Pros
- Excellent efficiency during a wireless charge
- Good autonomy in gaming
- Excellent wired and wireless charging speeds to reach 80% of a full charge
Cons
- Rather high discharge currents, especially in the Home/Office use cases
- Poor autonomy when streaming music on a cellular connection
The Xiaomi 14T Pro’s solid battery performance is mainly thanks to its excellent charging experience, which is both fast and efficient.
A single charge gave the device enough power to operate for more than two days when used moderately, which was below average when compared with the other phones in our global database, but slightly above average when compared with devices in the premium segment. The Xiaomi 14T Pro’s autonomy was stronger than other phones in its segment when gaming and watching videos, but it was barely average in other usages.
The Xiaomi 14T Pro’s charging experience was outstanding, taking 21 minutes to reach 80% of a full charge using the 120W wired charger, and 35 minutes with the 50W wireless charger. A quick 5-minute battery charge recovered 9 hours of autonomy on average, which puts the Xiaomi 14T Pro among the best performers.
Although the device’s wired and wireless charging efficiencies were good, the overall efficiency score was impacted by rather high discharge currents in most use cases except gaming and video streaming.

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.
166
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.
Average discharge current
