This could influence your decision on which phone to buy…

In a time where batteries on phones rarely last the full day when in constant use, it’s always good to have a charger lying about to give your phone an extra bit of juice.

But when you’re charging your phone, you want it to be fully charged as quickly as possible so you’re not chained to the plug in the wall.

It seems that the iPhone isn’t the way to go if you want a snappy boost in your battery taking the second longest of the phones surveyed to reach 80 per cent charge.
