Confirming NOVO8′s 4-5 Hour Battery Life – Confirmed

We decided to do a little test to see whether or not Ainol’s NOVO8 does indeed have a battery life of 4 to 5 hours with WiFi constantly on. For good measure, we turned the brightness up to a realistically bright setting of around 70%, and turned the screen timeout to ‘never timeout’. Our results can be found after the break (Or in the title)

We turned the fully charged NOVO8 on at 10:00am and then periodically checked the battery life every 2 hours after that. After two hours – 12:00pm – the battery level showed to be at 51% which was a surprising cut-in-half for just two hours. In terms of what the battery use was: the device standby was at 73%, the display was at 18% and the WiFi was at 11%. We checked again on the fourth hour of turning on the tablet – 02:00pm – which showed the battery level to be at 35%. It was during the fourth and fifth hour that the battery died, as when we checked at 03:00pm, the tablet was turned off.

This concludes that with WiFi constantly on, and having the NOVO8′s brightness level set at above half, the NOVO8 does indeed last for up to 4 to 5 hours. Hooray!
