Pros
- 8 hours and 19 minutes recovered after a 5-minute charge
- Very fast wired charging, taking less than 30 minutes to a full charge
- Good autonomy when gaming and using the camera
- Decent autonomy when calling or using social apps on-the-go
Cons
- Slightly higher-than-average discharge currents, except when on the go
- High consumption during idle time
- 3% lost per night on average
- Poor autonomy when streaming music
The OnePlus 11 performed well in our battery test protocols and obtained a very good global score thanks to an excellent charge experience.
The OnePlus 11’s autonomy was slightly below average. When used moderately, the 5000 mAh battery lasted only a bit more than 2 days. The autonomy was poor during the idle phase and music streaming, but decent when watching videos and gaming, and quite good when on-the-go.
The device’s powerful 100W charger, which comes in the box, provided an excellent charging experience. Indeed, it took only 18 minutes to charge 80% of the battery capacity and 29 minutes to reach a full charge. The autonomy gained after a quick 5-minute boost was also excellent at more than 8 hours.
The charge efficiency was also very good, but the adapter efficiency and the residual consumption of the charger were slightly higher than average. Higher-than-average discharge currents especially during idle phases and when streaming music affected the efficiency results. However, the discharge currents when gaming or when on the go were decent. The varying results in discharge currents indicate that the device could be further optimized to improve its autonomy.
When comparing the OnePlus 11 with other devices from the Premium segment ($600-$799), it still ranked in the upper part of the database. The autonomy and charging experience were among the best for this segment, but the efficiency score was below the average.

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.

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.
