OPPO announced a new technology that will first be seen in the OPPO Find X5 Pro. This new technology is called Battery Health Engine, and it's designed to increase the overall lifespan and health of your phone's battery. The BHE is a self-developed chip that is designed to work in combination with the new 150W SUPERVOOC flash charger.
So what does the BHE actually do? Traditional charging of your phone causes your battery to degrade over time. This results in shorter battery life as your usage continues. The goal of BHE is to slow that process down as much as possible. Using OPPO's self-developed BHE chip, the OPPO Find X5 Pro can maintain 80% of its original capacity after as many as 1,600 charge cycles. To put this into perspective, this is double the current industry norm.

The Technology Behind the Battery Health EngineThe BHE chip takes advantage of two specific technologies which include Smart Battery Health Algorithm and Battery Healing Technology. The combination of these features helps improve battery health, safety, and performance by optimizing the hardware and software.
Smart Battery Health Algorithm has the ability to track real-time electric potential across the negative electrodes within the battery. Using this information, it will dynamically adjust the charging currency within a reasonable range, resulting in the minimization of the occurrence of dead lithium. It can do this while maintaining the maximum charging current. This helps ensure a prolonged battery lifespan and faster-charging speeds.
Battery Healing Technology extends the battery life from the inner system of the battery. With the ability to improve the electrolyte formula, the electrodes are constantly being repaired while the battery goes through its normal charge and discharge cycles. This forms a more stable and durable solid electrolyte interface (SEI) that always stays in a perfect state in real-time. This ultimately causes a reduction of the wear and tear of the positive and negative electrodes of the battery. you'll end up with a healthier and
longer-lasting battery.
So are you looking forward to BHE in new phones? Would a longer battery life allow you to keep your device for longer?

When I first used the OPT, I noticed that it loses battery *in standby* pretty fast. Screen on time was good but just leaving it be would drain a lot of battery. I turned off LTE but also noticed that it often struggled with cell network quality (which usually makes a phone look for other stations etc. thus battery is used a lot).
However, today, after a couple of days of use and maybe 3, 4 recharge cycles, it seems a bit better. Is there a chance that this is an actual effect (it could be something very different). Do batteries also get better after some use or am I just biasing my highly non-scientific measurements here?

I've noticed this too. I think that this battery technology does improve its capacity after several charge/discharge cycles.
Correct but what about 100+ cycles... It start loosing its power.... What's the best way to keep a li-ion unit last longer? Any help or suggestions?

Good practice is not let battery overheat, like when you play and charge, also batteries don't like to be fully discharged try to keep at least 20% and start charging again

Short answer. No, worse.
It's been nearly 27 months of daily and intensive use of my oneplus one and I can't be happier, not even consider buying a new smartphone with the performance of this little one.
I was in fact considering buying a new battery, wasn't noticing any noticeable decrease in battery life but it might just be because of the slowness of the wearing and buying a new one will immediately result in much better results.
I found an app called accubattery that tests wear by measuring charging currents vs charge percentage over time and would love to see how is you battery performing, also wanted to know the results of a new battery if some of you have indeed swapped it already.
Here are some screenshots

Considering a new battery would perform about 97/98% (just guessing) that's about 5% wear every 8 months. Seems like a really slow pace if you ask me.
Would love if some of you guys test it for a couple of charges cycles and share your results vs age of your device.

You shouldn't trust these battery apps. Measure it that way - if the battery lasts long enough for you - you don't need to replace it. Otherwise get a replacement and hope that it's better than your current one.
Right now I get about 3.5-4 hours of SOT with Stylo King's profile and I charge it every night. Perhaps I'll replace the battery within a year but who knows - I might just get an external battery instead.

Sure enough, I'm still OK with the battery life. But it's interesting to know how fast batteries are wearing and how much improvement we get with a new one. This app measures how much capacity it can hold, battery life is a different story.
20% wear might not seem a lot but imagine you have an extra 20% each time your battery dies. Might consider a new one in the near future.
i am really interested to this topic too. for now, you can refer to the answer to this thread of mine.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-one/general/how-battery-1-2-years-t3414249
the biggest problem at the moment is that most of battery sold online as original are simply fake and works very bad, so finding a replacement it' s hard. Oneplus support asks for aroun 80€ to replace the battery
To power up, you consume Red Bull. But your phone just needs its adaptive fast charger. Rate this thread to express how quickly the Xiaomi Mi 10T Lite can charge. A higher rating indicates that it charges extremely fast.
Then, drop a comment if you have anything to add!
Hi guys,
I have to say that I am impressed with the charging abilities of this phone. I've done this test on stock rom and pixel experience and I got similar results, but with the phone being rooted I now have access to see more information. The app I used to monitor the charging was Franco Kernel Manager, one of the very few paid apps I recommend as it can show with accuracy both the current and the voltage. I started this test when the battery was 5% all the way up to 100%. I need to mention that I was interested in the true performance of the charger in a controlled environment and as we all know a high temperature of the battery throttles the charger. I noticed that at the highest speeds, anything over 35° will make it throttle so I used an ice pack for portable fridges to keep the temperature between 24° and 29°. I've heard some saying that this is no good for the phone but I've done this in the past 5 years hundreds of times on more than 10 different phones and I've never shorted one. Back to charging speeds, you will notice in the last screenshot that when temperature is good the turbocharge will last up to 70% when the wattage shows over 40w. I know that technically the brick is rated at 33w max, I'm wondering if it has the ability to draw more from the socket, put 33w in the battery and the rest will go towards the actual usage of the phone. Then the wattage will slowly drop up to 95% then dramatically drop up to 100%. This is because the voltage stayed consistently at 9v between 5 and 95% then dropped to 5v between 95 and 100%. Another mention is that I compared the readings of the Franco Kernel and Ampere and they were identical, the only reason I couldn't tell the Wattage with Ampere is because Ampere can't monitor the voltage so it made the app redundant. That's it, I hope you found this useful.

OPPO is improving their battery life and performance in a big way, with the Find X5 Pro. The SuperVOOC charging technology lets you charge your phone faster than ever, while maintaining a healthy battery. The large dual-cell 5,000mAh battery offers 2.5 additional hours of use, in comparison to the Find X3 Pro.
A new feature called Battery Health Engine will help the OPPO Find 5X Pro achieve a longer overall lifespan. Enjoy 1,600 charging cycles of the Find X5 Pro, which result in over double the lifespan! After 1,600 cycles, your phone will still maintain an impressive 80% capacity. You can now keep your phone and continue to use it for a longer amount of time, preventing landfill waste.
Wireless charging is also available at a very impressive 50W. While SuperVOOC allows you to charge your phone at unprecedented speeds, it also helps retain the life of the 5,000mAh battery that powers the Find X5 Pro.
SuperVOOC flash-charging technology will charge the Find X5 Pro from nearly 0% to 50% in only 12 minutes. 47 minutes of charging ill give you a 100% charge. With these new charging speeds, you’ll have less battery anxiety, knowing a full charge is always available in new record time.
OPPO Find X5 Pro Battery Specs:
5,000mAh capacity
80W wired charging
50W wireless charging
10W reverse wireless charging

Wireless charging is taken to a whole new level in the OPPO Find X5 Pro with AirVOOC. When you use a wireless charger with your device, you can get up to 50W charging speeds. This is even faster than many phones are capable of charging on a wired connection. Reverse wireless charging is a feature that lets you use your Find X5 Pro as a source to charge other devices. For this feature, you can charge another device at 10W, by placing it on the back of your phone.
Once we get our hands on an actual unit, we will be able to do real-life tests to see how quickly the battery can charge from 0-100% in both wired and wireless charging situations. You can share your own experience with OPPO’s SuperVOOC charging in this thread.
Thank you to OPPO for supporting this thread.
While using the OPPO Find X5 Pro as my primary device for about two months now, I've been very impressed with the battery. I use my phone throughout the day for social media, videos, and work-related stuff like email and documents. I find myself charging my phone about once a day, but only need to charge it for about 10 minutes before I'm ready to go again. I thought I'd share some insight on my battery usage so far and see how other users are liking its performance.

My Battery Life based on my UsageAt night, I use the O Relax app to play thunderstorm sounds via a Bluetooth connection to my speakers. I usually have these sounds playing for about 7 hours, which consumes about 20-25% of my battery overnight. So if you plan on using your phone with overnight ambient sleep sounds, make sure you have about a 35% charge just in case.
As you can see from my usage stats, I charge my phone once a day, usually when it gets down to about 30% capacity. Based on my phone usage, I could stretch my battery life to about 1 day and 18 hours before reaching 0%. With Power saving mode and Super power saving mode, that can be extended even more to 2 days and 15 hours.
Battery Saving Tip: I use the high refresh rate setting for my phone, which is a super nice feature to have. However, if you want to get another 9 hours of usage from your phone, change the refresh rate to 60Hz. The high refresh rate setting is the most significant factor in your battery drain speed.
Charge Speed TestTo drain my battery for this test, I looped a 4K HDR video from YouTube at full brightness. It took 5hrs to drain the battery fully.
Now for the battery charge test. I cannot use the SuperVOOC charger that came with my phone since it is a European model. Instead, I will use a 90W charger from RAVPower. The OPPO Find X5 Pro has the ability to charge at a max of 80W.
0 - 50% : 40min
0 - 100% : 80min
If you've been able to use the included charger, please share your charging results in this thread. Also, what do you think about the overall battery experience with your OPPO Find X5 Pro?
