The Samsung Galaxy S II, with its amoled display is very good, can withstand temperatures far below zero pockets, while the iPhone 4 and the Nokia N9 already at -5 ° C to give you problems. That suggests a Finnish computer magazine in a test.

MikroPC tested the fifteen most popular smartphones in Finland will be sold. Also, for reference, some older feature-phones included. The aircraft were in a climatic chamber placed and the temperature was in each test cycle, with five degrees reduced, until eventually each unit of service refused.

At 0°C remained all the devices will work, but at -5°C started the iPhone 4 and Nokia N9 all problems to exhibit. The N9 gave notifications that the battery was almost empty and the iPhone showed a sim card error. At -10°C was the iPhone 4 with a message about a faulty battery. The iPhone, however, was not the only one; other devices with a lcd-screen gave at this temperature problems. Unexpectedly, is this; Apple is giving itself an operating temperature for its smartphone that is between 0 and 35°C.

Around the temperature level of -15 to -20°C, refused almost all the smartphones service, while a few feature-phones used in the test were brought to -25°C continued to work. The winning smartphone in the test, however, was the Samsung Galaxy S II; the device would only at -35°C off. Also would the amoled display do not delay giving in spite of the severe frost. Two feature-phones of Nokia knew it even to -40°C vol: the Nokia C1-01 and the Nokia E65.

In the tests, signed MikroPC that most of the smartphones of the spirit gifts by a battery that is too cold, it was because of this insufficient voltage know. This think a cell phone that the battery is low and turn off. The delays in the pixelweergave on lcd’s are at low temperatures caused by the increasing viscosity in the liquid crystals. An amoled display would be by the organic material not sensitive to this phenomenon.
