The Samsung Galaxy S24 series that includes the standard model, Galaxy S24+ and the flagship Galaxy S24 Ultra arrived in January with a host of new features and updated processors. While their successors aren't expected to arrive for several months, rumors about next year's Galaxy S series phones have already started to surface online. Over the past few weeks, we've discovered details about the cameras and chipset of the alleged Samsung Galaxy S25. Now the phone's battery details have surfaced online.
Samsung Galaxy S25 battery details leaked
GalaxyClub reports (in Dutch) that the Galaxy S25 will be equipped with a 4,000 mAh battery, just like the current generation Galaxy S24 model. The upcoming phone's battery is said to have a nominal capacity of 3,881 mAh like its predecessor and this could translate to an advertised typical capacity of 4,000 mAh.
The publication also claims that the South Korean tech conglomerate has registered the name “Galaxy S25” in Mexico to protect the brand. The phone is said to have the model number SM-S931.
Samsung battery upgrades to previous Galaxy S series phones
The battery capacity of the Galaxy S series smartphones has undergone changes over the past few years. The older Galaxy S20 and Galaxy S21 models came with a 4,000mAh battery, while the Galaxy S22 had a smaller 3,700mAh battery. Samsung equipped the Galaxy S23 model released in January 2023 with a 3,900 mAh battery.
The Galaxy S24 has received an increase in battery capacity from 100 mAh to 4,000 mAh. While enthusiasts might have hoped for an increase in battery capacity beyond 4,000mAh by 2025, the report suggests that may not happen. The Galaxy S24+ and Galaxy S24 Ultra are equipped with 4,900mAh and 5,000mAh battery units, respectively.
It's recommended to take these details with a grain of salt, as the alleged Samsung Galaxy S25 isn't expected to debut for several months.
Samsung could announce the Galaxy S25 lineup with significant design changes in January 2025, according to the company's previous release schedules. The vanilla model features a larger 6.36-inch screen; the existing model has a 6.2-inch screen. It is likely to run on the Exynos 2500 chipset in all markets. Samsung is rumored to ditch ISOCELL sensors and use Sony image sensors as the main camera on the Galaxy S25 and Galaxy S25+.
