Microsoft Lumia 535 Dual SIM battery life test

The Microsoft Lumia 535 Dual SIM offers big screen estate and dual-SIM option on a budget price, something many Windows Phone fans will appreciate. The Snapdragon 200 chip isn’t among the popular choices nowadays and even though its uninspiring GPU performance, we are eager to see how it will affect the battery life performance.

Naturally, now that the Lumia 535 review is pinned on our homepage, we are ready to post our complete battery life test breakdown. Shall we?

Microsoft promises the Lumia 535 (both the single- and dual-SIM flavors) are going to last about 13 hours on 3G talks. We put this statement to test and found it to be about right. The Lumia 535 Dual SIM battery packed enough juice to last a notch below 13h of 3G calling.

We expect that the single-SIM model will have about the same endurance, because the dual SIM model we tested has only one SIM active during a call.

Next we hooked up the Lumia 535 on our web script, which tests the web browsing endurance. The Microsoft Lumia 535 did quite poorly, lasting only about 5 hours and 21 minutes. We guess that the big, power-hungry screen and poor software optimizations are probably to blame.

Finally, the Lumia 535 lasted 5 and a half hours on looped video playback before its battery dropped down to 10%. This is another disappointing performance.

The dual-SIM flavor of Microsoft Lumia 535 performs OK, when left on standby mode and its battery will probably keep it going for about 8 to 9 days. If you are using only one SIM card, you may get an additional 2 or 3 days.

So, the Microsoft Lumia 535 Dual SIM posted an overall 44 hour endurance rating, meaning you can use the smartphone for about two days if you do an hour each of calling, web browsing, and watching videos daily. It is far from impressive, even for a dual-SIM smartphone.

Our proprietary score also includes a standby battery draw test, which is not featured in our battery test scorecard but is calculated in the total endurance rating.
Also note, that if you turn off 3G data and location services, you will get a noticeably better result than that, but that goes for most other smartphones as well, hence our standardized usage test.
