COMPARE BYPASS CHARGING!! NUBIA SAMSUNG REALME INFINIX IQOO

Summary of the video (bypass charging comparison)

Core claim: “True” vs “fake” bypass charging

• True bypass charging (genuine hardware bypass): when bypass is active, incoming power/current should not pass through the battery, so the measured battery input power drops to ~0.
• Software bypass (not genuine): the phone still routes some current through the battery, but software reduces/adjusts power during charging or gaming. This is why readings can fluctuate (sometimes not near zero).

Testing method / tools (key user experience detail)

The tester uses:

• a USB power/current measurement tool (USB “ductter”)
• a Scan app to observe incoming watts

They test by:

1. Plugging in the charger
2. Measuring incoming power
3. Enabling bypass (or game-mode behavior)
4. Re-checking whether the battery shows near 0 W or still shows power draw

Products tested & what the video says

1) Nubia Neo 3G (Nubia) — True hardware bypass

Result

• When bypass charging is enabled, the incoming power drops to zero on the meter.
• Even while gaming, it stays 0, indicating bypass is not routing charging through the battery.

Pros

• “Really safe” according to the tester (because it’s true bypass).
• Stable behavior while gaming.

Cons

• No explicit cons mentioned.

---

2) Samsung Galaxy A26 — Not true bypass (software/limited behavior)

Result

• Samsung bypass is described as being available in Game Booster / gaming mode using Samsung’s USB PD charging support.
• With bypass/PD gaming charging:
  • Power readings do not go to zero
  • The change is not real-time (you must wait); behavior can “reset” / fluctuate
• The tester explicitly contrasts this with Nubia: Samsung still passes through the battery.

Pros

• Feature exists, and PD charging can be managed during gaming.

Cons

• Not genuine (battery still sees current)
• Delayed / inconsistent activation in real time
• Requires compatible setup (mentions Samsung doesn’t include a charger; you need to buy a PD charger)

3) Realme 14 — Software bypass-like behavior (not fully smart/true)

Result

• Initially shows normal incoming watts (tens of watts).
• When entering game mode, incoming power is reduced (drops to roughly 8–9 W), and later returns to higher values outside game mode.
• When bypass is enabled:
  • After some waiting, power can drop, but it still doesn’t behave like true bypass
  • The tester says the software is not smart enough under heavy input load (controller/game activity), so readings continue and can rise (mentions up to ~4 W and fluctuating values like 3–5 W).

Pros

• Gaming mode can reduce incoming power.

Cons

• Does not reach ~0 W reliably when bypass is active
• Software limitations; not stable under conditions with many “inputs” (their wording)

---

4) Infinix GT30 Pro — True hardware bypass

Result

• Bypass can be activated from the regular menu, not only via gaming menu.
• When bypass is active, the meter shows the battery/input going to zero.
• The tester calls it hardware bypass and says it matches the “original” behavior like Nubia.

Pros

• Hardware-level genuine bypass behavior (drops to ~0 W).
• Works both in gaming and via menu.

Cons

• No explicit cons mentioned.

5) IQ Neo 10 — Similar to Realme (not fully true hardware bypass)

Result

• After enabling bypass charging, power drops quickly but does not consistently hit 0 W.
• Readings fluctuate around a few watts (examples given include 8 W, then 4–5 W, then 3–5 W after waiting).
• The tester concludes it behaves more like a software bypass / partial bypass, similar to Realme.

Pros

• Bypass appears available in the menu.
• Response is described as fast.

Cons

• Still shows current entering the battery (doesn’t qualify as “true bypass” per the tester’s definition)

---

Overall conclusion / recommendation (verdict)

• Truly genuine bypass charging (hardware, ~0 W): Nubia Neo 3G and Infinix GT30 Pro.
• Not genuine true bypass (software/partial; still routes current): Samsung Galaxy A26, Realme 14, IQ Neo 10.
• If your priority is minimizing battery charging current during charging/gaming, the video recommends models that show near-zero battery input power when bypass is enabled—based on their results, Nubia and Infinix match that standard best.

---

Unique points mentioned (distinct claims/features)

• “Dangerous truth” framing: some bypass charging is genuine, some isn’t.
• Definition of genuine bypass: no incoming current passes through the battery; battery input power goes to zero.
• Software bypass definition: bypass claims but battery still receives current; power may fluctuate.
• Tester uses USB current/power meter + Scan app for input/current readouts.
• Samsung requires USB PD charger setup and bypass behavior in Game Booster; activation not real-time.
• Realme game mode reduces incoming power but bypass is software-limited; may require waiting and still leaves several watts.
• Infinix GT30 Pro bypass works from regular menu and is hardware (battery power to zero).
• IQ Neo 10 reduces power quickly after bypass but still not true zero; behaves like Realme.
• Explanation question: why IQ still shows battery current—residual capacitor energy was suggested by IQ team (tester relays this as an explanation and asks viewers what they think).
• Comparison/benchmarking: inferred that brands from the same company may use similar hardware features (they reference grouping and choose a representative model).

Speaker-wise notes

• Only one main tester/speaker is present in the subtitles.
• The speaker includes reported comments from brand teams:
  • IQ team: residual energy in capacitors may be routed to the battery, explaining why it still shows current even during bypass.
