- Samsung is reportedly exploring more advanced “battery protection circuits” for the Galaxy S26 series, along with the previously reported SUS CAN casing.
- These upgrades could leave room for Samsung to expand the batteries in capacity.
- However, these upgrades may still not be able to compensate for the lack of a more advanced silicon-carbon battery.
Batteries on the latest Samsung Galaxy flagship phone have been a major reason for disappointment. With the Galaxy S26, Samsung may be looking to address the issue partly by improving the current battery technology and allowing for bigger batteries and potentially faster charging.
Samsung has reportedly entered a new agreement with South Korea’s ITM Semiconductor Co. for specialized solutions to extend the longevity of batteries to be used in the Galaxy S26 series. These solutions will include the use of additive fillers that reinforce batteries for protection against physical stressors.
