Battery Impact between 4G and 5G – Latest information and updates from the ViserMark Lab At ViserMark and through our technical lab SmartViser, we regularly receive questions about the impact of 5G on device battery performance. Some of the questions we receive, which we will aim to answer below, are: Should I switch to 5G to preserve more battery life? What is the impact of using 5G on the Battery life? What is the impact of the network on my device's battery life? Do different 5G networks have different impacts? Do device manufacturers optimise their software to improve battery life performance when using 5G How does 5G impact the battery life of my smartphone? What is the drain battery percentage by using 5G vs 4G? This is a very hot topic among end-users, device manufacturers, Mobile Network Operators (MNOs), and MVNOs. Since the beginning of the network evolution 2G->3G->4G->5G NR (NSA and SA)*, we see a continued trend of the increased impact these technologies have on the battery life and performance of a mobile or smartphone device. *5G NR (New Radio) is a new radio access technology (RAT) developed by 3GPP for the 5G (fifth generation) mobile network. The non-standalone (NSA) mode of 5G NR refers to a 5G NR deployment option that depends on an existing 4G LTE network for control functions. The standalone (SA) mode of 5G NR refers to using 5G cells for signalling and information transfer. It includes the new 5G Packet Core architecture instead of relying on the 4G Evolved Packet Core to allow the deployment of 5G without the LTE network. At ViserMark lab, we have seen assessing the launch of the first 5G NSA (Non-Stand Alone) since it has become commercially available in several different countries and networks with a specific focus in France and the UK. Since the launch of the first commercial 5G NSA networks, the following have been noted during our testing: There is an impact on the battery life of about 10% more battery usage on 5G vs 4G Web loading performance and throughput rates / Data were, on average, 20% better in 5SA than in 4G, as expected Smartphone manufacturers have been looking for ways to optimise their software that utilises 5G services in the best way to minimise the impact on the battery. The early 5G capable devices, once 5G NSA coverage is available, will camp on this all the time. Almost all device manufacturers have included unique optimisation in their software to only use 5G in use cases where 5G will make a difference. For example, if you are in an area with good 5G NSA coverage and browsing the web, 5G will be utilised as it significantly enhances the user experience. If, on the other hand, the device is in an area with radio conditions leading to 5G not bringing a significant advantage in performance to balance higher power drain, then the device may decide to stay in 4G. However, the 5G icon will remain displayed. This optimisation is implemented in two main setups: The majority of manufacturers, especially Android devices. Software is optimised, and the end-user has no control over how the devices select to utilise 5G. The user has control over how the 5G option is managed. The example below shows how Apple devices operate this option. Apple offers detailed instructions on 5G icons and Software optimisation. For more details, see here. Screenshot from Apple 12 model in SW 15.4.1 Apple offers detailed instructions on 5G icons and Software optimisation. For more details, see here. Samsung also has special support for 5G and software optimisation. More details can be found here. Unlike Apple, Samsung and Google Pixel do not only offer the option to switch to 5G without any further control over how 5G is utilised. Conclusion Based on the testing we have performed, there is an impact on the battery life of about 10% between 4G vs 5G on use cases that benefit from the 5G services. ** Data transfer speed exceeds 20% on average, meaning 5G is faster than 4G, so it's up to users to decide whether this is an acceptable trade-off. If the device offers the 5G battery optimisation option, ensure it is selected for better performance and battery life. As the first 5G SA networks appear in 2022, we will be checking the impact on the device and if there is a substantial difference between 5G NSA vs 5G SA. **Results from mainly France and UK networks Don’t miss out on news, competitions, and the latest tech info; subscribe to our newsletter.

Imagine a world where the phrase "battery low" no longer sends a shiver down your spine and where a single minute is all it takes to recharge your smartphone fully. This vision is no longer a far-fetched fantasy but an emerging reality, thanks to groundbreaking research from the University of Colorado . This innovative study, led by chemical engineer  Ankur Gupta  and published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences (PNAS) , promises to revolutionise our approach to battery technology through supercapacitors.  The Supercapacitor Advantage  At the heart of this innovation lies the supercapacitor—a device that merges the best properties of batteries and capacitors. Unlike traditional batteries, which store energy through chemical reactions, supercapacitors store and release energy quickly by moving ions within porous materials. This process not only allows for rapid charging and discharging but also significantly extends the lifespan of the energy storage device. The key breakthrough in Gupta's research is the enhanced movement of ions through supercapacitors. By applying principles from the study of fluid flow in porous materials, typically used in water filtration and oil extraction, Gupta's team has developed a new model for studying and optimising the behaviour of ions within these devices. This model could drastically improve the efficiency of supercapacitors, making it feasible to charge a smartphone in just one minute. How Supercapacitors Work To understand why this is revolutionary, it’s essential to grasp the basic working principle of a supercapacitor. Traditional batteries rely on chemical reactions to store energy, which can degrade over time. Supercapacitors, however, create an electric field that holds ions on the surface of porous electrodes. This method eliminates the wear and tear associated with chemical reactions, thereby increasing the durability and speed of the device.  A capacitor, fundamentally, consists of two conductive plates separated by an insulating material known as a dielectric. When voltage is applied, an electric field is created, storing energy. Supercapacitors expand on this concept by using porous materials to maximise the surface area for ion storage, significantly boosting their capacity and speed.  Energy Density vs. Power Density     Supercapacitors excel in power density, meaning they can deliver a large amount of energy quickly, which is ideal for applications requiring quick bursts of power. However, their energy density—how much energy they store per unit volume or weight—is significantly lower than lithium-ion batteries. This lower energy density means that devices powered solely by supercapacitors need more frequent recharging than traditional batteries. This could translate to shorter driving ranges for applications like electric vehicles unless substantial energy storage capacity advancements are achieved. Self-Discharge and Longevity  Supercapacitors have one notable drawback - their higher self-discharge rate than batteries. This means that supercapacitors lose stored energy more quickly when not in use, which can be a disadvantage for long-term energy storage applications. However, supercapacitors have a much longer lifespan in terms of charge/discharge cycles. They can withstand over a million cycles without significant degradation, whereas lithium-ion batteries typically endure only a few thousand cycles. This durability could lead to fewer replacements, lower long-term costs, and a reduced environmental impact. Material and Environmental Considerations  The materials utilised in supercapacitors, like activated carbon and newer nanostructured materials such as MXenes, are generally more sustainable and accessible for recycling than those used in lithium-ion batteries. This makes supercapacitors a more environmentally friendly material sourcing and end-of-life disposal option. However, optimising the production processes for these advanced materials is important to minimise their environmental impact. Hybrid Systems   Researchers are exploring hybrid systems that combine the strengths of both technologies. These systems can utilize supercapacitors to handle sudden power demands while depending on batteries for long-term energy storage. This combination could alleviate some of the limitations of each technology, providing a well-rounded solution for various applications, from consumer electronics to electric vehicles. Overcoming the Challenges  While the potential benefits of supercapacitors are immense, several challenges remain before they can be widely adopted in consumer electronics. One significant hurdle is ensuring that the infrastructure for charging these devices can handle the high currents required for rapid energy transfer. Researchers are exploring hybrid systems that combine the strengths of both technologies. These systems can utilise supercapacitors to handle sudden power demands while depending on batteries for long-term energy storage. This combination could alleviate each technology's limitations, providing a well-rounded solution for various applications, from consumer electronics to electric vehicles.   Economic and Environmental Impacts  Transitioning from traditional batteries to supercapacitors also raises essential economic and environmental considerations. The production and disposal of batteries pose significant environmental challenges, including extracting raw materials and generating electronic waste. Supercapacitors, with their longer lifespan and rapid charging capabilities, could reduce the frequency of battery replacements and lessen environmental impact. It's important to scrutinize the manufacturing processes for supercapacitors in terms of their environmental footprint. Scaling production to meet global demand responsibly is crucial for any new technology. This involves responsibly sourcing materials and ensuring that the disposal of supercapacitors at the end of their life does not create new environmental hazards. Future Prospects and Applications  The implications of supercapacitor technology extend far beyond smartphones. Electric vehicles, laptops, and even large-scale energy storage systems benefit from supercapacitors' rapid charging capabilities and durability. In electric cars, for instance, reducing charging times from hours to minutes could significantly enhance convenience and usability, potentially accelerating the adoption of electric mobility. Furthermore, the Internet of Things (IoT) and wearable devices could substantially advance by integrating supercapacitors. The ability to rapidly recharge these devices without frequent battery replacements would make them more practical and efficient for everyday use. Conclusion  The research led by Ankur Gupta and his team at the University of Colorado marks a pivotal step towards a future where battery anxiety is a thing of the past. By leveraging the unique properties of supercapacitors, this innovation promises to revolutionise how we charge our devices and usher in a new era of sustainable and efficient energy storage.  Undeniably, the path to widespread adoption of this transformative technology will be challenging. However, the potential benefits - from a significant reduction in electronic waste to improved performance and convenience - make this an exciting frontier for researchers and consumers. The possibility of charging our devices in mere seconds is on the horizon, and it's a future that looks incredibly promising. Watch an interview with Ankur Gupta on CNN News where he explains a new technology that can charge laptops, and phones in just a minute.

NEW BATTERY CONSUMPTION Samsung Galaxy A55 5G battery review with viSer and VWS Analytics Studio The Samsung Galaxy A55 5G battery life details, as analysed using SmartViser's viSer and VWS Analytics Studio, provide a technical and detailed perspective on the smartphone's battery consumption. The platform's capability to monitor and access real-time test results explains how the Samsung Galaxy A55 5G manages power under various daily user tasks. ViserMark can identify the strengths and weaknesses of smartphones by comparing battery usage across similar devices, enabling potential buyers to choose the best smartphone based on their usage patterns. We compare the Samsung Galaxy A55 5G's energy consumption with the industry's average Mid Tier (€200-€499) smartphones across a range of everyday activities to see how it performs in milliampere hours (mAh). The following test results demonstrate that different activities have varying impacts on the battery life of a smartphone. For those considering purchasing the Samsung Galaxy A55 5G, activities like social media browsing and gaming will use up the most battery. However, activities requiring less energy, such as listening to music or managing emails, will not drain the battery as quickly, meaning that the smartphone can be used longer before recharging. Battery Consumption Results provided by viSer developed SmartViser. Additionally, the data highlights the Samsung Galaxy A55 5G's strong battery performance across a range of everyday smartphone activities. This reinforces the smartphone's suitability for users who rely on their phones for a mix of communications, media consumption, and productivity throughout the day. With such extended battery life, the Samsung Galaxy A55 5G will meet most users' needs without the constant worry of recharging it. These insights show that the Samsung Galaxy A55 5G offers a competitive battery life advantage over the average mid-tier smartphone, particularly in overall battery life. While it does consume more power for specific activities like social media and calling, it maintains or surpasses efficiency in other areas like gaming and downloading. The slightly higher power consumption in certain areas may be justified by enhanced features or a better user experience that Samsung provides. Analysing Battery Efficiency: Samsung Galaxy A55 5G vs Xiaomi Redmi Note 13 5G Smartphone Comparison The Samsung Galaxy A55 5G shows more robust battery performance across almost all activities than the Xiaomi Redmi Note 13 5G, with a noticeable edge in average daily battery life. These results suggest that the  Samsung Galaxy A55 5G could be a better choice for users who need a phone that can last longer on a single charge, especially if they are heavy social media users, enjoy gaming, or frequently use their phone for photography. Battery Consumption Results provided by viSer developed SmartViser. It's worth noting that these are just battery consumption metrics. Before deciding, potential buyers should also consider other aspects, such as performance, camera quality, software experience, and price. The Xiaomi Redmi Note 13 5G may offer different advantages or features not captured by the battery tests, making it a preferable choice for some users. Analysing Battery Efficiency: Samsung Galaxy A55 5G vs Samsung Galaxy A54 Smartphone Comparison Despite the Samsung Galaxy A55 5G consuming more power for most tasks, its average battery life is notably longer by 10 hours. This indicates a significant improvement in overall battery management and optimisation in the newer model. Battery Consumption Results provided by viSer developed SmartViser. For users of the Samsung Galaxy A54, the decision to upgrade to the Samsung Galaxy A55 would depend on how the improvements align with their needs. If the extended battery life and potentially improved performance in areas like gaming are critical, the Samsung Galaxy A55 would be a compelling upgrade. However, the Samsung Galaxy A54 already meets their needs, and the additional battery consumption in the Samsung Galaxy A55 for tasks like social media and calling isn't justified by their usage patterns.
