Honor 5C battery put to the test

The Honor 5C from Huawei is the newest entrant in the smartphone market today. It has a 3000mAh battery, and runs on the HiSilicon Kirin 650 SoC. Built on the 16nm process, the SoC is both battery efficient and powerful. This allows the 3000mAh battery on the Honor 5C to last as long as a 4000mAh unit, on other phones. Android Marshmallow’s Doze mode also chips in, with lower battery drain during idle hours. The idle battery drop on the Honor 5C isn’t as high as it is on non-Marshmallow driven phones.

Here is a battery comparison of the Honor 5C with its competitors.

In its price segment, the Honor 5C fills a gaping hole, with its appreciable battery life. The phone will easily last a full day on single charge for heavy users. For average users, the Honor 5C is capable of lasting for 2 days on a single charge. A big plus if you are looking for a performance based smartphone that does well in the battery-life department.

How does the Honor 5C achieve it?
The Honor 5C manages to pull ahead of the competition in the battery-life department by using a clever combination of a power efficient 16nm Kirin 650 SoC along with a high density 650 Wh/L compact 3000mAh battery pack. This allows the Honor 5C to offer high performance on both, processing as well as battery-life front, while keeping the dimensions and weight in check. Android 6.0's ‘Doze Mode’ and Huawei's 3.0 power-saving technology further help the Honor 5C to extract every bit of extra performance from the 3000mAh battery, allowing it to run that extra mile when you need it the most.

Compact, light and power efficient:
With good performance and long battery life, the Honor 5C is placed at an advantage, especially when you consider the fact that the Honor 5C is one of those rare compact devices with a 5.2-inch display. Making it more manageable and easy to carry in comparison to all the other new smartphones in its price segment.
