Samsung Galaxy S II Plus battery life test results are in

Yesterday we published our in-depth Galaxy S II Plus review and now is the time to share the details of its battery test with you.

The smartphone offers the same battery as its predecessor, but offers a more efficient chipset and a new Android release, which should lead to an improvement in its endurance.

Our first test, as usual, is all about talking. The Samsung Galaxy S II Plus did a lot better than the original Galaxy S II (Gingerbread and Ice Cream Sandwich ROMs) lasting 11 hours of 3G calls – an excellent score. Don’t forget to use the EXPAND button for more results.

Finally, on the video playback test the Plus battery died at exactly 10 hours – one of the top 8 results in our chart so far – two hour more from its Galaxy S II sibling. We suppose the Broadcom GPU has to be credited here.

At the end the Galaxy S II Plus managed a 50 hours endurance rating, meaning you’ll need to charge your phone every 50 hours, that’s more than two days, if you use your phone for 1 hour of video playback, web browsing and 3G talk each day.
