The EU now requires that all smartphones and tablets sold in the union have a new ENERGY label on their packaging. It also briefly created a database called “European Product Registry for Energy Labeling” or “Iprel”. It’s valuable information and now we are now incorporating it into our Specs pages to help research the phone before you buy.
EU Energy Label Information Now includes in our Specs Pages
The first things first, this is an EU item so this is the data only in the models sold in the EU. Also, data is provided by the manufacturers by the manufacturers or with the tests conducted by a third-party lab.
This means that data does not come from an independent source. He said that any inaccurate information should be updated as soon as the spot is spot-EU will be responsible for providing accurate information and can use third-party labs to test its own.
It should also be noted that some manufacturers – the biggest of being Apple Pal – is not happy with how testing processes are defined. Cupertino claims that some tests are also less defined or vague. You can read more about it. The European Commission will take input from manufacturers and can update testing processes in the future.
To help you better understand what all of these numbers and letters mean, we have updated our glossy with clarity and details on the key information listed on the label. Start here: EU Energy Label. After that, you can focus on the entrance to the EnerGy Efficiency Class, the battery endurance (both endurance on the same charge and the life in terms of the charge cycle), the screen protection (measured as hardness on the MOHS scale), repair and free fall repair.
You can find EU Energy Label information for the phone and tablets listed at the bottom of the specs table under the “EU Label” heading.
