Since the end of 2024, an unprecedented round of mobile phone battery arms race has been launched in the Chinese mobile phone market. Major mobile phone manufacturers have launched new phones with amazing battery capacity to meet consumers’ urgent demand for long battery life.

At present, the battery capacity of the annual flagship models of many manufacturers on the market has generally climbed to more than 5500mAh, and models such as REDMI K80 series and vivo S19 series have exceeded the 6500mAh mark, while the Red Magic 10 Pro and realme Neo 7 have an amazing configuration of built-in 7000mAh batteries.

It is understood that manufacturers such as Xiaomi, Honor, and vivo are also busy preparing their own new phones with 7000mAh batteries, and the competition over battery capacity is intensifying.

REDMI Turbo 4 Pro

On January 2, 2025, REDMI released REDMI Turbo 4, which is the first new phone in 2025 and also the model with the largest battery capacity under the REDMI brand.

However, REDMI did not stop there. According to multiple sources, REDMI’s upcoming Turbo 4 Pro will refresh the battery capacity record of the REDMI brand.

According to multiple sources, REDMI Turbo 4 Pro is suspected to have a built-in 7000mAh super-large battery, which is also Xiaomi’s first 7000mAh battery model.

In terms of performance, REDMI Turbo 4 Pro will be equipped with SM8735, which is Qualcomm Snapdragon 8s Elite mobile platform. It is expected to provide up to 16GB of running memory, equipped with a 1.5K OLED pure vertical screen, support 100W wired charging, and is not expected to support wireless charging.

The AnTuTu score of REDMI Turbo 4 Pro will exceed 2 million, and its performance ranks in the first tier of Android phones.

In terms of price, the starting price of REDMI Turbo 4 is 1,999 yuan, and the starting price of REDMI Turbo 4 Pro may be around 2,500 yuan.

Honor 400

In the past two years, Honor has been a manufacturer in the mobile phone industry that is relatively keen on large batteries. The Honor X50 series released in 2023 has achieved great success in the 1,000 yuan price segment with a 5800mAh battery, with sales exceeding 10 million units, becoming one of the most successful 1,000 yuan phones in recent years.

On this basis, the Honor 400 series is revealed to be equipped with a 7000mAh super-large battery, further consolidating its leading position in the long-life battery market.

Although most mobile phone manufacturers update their digital series flagships once a year, such as Xiaomi and OnePlus, this is not the case with Honor. For example, the Honor 200 series was released on May 27, 2024, and the Honor 300 series was released on December 2, 2024, with only about half a year between the two. Based on this rhythm, the industry generally predicts that the Honor 400 series is expected to be released in the first half of 2025, and the series lineup may include Honor 400, Honor 400 Pro and the flagship Honor 400 Ultra.

It is speculated that the model with a built-in 7000mAh battery is most likely the Honor 400 standard version, while the Honor 400 Pro and Honor 400 Ultra may be better in performance, imaging, etc., and the battery capacity may be reduced to balance the overall performance and battery life.

iQOO Neo 11

As an old rival of REDMI and Realme, iQOO is naturally not far behind. From the end of 2024 to the beginning of 2025, iQOO has successively released a number of models including iQOO 13, iQOO Neo 10, iQOO Neo 10 Pro and iQOO Z9 Tubro long-lasting version, but the maximum battery capacity is still only 6400mAh. In order to further cater to market demand, iQOO Neo 11 is reported to have a built-in 7000mAh battery, becoming another long-lasting masterpiece of iQOO.

The update time of the iQOO Neo series is not fixed, but it is roughly between half a year and a year. For example, the iQOO Neo 8 series was released in May 2023, and the iQOO Neo 9 series was released in December of the same year. Although the iQOO Neo 10 series was released in December 2024, with a long interval, based on the revelations from other channels, the possibility of iQOO Neo 11 being updated in about half a year is still not low.

In terms of performance, it is expected that the iQOO Neo 11 will be equipped with Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 series flagship mobile platform, provide up to 16GB of RAM, be equipped with a 1.5K resolution OLED screen, and have a built-in 7000mAh battery. In terms of price, referring to the iQOO Neo 10, the starting price of the iQOO Neo 11 may be less than 2,500 yuan.

Realme Neo 7 SE

In December 2024, the realme Neo 7 was released, equipped with MediaTek’s previous generation flagship chip Dimensity 9300+, and built-in 7000mAh Titan battery jointly developed with CATL. The starting price was only 2099 yuan, which won a warm response from the market. In order to further expand its advantage in the large battery market, the realme Neo 7 SE came into being and is scheduled to be released in February 2025.

The realme Neo 7 SE will be equipped with MediaTek’s Dimensity 8400 processor. This chip adopts a full-core CPU design, including 8 Arm Cortex-A725 large cores with a main frequency of up to 3.25GHz. The CPU multi-core performance is 41% higher than the previous generation chip. At the same time, with the help of precise energy efficiency control technology, the multi-core power consumption of the Dimensity 8400 CPU is reduced by 44% compared with the previous generation. In addition, the Dimensity 8400 is also equipped with an Arm Mali-G720 GPU, with a peak performance improvement of 24% and a power consumption reduction of 42% compared with the previous generation chip. This configuration will enable the realme Neo 7 SE to reach the leading level of mid-range models in terms of performance.

In addition to the powerful processor performance, the realme Neo 7 SE will also be equipped with a 1.5K straight screen and a plastic middle frame. In terms of battery life, the new phone is also equipped with a 7000mAh large battery and supports 80W fast charging, meeting consumers’ dual needs for long battery life and fast charging. In terms of imaging, the realme Neo 7 SE is equipped with a 50-megapixel IMX882 dual camera.

Last words

As mobile phone manufacturers continue to increase battery capacity, it is foreseeable that mobile phones with 7000mAh batteries will no longer be rare in the market in 2025. There is even the possibility of models with 8000mAh and above. This trend will promote continuous progress and innovation in the mobile phone industry in terms of battery technology, charging efficiency and overall performance.
