   Every since the new EU energy efficiency regs came in this summer I've been   
   curious to do some analysis to understand the implications.   
      
   So, here it is. Have a look and see what you think.   
   https://rpubs.com/ithinkiam/1384638   
      
   Take home messages are:   
      
   1. There are lot more phones on the market that I would have guessed.   
   2. Although, there are some trends between the energy classes, it isn't   
   very clear cut overall.   
   3. Within the 5,000 mAh segment the difference between each A-G classes is   
   equivalent to approx. 15% or over an hour per 1,000 mAh.   
   4. Apple improved their battery capacity and efficiency significantly with   
   the most recent models.   
   5. A Moto model is, on average, likely a better option than Samsung in   
   terms of battery alone.   
      
   I know this is EU-specific and since Brexit not directly relevant to the   
   UK, but most models are available here and some manufacturers are showing   
   these EU ratings within the UK.   
      
   For our US cousins note that some models - especially Motorola from what   
   I've seen - will be different or may not even exist on your side of the   
   pond.   
      
   This analysis is not meant to start a flame war and is presented   
   objectively in good faith. I will be revisiting this over time and will   
   share here if people are interested.
