X Series: Battery Level & Battery Life

Applicable Models: ONE X, X2, X3, X4, and X5

This article summarizes battery life data under different modes and environments, as well as the estimated standby time with a full charge. All battery life data mentioned herein is measured under specific laboratory conditions for different camera models. Actual battery life may vary due to multiple factors, including shooting modes and parameter settings, ambient temperature, device status, and whether features like Bluetooth Wakeup are enabled.

2. Battery life in low-temperature environments

In low-temperature environments, the camera's battery life varies depending on temperature, shooting mode, and settings. The table below shows the battery life of different camera models under specific low-temperature conditions (laboratory test data, for reference only):

Ambient Temperature	X5	X4	X3	X2	ONE X
Test Conditions	Laboratory low-temperature chamber, screen off, Wi-Fi set to Auto, High Bitrate, and recording at 8K@30fps		Screen off, Wi-Fi set to Auto, and 360 video recording at 5.7K@30fps
32°F (0°C)	About 88 minutes	About 71 minutes	/	/	/
14°F (-10°C)	About 88 minutes	About 68 minutes	About 80 minutes	32°F (0°C) to 14°F (-10°C): About 75 minutes	About 45 minutes
-4°F (-20°C)	About 88 minutes	About 65 minutes	/	14°F (-10°C) to -4°F (-20°C): About 70 minutes	/

3. Estimated standby time with full charge

Camera	Environmental Conditions	Power-off Method / Function State	Time until Full Battery Depletion
X5	Standard environment, room temperature 77°F (25°C)	Powered off when fully charged + Bluetooth Wakeup off	About 320 days
X5		Powered off when fully charged + Bluetooth Wakeup on	About 40 days
X4		Powered off when fully charged + Bluetooth Wakeup off	About 315 days
X4		Powered off when fully charged + Bluetooth Wakeup on	About 38 days
X3		Powered off when fully charged	About 100 days
X2	/	/	/
ONE X	Ambient temperature	Powered off normally (powered off after a period of use)	About 25 days
		Powered off quickly (powered off immediately after power-on)	About 6 days
		Removing and reinstalling battery after power-off / Directly removing battery, followed by power-off	About 130 days
		Default standby power consumption (Bluetooth and clock modules)	About 12 days

Please note:

You can make the camera enter the lowest power consumption state and extend its standby time by removing and reinstalling its battery after power-off or directly removing the battery.
It is also recommended to turn off the Bluetooth Wakeup feature to effectively reduce the standby power consumption.

FAQ

Can the camera be charged overnight? Will it damage the camera?

No, it will not damage the camera. The camera has a charging protection mechanism similar to mobile phones, and it automatically stops charging once fully charged. However, to maintain long-term battery health, it is recommended to disconnect the power supply promptly after it is fully charged.
