and run cooler than the Galaxy S22 Ultra. This shows how efficient the new Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 chipset is compared to Snapdragon 8 Gen 1. TSMC’s 4nm process looks much better than Samsung Foundry’s 4nm process. The OnePlus 10 Pro lasted just a minute longer than the Galaxy Z Fold 4, but it was hotter (45°C). The Xiaomi 12S Ultra, which uses the Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 processor, lasted 9 hours and 38 minutes on a single charge, but was almost as hot (44.1°C) as the OnePlus 10 Pro. The iPhone 13 Pro Max had the best battery life with a run time of 10 hours and 35 minutes, but it was slightly warmer (40.5°C) than the Galaxy Z Fold 4. SamsungGalaxy Z Flip 4 SamsungGalaxy Z Fold 4
