Pros
- Excellent outdoor autonomy especially while calling or using social apps
Cons
- High discharge currents while gaming and using the camera on the go
- Charger shows slightly high residual power consumption
The Honor 200 stands out for its well-balanced performance in battery life, charging speed, and efficiency, reflecting a highly optimized system.
With close to 3 days of autonomy under moderate use, the device performed impressively, losing only around 1% of battery power overnight during indoor tests. In most use cases, its battery life was above average, except for gaming and video streaming in 4G. On-the-go usage showed strong results, especially regarding social apps and calls.
Equipped with a 5200 mAh battery and a 100W fast charger, the Honor 200 can fully recharge in around 1 hour, faster than the industry average. A quick 5-minute charge offers almost 10 hours of battery life, a valuable feature for users on the move.
The Honor 200’s efficiency is also noteworthy, but some slight power drain might occur while using the camera or gaming. Despite this, the Honor 200’s overall battery performance ranks it among the top devices in the high-end segment, offering an optimal balance between autonomy, charging speed, and power management.

A robot housed in a Faraday cage performs a set of touch-based user actions during what we call our “typical usage scenario” (TUS) — making calls, video streaming, etc. — 4 hours of active use over the course of a 16-hour period, plus 8 hours of “sleep.” The robot repeats this set of actions every day until the device runs out of power.

Using a smartphone on the go takes a toll on autonomy because of extra “hidden” demands, such as the continuous signaling associated with cellphone network selection, for example. DXOMARK Battery experts take the phone outdoors and perform a precisely defined set of activities while following the same three-hour travel itinerary (walking, taking the bus, the subway…) for each device

For this series of tests, the smartphone returns to the Faraday cage and our robots repeatedly perform actions linked to one specific use case (such as gaming, video streaming, etc.) at a time. Starting from an 80% charge, all devices are tested until they have expended at least 5% of their battery power.

How Charging score is composed
Charging is fully part of the overall battery experience. In some situations where autonomy is at a minimum, knowing how fast you can charge becomes a concern. The DXOMARK Battery charging score is composed of two sub-scores, (1) Full charge and (2) Quick boost.
125
Realme GT Neo 5 (240W)
Realme GT Neo 5 (240W)
Full charge tests assess the reliability of the battery power gauge; measure how long and how much power the battery takes to charge from zero to 80% capacity, from 80 to 100% as shown by the UI, and until an actual full charge.

How Efficiency score is composed
The DXOMARK power efficiency score consists of two sub-scores, Charge up and Discharge rate, both of which combine data obtained during robot-based typical usage scenario, calibrated tests and charging evaluation, taking into consideration the device’s battery capacity. DXOMARK calculate the annual power consumption of the product, shown on below graph, which is representative of the overall efficiency during a charge and when in use.

The charge up sub-score is a combination of four factors: the overall efficiency of a full charge, related to how much energy you need to fill up the battery compared to the energy that the battery can provide; the efficiency of the travel adapter when it comes to transferring power from an outlet to your phone; the residual consumption when your phone is fully charged and still plugged into the charger; and the residual consumption of the charger itself, when the smartphone is disconnected from it. The chart here below shows the overall efficiency of a full charge in %.

The discharge subscore rates the speed of a battery’s discharge during a test, which is independent of the battery’s capacity. It is the ratio of a battery’s capacity divided by its autonomy. A small-capacity battery could have the same autonomy as a large-capacity battery, indicating that the device is well-optimized, with a low discharge rate.
