Battery specification is a deal breaker for most of the smartphone users across the globe to decide whether to purchase a particular phone or not. Some of the smartphones house killer battery units, while the others tweak the software, display and provide a modest battery unit.

It is worth mentioning that, even though users look at the battery specification before buying a phone, the efficiency of the battery should also be calculated from the time/hours taken to charge a phone to 100 per cent. Apparently, this is one of the parameters neglected by the potential buyers. Here is a list of top 5 smartphones of 2014 that charges faster than their counterparts, collated by Phone Arena.
