4 inch smartphones with good battery. Review of current smartphones with powerful batteries

In this article we will look at budget smartphones with powerful battery. Let's set the bar at 8 thousand rubles - given the growth of the dollar, this is quite an adequate limit. We are especially talking about choosing a smartphone with a powerful battery. After all, such devices are always somewhat more expensive than models with conventional batteries.

DEXP Ixion X 4''

Most affordable smartphone with the most powerful battery on the market is the DEXP Ixion X 4.” With a diagonal of 4 inches, this smartphone has a powerful 3,000 mAh battery. Analogs with the same screens usually have 1500-1700. So DEXP Ixion X 4" works approximately twice as long: 4-5 days instead of 2-2.5.

The remaining characteristics are IPS display(usually such ultra-budget devices have less bright TFT screens TN), 1 GB random access memory, 4 GB of internal memory, cameras with a resolution of 5 and 0.3 megapixels. Often, smartphones costing up to 6 thousand rubles have only 512 MB of RAM. DEXP Ixion X 4 is based on 4 nuclear processor MediaTek MT6582 with a frequency of 1300 MHz. The device costs 4490 rubles.

Fly IQ4502 Era Energy 1 Quad is a budget smartphone with a powerful battery from Fly, released in 2015. The battery capacity in this model is 4000 mAh. Processor – 4-core MediaTek MT6582M.

Rest specifications quite modest for such a price (although it is noticeably lower than 8 thousand rubles). The following components are installed here: 4 GB of internal memory, a total of 512 MB of RAM, a 5-inch screen with a resolution of 480 by 854 pixels, a rear camera with a resolution of 5 megapixels. You can buy the device for 6,690 rubles.

5 inch smartphone with . The hardware is quite typical: a 4-core processor and 1 GB of RAM. Built-in 4 GB, rear camera with 8 megapixel resolution.

The device is quite boring. There are no bright “highlights” in it, an ordinary workhorse. You can buy a smartphone for 6,890 rubles.

A very interesting smartphone with powerful batteries. Again from DEXP, and this is not surprising, because DEXP has a line of . Not 1-2 devices, like everyone else, but a whole line, which includes 11 models.


DEXP Ixion XL240 Triforce is the first and only 4-inch smartphone with an 8-core processor (MediaTek MT6592M, 1400 MHz). Usually such small smartphones don’t have such powerful hardware, but the DEXP did. And they equipped it with a powerful 3000 mAh battery. As well as 1 GB of RAM and 8 GB of internal memory, cameras with a resolution of 2 and 8 megapixels. The screen is made according to IPS technology. You can buy it for 6990 rubles. This is not much more expensive than typical 4-inch smartphones for undemanding buyers. Such smartphones usually have low-quality TN screens, 2-core processors, 512 MB of RAM, 4 GB of internal memory and cameras with a resolution of 5 and 0.3 megapixels.

A smartphone with a powerful battery (4000 mAh) and a borrowed concept. That's right - hence the word Snatch in the name, this is a reference to Guy Ritchie's film Snatch.


DEXP simply took a smartphone with a powerful Highscreen Zera S Power battery and slightly rethought it. They installed an 8-core processor (MediaTek MT6592, 1700 MHz) instead of a 4-core one, a camera with a resolution of 8 megapixels versus 5, made the body somewhat more convenient, and taught the front camera with a resolution of 2 megapixels to take pictures normally in the dark. The device has 1 GB of RAM and 8 GB of internal memory, as well as a 4.5-inch IPS screen with a resolution of 540 x 960 pixels. The model costs 7,490 rubles.

The above says almost everything about this smartphone with a capacious battery. In small things (although the same processor is not a small thing) it will be worse than the DEXP Ixion XL145 Snatch, and it costs even 500 rubles more.


So the model can only be recommended to fans of the Highscreen brand, if there are any in nature. The Highscreen Zera S Power uses a 4-core MediaTek MT6582 processor with a frequency of 1300 MHz, 1 GB of RAM, 8 GB of internal memory, a rear camera with a resolution of 5 megapixels and a front camera with a resolution of 2 megapixels. Highscreen Zera S Power is more expensive than DEXP Ixion XL145 Snatch - 7990 rubles instead of 7490 rubles.

A modern smartphone is no longer “just a call and send an SMS.” A person is used to having music, videos and films, photographs, games and other Internet resources always at hand, always in his pocket. Or in your hand. Or even... Or even they are on a wire, since the source of all this entertainment with each new generation of smartphones is increasingly chained to the socket by a cord. The whole point is that functionality " smart phones» is constantly growing, but energy consumption is also growing - alas! But there are no breakthroughs in “battery” technologies. In general, the picture is depressing, but there are ways out of the situation with the short battery life of smartphones (on average, about 1 day of intensive use). On the market today mobile devices There are already several devices with really powerful batteries and more than decent battery life. Below are the ten most interesting options for long-lived smartphones, sorted from cheap to expensive.


1. DEXP Ixion X 4’’ (4490 rubles, 3000 mAh, up to 4-5 days without recharging)
Device on Yandex.Market.
.

This is a smartphone model with a powerful battery entry level and with the lowest price on the market. There are simply no cheaper devices with large batteries (from 3000 mAh). The DEXP Ixion X 4’’ has a 3000 mAh battery, a fast 4-core processor, and a compact 4-inch screen. About 4-5 days of operation on a single charge with moderate-active use are guaranteed. To understand the charm of this “baby” (4 inches today is not enough), let’s say that its analogues in form factor usually have 1600-1700 mAh batteries. And some cheapskate developers even put it at 1500-1600. Just to save money!

2. DEXP Ixion ML 4.5’’ (4990 rubles, 4000 mAh, up to 6-7 days without recharging)
Device on Yandex.Market.
The device is on the manufacturer's website.

A small smartphone with a powerful battery from the same DEXP. Moreover, the Ixion ML 4.5’’ model is also the most budget-friendly of its kind – but already among devices with 4000 mAh batteries. Analogs are at least 1000-1500 rubles more expensive. The technical characteristics of the DEXP Ixion ML 4.5'' are also at the basic level: processor with 2 cores, 4.5-inch screen. Yes, 2 cores are already bad manners today, but because of such a number of them, the processor turned out to be mega economical. Therefore, a 4000 mAh battery guarantees up to 6-7 days of operation without recharging. Price – 4990 rubles.

3. Fly IQ4504 Energy 5 (6490 rubles, 4000 mAh, up to 4 days without recharging)
Device on Yandex.Market.
The device is on the manufacturer's website.

This medium-format (5-inch) smartphone with a powerful battery has a really excellent battery - 4000 mAh. Processor with 4 cores – as expected. It seems to be good for everyone, but unfortunately it is not without its shortcomings. The device has only 512 MB of RAM, so videos and games are frankly slow on it. But if you are not a fan of mobile toys, don’t open web pages in batches and are willing to pay 6.5 thousand rubles for a smartphone that is not the most technically advanced, then this device with a powerful battery may well be suitable for you.

4. DEXP Ixion EL150 Charger (6990 rubles, 4500 mAh, up to 5 days without recharging)
Device on Yandex.Market.
The device is on the manufacturer's website.

DEXP Ixion EL150 Charger is generally the most cheap smartphone with a powerful battery capacity of over 4000 mAh (in in this case 4500 mAh). A good 5-inch IPS screen, a 4-core processor - in a word, characteristics corresponding to the price tag of the model. One of the special features is that this device can be used as a portable charger for other gadgets. That is, it can act as a Power Bank, charging other devices. The same iPhone 6 can be fully charged and there will still be charge left for a couple of days of DEXP operation. How many smartphones with powerful batteries are capable of this? Almost none.

5. DEXP Ixion XL145 Snatch (7490 rubles, 4000 mAh, up to 4 days without recharging)
Device on Yandex.Market.
The device is on the manufacturer's website.

Actually, here it is, a smartphone with a powerful mid-range battery from DEXP. The title is borrowed from the Guy Ritchie film, which in our country was delicately translated as “Snatch.” This smartphone with a powerful battery is based on the Highscreen Zera S Power, which occupies the next position in our review. But DEXP engineers significantly modified and improved last year’s Highscreen device. So, the DEXP smartphone has a processor with 8 cores instead of the 4-core one in Highscreen, an 8 MP camera versus 5, in addition, the software for the front camera has been improved. So that she can take pictures normally in the twilight. The design has also been improved: the DEXP model does not have sharp corners, like the prototype - Highscreen Zera S Power, and the rear panel pleases with a “leather” finish. In addition, with more advanced characteristics, the price of the device from DEXP is 500 rubles lower than the original. The powerful battery remains unchanged - 4000 mAh, which gives about 4 days without recharging.
By the way, about prices. The question arises: why is the DEXP model better than the Highscreen device, but at the same time cheaper? Apparently the fact is that the DEXP brand is part of the DNS holding, which owns a retail chain of the same name selling portable electronics - 1,200 stores throughout the country. And DEXP smartphones are sold mainly on the DNS network, which sells them without the typical mark-ups for regular retail - its own brand, after all! As a result, it turns out that DEXP devices are cheaper than their analogues, the difference can reach that same 15-20%.

6. Highscreen Zera S Power (7990 rubles, 4000 mAh, up to 4 days without recharging)
Device on Yandex.Market.
The device is on the manufacturer's website.


And here, in fact, is Highscreen Zera S Power in person. This smartphone with a powerful 4000 mAh battery is equipped with a 4-core processor, a 5 MP camera and a small 4.5-inch screen. Quite average characteristics at a price of almost 8 thousand rubles. Is it possible better and cheaper? It is possible, which is what DEXP did, copying and improving this device - see above.

7. DEXP Ixion ML2 5’’ (8990 rubles, 5200 mAh, up to 7 days without recharging)
Device on Yandex.Market.
The device is on the manufacturer's website.

Another smartphone with a powerful battery in the DEXP line. In general, DEXP Ixion ML2 5"" is perhaps the model with the largest battery on the market: 5200 mAh. Upon closer examination, you can find other advantages that distinguish this model from its competitors. For example, a 13-megapixel camera. And with a remote shooting button. This (shooting button) can now only be found in Sony models priced at 20 thousand rubles. And the DEXP Ixion ML2 5"" has a metal frame around the perimeter of the case - also a serious plus.

8. Philips Xenium V387 (10990 rubles, 4400 mAh, up to 4 days without recharging)
Device on Yandex.Market.
The device is on the manufacturer's website.

Philips at one time almost revolutionized the market mobile phones. Back in the early 2000s, only this company offered phones with a powerful battery that did not require recharging for up to 10 days. But today there are only two or three devices compared to a dozen smartphones from the same DEXP. Philips Xenium V387 is equipped with a 4-core processor, a 5-inch HD screen, and an 8-megapixel camera. The device was developed and manufactured in China, and at the same time the price tag for it is almost 11 thousand rubles. However, the smartphone has a really powerful battery – 4400 mAh, which lasts about 3-4 days without recharging. The second plus is 2 GB of RAM versus 1 for all the models listed above. True, it’s not entirely clear why a smartphone with an average performance MediaTek MT6582 chipset needs so much RAM...

9.Highscreen Power Five(14990 rubles, 5000 mAh, up to 5 days without recharging)
Device on Yandex.Market.
The device is on the manufacturer's website.

The word Five in the name of this model means a 5000 mAh battery. Well, the operating time of this device is the same - it will last about five days. Among the pleasant things, it is worth noting support for LTE and an AMOLED screen. True, the last one is questionable: best displays This type is only used in Samsung smartphones, but all other manufacturers get screens from previous generations. The ones that have an acidic color rendering that is not very pleasing to the eye and a white color that looks more like yellow. However, ok, Highscreen turned out to be an interesting device, especially if you remember the MediaTek processor latest generation and fresh Android version– 5.0. It would be a Power Five hit if it cost 11-12 thousand. But it costs as much as 15 thousand, and for this or a little more money there are much more interesting options... For example, the following device.

10. Lenovo P70 (19,990 rubles, 4000 mAh, up to 4 days without recharging)
Device on Yandex.Market.
The device is on the manufacturer's website.

And this is almost a flagship smartphone with a powerful battery and a price of about 20 thousand rubles. However, this Lenovo has somehow become empty, plasticized... The previous model, Lenovo P780 with a metal body, was wow. But alas, it has been out of production for a year now. However, if you do not take into account the design and materials of the case, the technical characteristics of the Lenovo P70 are still impressive: an 8-core processor, a very high-quality 13-megapixel camera, a 5-inch screen (though HD, although for that kind of money they could and Full HD), 4G/LTE support. But for this pleasure you will have to pay a lot of money - about 20 thousand rubles. Well, or shamelessly give them away for a smartphone of more famous brands - Sony, Samsung or LG. True, these companies do not spoil us with models with powerful batteries...

11. iPhone 6 Plus (48,590 rubles, 3000 mAh, up to 2 days without recharging)
Device on Yandex.Market.
The device is on the manufacturer's website.

Closes our smartphone marathon with powerful iPhone battery 6 Plus. Among all Apple devices, this is the first with a truly capacious battery - slightly less than 3000 mAh. The charge lasts for almost 2 full days, but provided that you do not actively use games or watch videos. Whether this is enough for you, decide for yourself, but for devices with a 5.5-inch screen today this is considered good result. Everyone is aware of the price level for the iPhone - about 50,000 rubles. How much is the salary of the average citizen?

As you can see, despite the fact that smartphones with powerful batteries occupy no more than 5-7% of all those on the market, there is plenty to choose from. Moreover, as you have probably already noticed, the DEXP brand stands apart. This is all because this brand does not have 1-2 models of long-lasting smartphones, like everyone else, but a whole line of as many as 10 models. The DEXP line is the only one of its kind in Russia. There are a lot of different-sized devices to choose from, priced from 4,490 to 14,990 rubles and with batteries from 3,000 to 5,200 mAh. We have listed in this review only 5 models – the most interesting in their price segments.
Actually, since DEXP has more devices with powerful batteries than its competitors, more attention is paid to the devices of this brand in the review.
