But when we turn on the screen, we will find that the S23’s screen frame is very narrow, so the body of the same size can be equipped with a 6.1-inch larger screen, which is larger than the 5.9-inch Zenfone 10, and it feels better visually. In addition, both phones have IP68 waterproof and dustproof functions, wireless charging and stereo dual speakers, but Zenfone 10 adds a 3.5mm headphone jack.
The Zenfone 10 we tested may be the better 16GB/512GB version, so the running score is better than the S23. But today, the performance of mobile phones is too high for most users. Whether a mobile phone is good or not depends on whether the functions are innovative and whether it is regulated by using big data and Mechine Learning artificial intelligence. It’s just that everyone is used to looking at the running score, we’ll do it for you to see, so, everyone, don’t just look at the running score too much. The actual test data comparison is provided below.

Endurance test
As for the endurance test, we also tested it by continuously playing high-quality video. We will turn off the automatic brightness of the mobile phone, adjust the screen brightness and volume to 50%, and set the refresh rate to 60Hz, then connect to the Internet through Wi-Fi, and play the same YouTube high-definition video continuously for an hour. The test results show that after playing the S23 for an hour, the battery capacity dropped from 53% to 47%, which means a drop of 6 percentage points. Converted to a full charge, you can watch YouTube continuously for 20 hours. The test results of Zenfone 10 are even better, dropping from 51% to 48%, which means a net drop of 3 percentage points. The full charge can last for more than 30 hours, which is satisfactory. Note that the S23 itself has a small battery, and it has been playing streaming videos for more than 20 hours, which is already very good. The Zenfone 10 itself has a relatively large-capacity battery, and its battery life is even better. In the actual test, it can play videos continuously for more than 30 hours when fully charged. Another thing is that during the female fire test, we will turn off the automatic brightness of the screen and adjust it to about 50% brightness. Under this setting, the screen of S23 is obviously lighter than Zenfone 10, which is one of the reasons why S23 lost to Zenfone 10 this time.

Audiovisual performance
In terms of audio and video performance, both phones have a high refresh rate function, the S23 can achieve 120Hz, and the Zenfone 10 can achieve 144Hz. But in the default display mode, the display color of S23 will be more saturated and pleasing than Zenfone 10. The official screen brightness specifications also show that the S23 wins, which can explain the brightness difference just mentioned. In fact, the brightness performance of the two phones is enough for daily use. Unless you often operate the phone outdoors, the brightness of the S23 will indeed be better.
In terms of the performance of the stereo dual speakers, the two mobile phones are both top-notch, with large volume and excellent sound quality, which can be said to be comparable. However, the tone style is slightly different. The tone of S23 is brighter, the treble is more prominent, the vocals are more prominent, and the overall feeling is more solid; the bass of Zenfone 10 is better, which is the effect that few mobile phones can produce. Whether playing games or watching movies, the speakers of the two mobile phones are good points. We also provide two recordings to compare the actual effect difference of the two mobile phones. It is recommended that you wear headphones to listen to the scare and feel the difference when playing.
▲ The screen resolution of S23 (upper left in the picture) is 1080×2340, the normal brightness is 1200nits, and the peak value can reach 1700nits. The screen resolution of Zenfone 10 (bottom right in the picture) is 1080×2400, the ratio is wider, the normal brightness is 800nits, and the peak value is 1100nits.
