pcmark battery (higher is better)

PCMark’s battery test provides a good insight into smartphone battery performance under ideal conditions. At the beginning of the test, we made sure that the OnePlus 13 and Vivo X200 had 100 percent battery. We also maintained the same brightness and audio levels for fair competition. Please note that the PCMark app automatically stops the battery test as soon as the battery level drops to 20 percent.

The round ended with the OnePlus 13 lasting 7 hours and 44 minutes. The Vivo X200’s test, on the other hand, lasted for 13 hours and 52 minutes. Despite low scores on benchmarks, as we mentioned in its battery review, the OnePlus 13 performs really well in real-life use.

real world context: Both the OnePlus 13 and Vivo X200 offer reliable battery life in everyday use. While the PCMark battery test often gives reliable results, this seems to be one of those times when for some strange reason the phone drains faster than usual (in the case of the OnePlus 13).

winner: Vivo X200

final call

Based on our tests, it’s clear that the OnePlus 13 and Vivo X200 excel in various areas. While the OnePlus 13 offers better charging speeds, the X200 managed to last longer in PCMark battery testing scenarios. Since both handsets have lost similar battery percentages in other tests, you can expect them to offer similar battery life in real-world usage. Although both the phones also offer great charging speeds, if you want the edge, you can always go for the OnePlus 13. That being said, the X200 does come with and offers one of the best camera setups on any flagship smartphone in the market. Top notch hardware. The OnePlus 13, on the other hand, tries to offer a more polished approach. Ultimately, the choice depends on your preference in design and UI.
