The test on the battery of Xperia ion
version distributed by AT&T gave a medium result though web-browsing
ability was pretty good.
Xperia
ion LTE’s battery has a capacity of 1,900 mAh
The AT&T version of Xperia ion is
different from the worldwide version in high speed 4F LTE supporting. Either
version is all equipped with a Qualcomm Snapdragon S3 dual-core processor
(1.5GHz) with 4.5inch screen (1,260x720 pixels).
With fair specs and an average screen size,
1,900mAh battery, as usual, cannot ensure a long operation.
Talk
time result
In the first test, Xperia ion LTE’s talk
time via 3G was almost forgotten with only 5 hours 22 minutes. It ranked nearly
at the bottom among untested smartphones.
This was the worst performance of Xperia
ion LTE in all four tests.
Web
browsing result
However, in web browsing test, the LCD
screen with LED backlight of the model was very energy-saving. The device was
able to handle within 5 hours and 56 minutes before the battery was run out.
This result has brought Xperia ion LTE
among those smartphones that have best web browsing time.
Video
playback result
In video playback test, this phone showed a
mediocre performance in 6 hours and 3 minutes. Xperia ion LTE ranked at the
same position of Galaxy, Nexus and Sensation XL.
For one hour of talking, web browsing and
video playing per day, the user has to fully recharge the battery after 31
hours using. This number didn’t reach the average of our tested models.
The battery result of Xperia ion LTE didn’t
surprise us due to our first predication for its specs. However, with an
improvement in talk time, the product deserves a better performance.
