HTC One Battery Test - Video Playback

Want to see how many hours of video playback the HTC One can do? Don't want to actually have to sit there and watch the entire test in real time? That's where my battery test comes in. In a fraction of the time you can see how long the HTC One can playback video without actually having to watch it all. For this test I used my HTC One S to record using Lapse It Pro. I took a picture every 5 seconds at a resolution of 1080p and then I merged those images together using PhotoLapse for Windows. The HTC One was in airplane mode and did not have a sim card in it (I need to communicate with the rest of the world).


The videos being player in order were as followed:
  • Big Buck Bunny
    .mkv - MPEG-4 Video (FMP4) - AC3 - 1920x1080 - 24 FPS - 885MB
  • Lucky Number Slevin
    .mkv - MPEG-4 Video (XVID) - AC3 - 688x288 - 25 FPS - 1:41:05 - 901MB
  • Perfume: The Story Of A Murderer
    .mkv - MPEG-4 AVC (AVC1) - MP4A - 1280x5544 - 23.98 FPS - 2:27:40 - 1.18GB
  • Rocket Science
    .mkv - MPEG-4 Video (DX50) - MPGA - 608x332 - 25 FPS - 1:37:11 - 696MB
  • Star Trek
    .mkv - MPEG-4 Video AVC (AVC1) - MP4A - 1920x800 - 23.98 FPS - 2:06:50 - 2.24GB
  • Thank You For Smoking
    .mkv - MPEG-4 Video (XVID) - AC3 - 640x368 - 25 FPS - 1:23:20 - 816MB
And this is the finished result with 5,468 pictures later.



As far as battery life goes for day to day usage, I've been quite pleased. I haven't had trouble getting through a work day with bluetooth on and paired to my Pebble smartwatch the entire time. Here's a battery life example from 4/20/2013.
