The fact that you went as far as to measure the brightness to make sure it's down to the nits about the same just shows the quality of the work you put into these videos gang... I see you 🔥🔥

The fact that the Samsung with its battery size compites toe to toe with the Pixel which has a weaker processor and a bigger battery and the iPhone 15 that has a 60hz display is amazing. Samsung did a great job this year with their S lineup.

Watching this on my S23 🙂 . Quite happy with the results. Thank you for accepting my request for this comparison. I've noticed that the Pixel 8 performed better on KZfaq & KZfaq Music apps compared to others. Maybe Google optimised its apps to run efficiently on pixel devices.

The patience you have for these videos is unmatched 💪🏽💪🏽.

They all did comparable, only 30 minutes difference, which doesn't change your life. That is very good for relatively compact phones with smaller batteries than their top-tier lineups. I have the S23 and can confirm it does warm up more than I expected, but never too hot. But relative to expectations in apps like Twitter, you can feel its warmth when I do not expect that. The iPhone had the best thermals but, again, no game-changer. Obviously, with nearly a 40% larger battery, I expected the Pixel 8 to be 2+ hours better than the iPhone, but the Tensor 3 is less efficient than the newer chips in the iPhone. 120Hz will make little difference as many apps run at 60Hz (camera, video, benchmarks), and even Twitter and Instagram will only use 120Hz for a fraction of a second per scroll. I would be happy with any of these, as 8+ hours is about twice my daily need! Great job!

Samsung has done a very good job with the s series this time, even after having a smaller capacity battery than the iphone and pixel it stands out very good in competition though

Never seen this channel before but I really like how detailed and well organized this video was done! Would've been interesting to see a 8h "sleep" test to see the standby drain! Keep it up!

I just remembered my S20 and its 51°C while playing PUBG. Beautiful times. 😂 Now pretty happy with s23 (EU so finally with SD).

phenomenal video i know who to find when i need to see a battery comparison now. i just have 2 suggestion the first is that you should check temps on the whole phone including the sides and the backs and in different points. the second suggestion is that make another video using the most optimized settings on all phones which does not affect user experience which includes the light performance profile on samsung or using 1440p phones with 1080p setting but not changing the refresh rate cause it makes a huge impact on user experience. i think the people who really care about battery life would like to see the best they can get from a phone without sacrificing the experience. thank you.

Thanks for sharing. Interesting results. I do enjoy this kind of test. Blessings on your day!

Was waiting for this for a long time, you have gained a sub.

This is pure awesome. One additional thought is that you could just create a graph at the end how much battery power each app drained. I'm not gaming, but using web and YT/Music a lot. I could go back and check how much % that app used up, but a neat graph is easy to make and read. FYI YT: 9%, 5%(!), 9%, YT music: 7%, 6%, 5%. Again, thanks for the review, you shall become a top reviewer here.

Much love from Haiti, great content as always, mate. 😊

Appreciate the content bruv❤

Great video man!

Absolutely amazing analysis, crystal clear and straightforward. Unrelated but your accent is nice as well lol. Appreciate your efforts!

Great stuff buddy. Suggestions: 1. Change settings so that display stays on always. 2. Try to match refresh rates like you matched brightness as it may have impact on consumption. (That would be fair since otherwise iPhone has an advantage as its only utilizes 60Hz while others push almost double of this)

Loved this comparison. Great work ! Keep it going 🎉

Always lovely to see more helpful videos with good detailed person, thank you ( If you have time and dears do the pixel 7a vs s23fe ) I'm hearing alot of arguments about them....

Thanks for the video. It's good to see this test on the regular phones.

Great battery comparison! A more realistic usage would be each test to consist of half an hour on 4g/5g and the other half on wifi. You can also use maps alongside with KZfaq Music.

Thanks for doing this -- next time I would like to see how the phones do when idling, which if implemented in your tests would have allowed you to go to sleep and check them all in the morning! lol

The s23 drops to 24hz, the big mistake is taking the data from general media, just activate "show screen refresh" in development options.

You are easily one of the best phone channels on KZfaq! Do you plan on testing (camera, battery, etc.) the Xiaomi 13T? Seems like a flagship killer with these fast-dropping prices, but some reviewers love it and some are critical of it. What would interest me too is if you do plan on testing it, could you also try how GCam impacts photo quality on it?

Got the s23 for 9 months now very pleased with the phone overall gonna buy the s24 as soon as it comes out hope to get bigger sensor and lil bit faster cpu and charging rate

Hi! Thanks for such a good comparison. There is only one thing I'd like to make sure (maybe I missed it from the video). Is your Pixel 8 set on the Smooth Display? It is capped at 60Hz out of the box and many other reviewers missed this point ending up saying that it has an "incredible" battery life.

They are all excellent, but I was surprised by Pixel 8, thank you ❤

Thx for this Video greets from germany

These benchmark test are the only thing thay can push the 8 Gen2 to its limit, when I antutu bench test my S23 it became hot it made me worry because it doesn't get hot when playing CODM or Wildrift at 120FPS even with screen recording on. I'm also surprised to see how efficient it is, if you didn't do 3dmark at the end it might have been closer or the s23 takin the w

Great video 👊 i would really love to see a battery test with phones using cellular connection. Loving your stuff!

thanks for this video good sir! doing real life battery test aint easy for sure!!

This year Google made some crazy battery optimisation with the pixel 8 series even when it runs the Tensor G3!

Bro many thanks for doing this thorough comparison much appreciated. I'm surprised this is just the Pixel 8 and not even the Pro version that took the cake!

Best battery comp I've seen. Thank you.

I like your commentary as much as I like battery tests (I really, really do). My suggestion is: go to sleep instead of staying up so late and test standby drainage for 12h or so. For those of us who get about 2h of screen-on daily it might be a far more important measurement. Seriously, not enough youtubers do that.

Great test. Just subscribed

Great video, one of the most informative I've seen for the last weeks. How would you explain the (good) performance of Pixel 8 comapred to all the negative reviews I've read about battery life since its launch?

Very useful with real day to day usage .

Such an authentic review. Thank you!

I heard the battery life of the S23 got worse after the One UI 6 update, but it's held up well here. I'd like to know if you did a factory reset after the update. Thanks.

Wasn't expecting that result. It might mean good things for the Exynos 2400, which will share the same updated fabrication as Tensor G3.

As usual Ben thanks for covering the peasant models as floss would say.

Thanks for this EXTREME Battery ♥

When are the big boys of these battery comparison coming plz share. Cant wait, really optimistic about 8 pro, but that one is a really tough fight we all know. Do let us know bro. And well done 👍🏻👍🏻

Thank you for this comparison video❤

the best battle tech in YT congratts

Watching on my pixel 6 😊 Great video, thanks man.

Battery tests without sims don't make any sense. Thanks much for a valuable video 🎉

Hey man loving ur effort, bdw qanna ask (as i have bought a pixel 8 this week) how exactly is the battery of pixel 8 vs the iphone 15 ? As i have seen reviews who claim we get 1.5 hrs of SOT more on the iPhone and its more reliable during the last 15%. Also my pixel 8 battery hasn't been great. Shall i wait for the adaptive battery as Google claims, to kick in or return and get an iPhone?

Most reviewers said Pixel 8 has bad battery and heating issue, seems like groundless take. Great video, sold me on the pixel. Also how does apple get away with worst hardware but most expensive is beyond me, apple sheep just buys anything I guess

Great comparison. Very surprised about the pixel 8

Great work bro new subscriber

impressive results from these brands ! Since iPhone X, the battery was so much better than android Flagships, its very fortunate how Android companies took so much time to equalize Apple. The most surprising is the S23, 675mAh less than Pixel 8 and still onlly 4 min difference between them ! Snapdragon 8gen2 is an absolute banger !

They all did better than I thought they would, thought the S23 would go first,

The pixel 8 is actually doing pretty good, even though their processor is behind. I hope the battery is amazing when they switch to TSMC

Great video and amazing dedication 🎉 I really expected the Pixel to come in last. Thankfully it didn't since i convinced my wife to switch to Android and buy a Pixel 8.

Thanks for doing this

Love this video Subscribed Please make it more interesting with more and more devices Me personally am rooting for Asus devices as they are well optimised (I use rog phone 7 and it's incredible) I want more people to know about Asus and their phones

All of them did a good job but i really didnt expect the pixel 8 will be thats huge improvment over thr pixel 7.

11:22 I feel your pain :D Thanks for the video ! Battery life is very important to me. One of the main criteria that I take into consideration when buying a new phone.

Thank you for using 60 fps for a battery test. Pure pleasure to watch during breakfast. 🤣

Thanks

Asus zenfone 10 is the ultimate battery king in compact phones’ world

Great Comparison

Hey, thanks for all the work and it was a great job though I have to say because you use just Wi-Fi doesn’t really represent real world use as the modem on the pixel 8 is definitely inferior to the modem that are on the galaxy and the iPhone and I’m saying yes as a person who has a pixel eight, so not hating on the pixel, but these results would be a lot different. If you use data. I understand using data would be difficult. You’d have to have three of the same chips on the same carrier but that would be a real world use. This is actually testing how these phones work on Wi-Fi not realistic every day use.

Great video bro ❤

8 hours if SOT is more than enough for most people, I see the work you are doing and I just want to say thank you for it. With all these test when do you even find time to rest?

Thank you for the great test of the three devices. I would be interested in a test in pure mobile communications. Would it be possible for you to do this with the three devices? In mobile communications, the Pixel 8 is not particularly good in terms of battery life. It would be very interesting to see how it compares to the other two devices. Kind regards from Berlin ;-)

Not going to lie. Got a pixel 7 when it came out and could barely see over 5 1/2 hours of SOT. I returned it within the return window. Decided to give the pixel 8 a try and to my surprise i can actually get over 8 1/2 hours of SOT. So now im keeping lol

I am a big fan of your videos...Love from India...❤❤❤

Just goes to show that when there's competition in the market place, we the consumer are the winners.

Pixel for the win, battery gains from Google this year are great

3DMark drained S23 because although it's much more efficient chip when it's on low power demand but as soon as you want it to supply power it's right there and more power requires more energy hence drained more battery...

I'm considering these 3 models and I'm confused by the final results as I've read very awful reviews about Pixel 8 consumption under cellular data. Maybe the issue is only under 5G, do you know nothing about?

Really trying to find a battery test with the Samsung s23 fe. Phone is on a very good sale. I'm just worried about battery life on the 8 gen 1

First! Currently watching on my S23 Ultra

Dope!

Very nice test, but I would like to see the same test but when the phones use the LTE network and not Wi-Fi

Samsung Galaxy S23 8/256 with UFS 4.0 or 8/128 with UFS 3.1?

Hello bro what should i buy s23+ or iPhone 13 if my priority is the camera and shooting videos or photos. Both of them are the same price (600$).

I really am thinking about getting the pixel 8 pro but I’ve always had an apple. I don’t use FaceTime that much other than friends here and there. I love pictures so that’s why I’m leaning towards the pixel, please lmk ur thoughts and if I should. (I haven’t used android in a couple years)

So you did not change the adaptive refresh rate of samsung and pixel fixed to 60hz and they still outlasted apple?

Brother can you please explain me how come your s23 is showing a full charge will last upto 4 days cause my s23 shows only 23 hr ????

Amazing test, would be great if put gps include

Impressive test, other KZfaqrs take note...

Can you use a higher brightness of 500 or 600 nits from next time as 200 is too low Also what was speaker volume like what percent

Ive ordered s23 hope it doesnt disappoint me with battery depending on my non gaming social apps, photography and youtube usage...shld i upgrade to one ui6?? Plz lmk anyone

Google is so underrated, I got the iPhone 15 and the battery is terrible after only about 2 months of having it and the amount of times it gets so hot to even hold is crazy. Definitely gonna go back to a Google

Great battery test. Were the batteries on all 3 of these phones relatively new? I know the Pixel 8 just came out just over a month ago. Were the other 2 phones batteries about the same age? Seems like the best performance I get from a new phone battery is in the first 6 or so months then its a slow decline over time.

Isn't running 3DMark unfair? If the scores mean nothing in this test then why let some CPUs push harder than the others? I feel like this part just punishes faster CPUs. Also 3DMark is not an app you would use daily like the others, I would replace this with an internet browsing test instead. Having said that, I think this was a really good test, awesome job sir!

Production quality 🫡👍🏽

Watching on s23❤

S2 3 is the best here. Cz it has a full display also small battery capacity and 120hz display serves this much??

Great video

really surprised with the pixel, i have seen so many other reviewers posting 4-5 hrs SOT. i don't understand how this managed to go that long. is it because it ran on wi fi ? i really want to buy a pixel but i am on the fence because of the battery life reports.

You should have tested all the phones to only 60hz, as its more demanding running 60-120 hz adaptive.

The Pixel. Great phone.

Pixel 8 is nice working long lasting battery life 8 hours +. I like it.

watching on s23 happy with performance

Hi, nice comparison. I looking for new phone, there are pixel 8 and s23, in Ukraine pixel little bit more expensive?
