Having a large battery doesn’t necessarily suffice for a good battery life but it ensures that you don’t run out of charge anytime before the end of the day. If that’s the biggest factor for you when considering buying a smartphone, then this is the list of smartphones that you might want to look at.
More often than not, a smartphone battery is the foundation of choice when it comes to getting a handheld device for yourself. Not only would you get your smartphone to last you the whole day, but you might want it to disappoint you when listening to your favourite tunes on your way back home. While manufacturers try loading up a device with a ton of ‘smart’ features, the one thing they often miss out on is adding a sufficiently sized battery.

It’s safe to be noted that having a large battery doesn’t necessarily suffice for good battery life since it also depends on the phone’s chipset, software optimisations and user patterns. But a larger battery at least ensures that you don’t run out of charge anytime before the end of the day and if that’s the biggest factor for you when considering buying a smartphone, then this is the list for you. We’ve sorted out the best of smartphones that are affordable as well as efficient enough to last you for over a day and here they are.
Infinix Hot 6 Pro | 4,000mAh | Rs 7,999
China-based smartphone brand Infinix announced the Hot 6 Pro in India earlier this month, powered by a Qualcomm Snapdragon 425 quad-core 1.4GHz processor along with 3GB of RAM and 32GB of onboard storage. The Hot 6 Pro sports a 5.99-inch HD+ Full View display with a screen resolution of 720 x 1440 pixels with face unlock technology which can unlock in 0.3 secs.
The cheapest smartphone in the lineup doesn't compromise in power as it comes with a massive 4000mAh battery which the company claims will last 12/37 hours on video/audio playback and 30 hours when on 4G. From our point of view, this looks possible due to the display which doesn’t output too many pixels and thus doesn't consume battery.
There’s a dual rear camera setup of 13MP+2MP sensors with dual LED flash, aperture f/2.0 and PDAF, which offer portrait, professional, time lapse, night mode, panorama, and HDR. For the front, it offers 5-megapixel selfie camera with Softlight Flash for selfies and video calling.
