Pros

  • Excellent indoor autonomy
  • High gain in autonomy from 5-minute boost charging
  • Fast charging time to full capacity
  • Great autonomy when watching videos, indoor calling, and playing video games

Cons

  • Below average autonomy showing when outdoor calling, taking photos and browsing social apps outdoors
  • Very high residual power drain from the wireless stand
  • Below-average charge-related efficiency

The Oppo Find X7 Ultra delivered an outstanding overall battery experience, with an impressively well-balanced performance in all subscores — autonomy, charging, and efficiency. The 8-point improvement over its predecessor, the Oppo Find X6 Pro, pushed the latest flagship to the top spot in the battery ranking, a rare achievement for an ultra-premium smartphone.

Featuring a robust 5000 mAh battery, the Oppo Find X7 Ultra achieved 67 hours and 12 minutes of autonomy under moderate use. The device also excelled in various test scenarios, including idle screen-on, video streaming, gaming, and calling.  Even though music streaming was not as impressive as the other individual use cases, the autonomy was still above average.

The Oppo Find X7 Ultra reached a full charge in under 50 minutes thanks to its peak wired charging power of 100W, the same as its predecessor. However, its wireless charging, which was at a maximum power of 50W, took over 2 hours and 20 minutes to reach a full charge. Nevertheless, the device was able to regain more than 10 hours of autonomy from a quick 5-minute charging boost, placing it in the top half of our database.

The Oppo Find X7 Ultra’s charging efficiency was 78.2%, which is notably high given the 100W charger, as high-power chargers typically have lower efficiency due to higher energy consumption during charging. The device exhibited significant residual power drain in both wired and wireless modes, whether plugged in or not. This was particularly notable with wireless charging, where the  residual power drain reached nearly 6W while on the stand. Nonetheless, the device’s discharging currents were consistently low, indicating good overall optimization.

Balancing new power-demanding features while providing a satisfying user experience is often a challenge for ultra-premium smartphones. The Oppo Find X7 Ultra stands out in this segment, offering exceptional battery life and meticulous fine-tuning, making it the best in its class.

How Autonomy score is composed

Autonomy score is composed of three performance sub-scores: Home / Office, On the go, and Calibrated use cases. Each sub-score comprises the results of a comprehensive range of tests for measuring autonomy in all kinds of real-life scenarios.

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.

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 %.

Discharge

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.
