Battery specs 3250mAh but in reality 3100mAh

[LeKeiser]

Hello all,

The specs of the battery of the Axon 7 is supposed to be 3250mAh. It seems quite a few phones have a 3100mAh. That's not a big difference, but still, it's not what it's suppposed to be.
Now, do you think it's something to be pissed off, or...
False advertising?

What are your thoughts on that matter?

What are you using to determine the battery capacity?

If you watch the tear down video (and there is another one with just pictures) you will see stamped right on the battery itself that it is 3140, not 3250.

I guess my specific question would be how would I know what the capacity of the battery in MY phone is?

Do a tear down video?

Shucks, I wanted excitement... In that case the app battery doctor probably shows it, or there are adb commands that will pull the battery stats out of the rom that you can google up.

Hello,
I use Aida64 and it says my battery is a 3100mAh. Lots of users have the same data.
But there is a possibility this is a mistake, the post of celoxocis right here:
ZTE Axon 7 3140 mAh battery not 3250 mAh as … - Pg. 2 | ZTE Axon 7

So I'm still waiting to see what's a fact and what's not...

From the reviews of the AIDA64 app, there are a few that report their capacity reported incorrectly. That could be a bug in their software or in the way Android reports it.

very true, that's why I'm still investigating. The user says Aida64 could just read an XML file with the wrong battery info.
