The best smartphones with a powerful battery in 2023
Editor’s Choice
realme 8
This smartphone can last as long as six days, provided that it is used only as a phone and not for games, Internet and video. If we talk about the usual scenario, when you played a little, took some photos, watched a video, surfed the Internet, then it will definitely be enough for two days. Included is a charger that produces 30 watts. This is enough to charge a powerful battery from 0 to 60% in less than half an hour. And it takes another 40 minutes to get the battery to 100%.
The G95 processor is not the crown of progress, but it allows you to play not the heaviest toys. And instant messengers, YouTube and other everyday software are a breeze. You can also praise it for its powerful camera unit. But like most budget Androids, indoor photos and contrast-detailed scenes look rather bad here. For example, if you shot an autumn forest: the sky is blue, the trees are a riot of colors – then you will notice that the picture is flat, and the boundaries of objects have black outlines. The design of the model is quite modern. If you take the version in a silver case, then note that on the lid there will be an iridescent inscription Dare to leap, which can be translated as “Changing standards.” There are two more black shades of the case without any inscriptions.

Top 15 best smartphones with a powerful battery in 2023 according to KP
Xiaomi Poco M3
A phone with high-performance hardware that offers long battery life. Not only does the power source have greater capacity than most smartphones sold today, but the battery life expectancy is superior to most modern portable batteries. The most important part of the smartphone is the screen, which can display images with a high level of detail corresponding to the FHD+ standard. Not every smartphone in this price category is equipped with a display that supports this image standard. The plastic casing on the back panel imitates the texture of leather, which provides a more comfortable grip on the phone.

TECNO Pova 2
For 2023, this is a mass smartphone with the largest battery capacity. 7000 milliamps/hour is an outstanding figure. But the owner must “pay” for it with the dimensions of the gadget. We warn you, you should not buy it without first holding it in your hand – especially for ladies.
This battery reserve is enough for continuous operation of the display for one and a half days – in the so-called reading mode. That is, under normal usage scenarios, the average modern user will more than have enough charge for two days, and not for a demanding user for three to five days. It’s a pity that the phone doesn’t support fast charging. It takes about three hours to wait for the battery to fill from 0 to 100%.
ASUS ROG Phone 5s
This line of smartphones is for gamers. And a powerful battery for such a device is a must-have attribute in 2023. The battery charging algorithm is not the same as many other models: the smartphone itself calculates the optimal time and current for charging, depending on the situation. For example, when you charge a gadget overnight, it will take longer to charge, since there is nowhere to rush, and keeping the battery under voltage for a long time is harmful. During the day, on the contrary, it will be fully charged in less than an hour.
We won’t talk much about the filling – the person who buys such a device in most cases already knows all its nuances. Let’s summarize: everything inside is top-notch. Of course, there are more powerful models on the market. But to play modern shooting games and racing games with the best graphics settings, that’s enough.
It will also appeal to those who like to edit videos and process photos. The phone also has a version without the S prefix – it came out about a year earlier, is externally identical, but the processor is slightly weaker.

Ulefone Power Armor 13
The brand produces “armored” smartphones. Of course, they won’t stop a bullet. But it’s easy to survive falling on asphalt, diving into sand and under water! The brand is valued among extreme sports enthusiasts, hunters, and fishermen. It is jokingly called the “doomsday smartphone.” The battery here is the most powerful – 13,200 milliamps/hour. This is enough to surf the Internet for 40 hours non-stop. Or about a week of normal use.
There is fast charging, but with such a large battery it is not enough. Judge for yourself: in half an hour, about a quarter of the capacity is charged, but for maximum 100% you need another 2.5 hours. And if you charge with a non-original wire, then the full cycle takes about five hours.
The smartphone has a decent processor, a lot of RAM and built-in memory. This is top in its class. However, the tube weighs almost half a kilo and will not fit into every pocket. The manufacturer even suggests attaching it to a carabiner for unloading or a belt.

Oukitel K15 Pro
Another “armored car” in our ranking of the best. However, the manufacturer is trying to bring its appearance closer to a classic smartphone. The battery here has a capacity of ten thousand Machs. Please note that there are two versions on sale: Pro and Plus – the second is cheaper and has worse characteristics, but the appearance and battery capacity are identical. Charging the battery to 100% takes about three hours. In standby mode, it can hold a charge for about 30 days.
The Mediatek Helio P60 processor in the K15 Pro is considered obsolete in 2023. Modern games run poorly, and it takes time to launch the camera and demanding applications. Inside the smartphone there is a set of utilities typical for such mobile phones: a magnetic compass, orientation, proximity, light and gravity sensors.

Xiaomi Redmi 9T
The Redmi line is the maximum balance of price and quality. It began with the brand making a minimal markup on the cost of parts. This is how gadgets gained their popularity. The ninth Redmik has many variations with different postfixes C, A or no letter at all next to the model number. The T version has a powerful battery. The original charger fills 100% of the battery in two and a half hours.
The Snapdragon 662 processor is mid-range. It is still relevant in 2023, but users have reported a number of performance issues when processing large amounts of data. For example, a heavy website loads with noticeable lags. 3D games run at low quality settings. An advanced user and technology fan will notice the nuances and will be dissatisfied.
But if you need a phone to make calls and communicate via instant messengers, then no problem. The rear camera is acceptable, the photos are slightly blurry. You shouldn’t expect stunning selfies from the front camera.

Infinix Hot 11 Play
This manufacturer is just entering the Russian market and has not yet gained much fame. But the brand has already earned respect from technology fans who want to save money. A capacious battery, combined with a well-optimized shell and a not-so-fast processor, have a positive effect on operating time. Two to three days under normal usage scenarios is a pretty good indicator. It’s a pity that the included charger only provides 10 W, which is why it takes almost five hours to fully charge.
The phone has a proprietary Power Marathon function. When there is very little charge left, increased energy saving is activated so that resources remain, for example, making a call or sending a message. The technical hardware copes well with everyday use cases and handles simple games. The camera is soapy and not very sharp – a common solution for a budget model. During the day the photo quality is acceptable.

OUKITEL WP5 Pro
The smartphone case is designed to meet the most stringent international standards for protecting technical devices from dust and moisture. Also, when developing the physical shell of the phone, the manufacturer was guided by a number of tests that military equipment undergoes before being adopted into service in the United States. Therefore, most random everyday troubles associated with excessive mechanical impact are not a problem for this phone.

Lenovo Legion Pro
A gadget with a daring youth design. The mobile phone has two Type-C ports, which are used for charging or connecting joysticks and other gaming devices. The first is traditionally from below, the second is from the side. Two ports are also needed so that the user can charge it and still hold it comfortably in his hand. And if you plug the charging cable into both sockets, charging will go twice as fast – in just half an hour the smartphone will be charged to maximum. Accordingly, charging through one cable takes about an hour.
Technical characteristics are excellent. In 2023, all games and applications will fly. The blissful picture is complemented by a juicy AMOLED screen with support for 120 and 144 Hz – with such a display, all animations look very smooth. The phone has powerful speakers. What’s unusual is the location of the camera. Block with lenses in the center of the body. This was done specifically so that the player – after all, it was made primarily for gamers – could comfortably hold the mobile phone horizontally. Photos come out very sharp. You can record videos in 4K resolution.

realme C15
When developing this phone, the manufacturer concentrated its efforts on implementing the idea of long battery life. A multi-core energy-efficient gaming processor, a display with HD+ support, which requires less energy compared to FHD, custom operating system shell settings with several modes for limiting charge consumption, a battery capacity with fast charging – everything is subject to the principle of minimal power consumption. Although the case is massive, and sometimes requires a second hand to operate, it is difficult to accidentally drop the phone. On the back cover there is embossing, multi-directional thin textured lines, thanks to which the phone holds more firmly in the hand.

BQ 6630L Magic L
In the line of the domestic brand for 2023, this is the phone with the most powerful battery. The company operates in the low price segment, so expecting miracles of performance, a sharp camera, and a large amount of RAM from it is reckless. At the same time, for its price it is a good device. Moreover, taking into account the battery capacity of 4920 mAh, it is enough for two days of moderately intensive use. But the budget played a cruel joke – it takes at least four hours to charge the gadget. Fast charging is not supported here.
Its performance is enough for simple games, instant messengers and the Internet. The screen is large, the gadget fits well in the hand and, despite the glossy body, does not slip. The sensor, in budget fashion, is placed on the back cover, rather than built into the screen or unlock button. However, some people find it more convenient. The model as a whole has good ergonomics. The camera is only suitable for pictures with good lighting.

Samsung Galaxy M52
There’s an interesting story behind this gadget. Its predecessor, number M51, had a battery of 7,000 Machs – the model is now out of production and a new one cannot be found on sale. The community of tech bloggers thought: since they set their sights on such a record capacity, they will continue to delight the audience. No such luck – you get 5000 mAh. Of course, this is a smartphone with a powerful battery, but after the last hit it is disappointing.
Nokia C30
A smartphone with the largest battery in the Finnish brand’s lineup. Fully charges in about three hours. And with normal use, the battery lasts for three days. In many ways, the secret to such performance is a weak processor. The model is called a “dialer”, hinting that except for communication and surfing the Internet, this gadget is difficult to use for other tasks – it simply won’t last.
But we get a price that is quite affordable for 2023. It also runs on pure Android. It is believed that this is an ideal solution for low-performance gadgets. Plus, no junk software on the internal memory upon purchase. There is a fingerprint sensor and face unlock. The quality of the cameras can be described with the phrase: “There is a camera and that’s okay.”

Samsung Galaxy M31
The screen brightness is enough for comfortable use outdoors in direct sunlight. The camera module is capable of fast and clear pictures with a high level of detail even in low light. The amount of RAM allows you to keep resource-intensive applications open in parallel without any loss in the usability of the phone; this speeds up the discharge process, but is compensated by the capacity of the batteries. The presence of NFC technology, a memory card slot, and a mini jack acoustic connector have turned this smartphone into a universal and useful assistant, with potential that will last for several more years.

How to choose a smartphone with a powerful battery
We recommend choosing a smartphone with a powerful battery based on the following criteria:
Battery
The battery determines how long the smartphone will work without recharging. A battery with a capacity of 5000 mAh or more can be called powerful. Smartphones with such a capacity can last from 3 to 5 days on a single charge with minimal use (rarely answering calls and SMS). The maximum nominal battery capacity of gadgets can currently exceed 10,000 mAh, but the actual operating time depends on the optimization of the software and hardware of the developers.
operating system
You can choose a smartphone with Android and iOS operating systems. There are also realme UI and MIUI shells based on Android.
Most smartphones in 2023 come with Android OS¹ . Among the advantages of this software are the availability of flexible interface settings, additional options for advanced users, as well as a significant number of free applications on Google Play.
The main advantage of iOS is that it is tailored strictly for Apple devices, which means that such a system is a priori stable. It is also necessary to note the reliability, high performance and well-established communication when working with the software. In addition, iOS has a high level of security, stable updates and a clear interface.
The realme UI and MIUI shells are based on Android. They have no significant differences from “pure” Android, but additional software has much wider functionality: individual customization of the desktop, a second space (two separate desktops) and Mi-Drop for fast file transfer (analogous to AirDrop from iOS).
Screen
Pay attention to the screen diagonal and its resolution. The higher these indicators, the more comfortable it is to watch movies and play games. But gadgets with large screens also have their drawbacks, the main one being their large size, which is why they may not fit in your pocket.
The optimal screen size for a modern smartphone starts from 6 inches and above. Resolution affects the clarity of the image. The most common: HD (720p), Full HD (1080p), Quad HD (1440p) and Ultra HD (2160p). Most often, users choose smartphones with Full HD² resolution .
In the case of Quad HD and Ultra HD, images are clear and realistic, but extra pixels consume more power, which affects the battery life of devices. In HD, the picture will be less clear in games and videos.
Matrix
The brightness and clarity of the image is affected by the type of matrix. It comes in the following types:
- IPS is bright and not very expensive to produce. This matrix has a large reserve of brightness and natural color reproduction, but due to the separate backlight layer in the design, the power consumption is quite high.
- OLED (modifications AMOLED, Super AMOLED, Dynamic AMOLED) is more expensive to produce, but conveys deep and rich color. At the same time, OLED has higher contrast, very low power consumption and small thickness, which allows you to make the device thinner.
In modern devices you can find AMOLED and Super AMOLED modifications. They have no differences in image forming technology, but there are differences in the way the touch matrix is attached: the touchscreen is integrated directly into the display, and is not superimposed on top, as in a regular AMOLED. Due to this, the air layer is removed, the amount of reflected external light is reduced, and the image becomes even brighter.
Cameras
The camera resolution of some flagships reaches 108 megapixels. And the main sensor comes to the aid of several additional sensors designed to improve the quality of pictures. For example, an ultra-wide-angle lens captures more space and is ideal for shooting landscapes, a portrait lens blurs the background, a telephoto lens is suitable for shooting distant objects, and a macro camera allows you to capture small objects at close range.
Also, one of the main characteristics affecting the quality of photo and video shooting is the matrix. The matrix size is calculated in fractions of an inch, and is indicated in the parameters as 1/x. The larger it is, the more light it captures. This means the higher quality and more detailed photos and videos are obtained. Another important criterion is optical stabilization (a system to counteract camera shake). The technology compensates for camera movement and prevents image blur.
But do not forget that a good camera combines powerful hardware and competent software, which are properly configured and work harmoniously with each other. This is why smartphones with the same camera characteristics can shoot completely differently.
RAM
RAM is responsible for the smooth operation of the system itself, as well as for the performance of applications open simultaneously. On average, about 1 GB is spent on the needs of the operating system when using 3-4 applications simultaneously. In the modern world, applications on a smartphone are becoming more resource-intensive, so for stable operation of a smartphone you need at least 4 GB of RAM. But in order to ensure that your smartphone works for a long time without freezing, it is better to choose gadgets with RAM of 8 GB or more.
Inner memory
You should always pay attention to the size of the built-in memory, since in addition to applications in the smartphone, the OS also takes up space, and during its operation it records its files. Choose models with at least 64 GB of memory. If there is still not enough space, you can install a memory card, but not all smartphones have a slot for it.
Additional functions
Many smartphones are equipped with additional functions:
- water protection
- NFC module (linking a bank card, paying for purchases in a store)
- fast charging
Also in modern smartphones you can often find a hybrid slot for SIM cards. That is, either two SIM cards are used at the same time, or one slot is for a SIM card, and the second is for MicroSD. But you will have to choose between an additional SIM card and a memory card. If you are used to using several cellular operators, and the amount of built-in memory on your phone is small, then making a choice will be especially difficult.
