The Xiaomi Mi Max made its official debut just three days ago poco time we have already had the opportunity to see it in some hands-on and in a first unboxing. However, in both situations mentioned, it was possible to admire in all its "greatness" only the Xiaomi phablet, while the same cannot be said for the new MIUI 8 which until now cannot be seen in its entirety. In case you missed the two articles just mentioned, I report them below:

Today we are going to examine a very interesting aspect of the Xiaomi Mi Max and, in more detail, we are talking about its battery (as well as its relative autonomy) which, as you well know, has a capacity of well 4850 mAh. The company's choice to implement a battery of this size was more than relevant, as we are dealing not so much with a large device, but with a device designed for entertainment (such as playing games or watching videos) and consequently it was necessary to opt for a battery with such a large capacity.
From the website of a Chinese media, it was possible to extrapolate the following graphs which respectively show a battery life test under stress and a complete charging cycle.
The first graph was obtained in a situation of use (stress) of the device and more specifically it was carried out:
- one hour of video playback;
- half an hour of play;
- half an hour of web browsing and use of various social networks.
During these activities, there was a decrease in energy respectively of 3% for video playback and 4% for each of the remaining activities, so overall there was a consumption equal to 10% of charge in two hours of stressful use!
In the second graph, however, it was calculated how long it takes to make a complete recharge of this huge battery. From what can be seen, the smartphone took over 3 hours to complete a full charge cycle (from 0 to 100%). However, this value is clearly unacceptable, especially considering that the Xiaomi Mi Max has fast charging Quick Charge 3.0 by Qualcomm and since in this test the charger included in the sales package was used (with output of 5V and 2A) which does not support this feature, consequently the test is not relevant and therefore it should be repeated using a suitable battery charger would recharge the Xiaomi Mi Max battery in much less time (an hour or poco more).
If we exclude the above, as we should repeat the charging test and really see how long it takes the battery to fully recharge, the battery of this Xiaomi Mi Max is definitely promoted!
