Galaxy S26 officially ends weak battery problem after 6 years

Samsung S26 Ultra reveals 5,200 mAh battery, promises impressive battery life and is ready to compete strongly with Chinese smartphones in the market.

Samfan is about to have good news after many years of waiting, when Samsung is preparing to upgrade the battery capacity of the highest-end Galaxy S26 line. Although the number is not really outstanding, this is a remarkable step forward compared to previous generations.

TechRadar sources said that this improvement helps the Galaxy S26 extend its usage time, better meeting the need for continuous experience. Fastidious users may not be completely satisfied, but this is a positive signal for Samsung's flagship line.

Samsung has finally increased the battery capacity of the Galaxy S26 Ultra after many years of keeping the same number. Although the device will not officially launch until early 2026, leaked information about the Galaxy S26 series has begun to appear densely. This time, all eyes are on the battery of the most advanced version - the Galaxy S26 Ultra.

Samsung is preparing to upgrade the battery capacity for the highest-end Galaxy S26 series.

According to a source from reputable leaker Momentary Digital, the Galaxy S26 Ultra will have a 5,200 mAh battery. If accurate, this is the first time since the Galaxy S20 Ultra in 2020 that Samsung has changed the battery capacity for the Ultra line. This change, although small, marks a step forward after many generations of "standing still".

Previously, users have gone through 6 consecutive generations from S20 Ultra to S25 Ultra with a fixed 5,000 mAh battery. The 200 mAh increase may be modest, but it is a positive signal in the face of pressure from Chinese competitors. Some brands have equipped 5,500 mAh or even 6,000 mAh batteries for flagships for a long time.

The standard Galaxy S26 version will also have an improved battery, expected to increase from 4,000 mAh to 4,300 mAh. This capacity increase will help the device last longer during the day. Despite its compact size, the device can still meet daily usage needs well. Thanks to that, the user experience will be significantly improved.

Not only the Ultra version, the standard Galaxy S26 version is also expected to have improved battery.

In addition to the battery, leaks also reveal that the Galaxy S26 Ultra will have super-thin screen bezels, approaching the 7-inch mark. A larger screen means more power consumption, so a 5,200 mAh battery is needed to keep the battery life stable. This design combines both luxury and high performance.

However, the tech world remains cautious. Some previous leaks from August still confirmed that the battery will remain at 5,000 mAh. Therefore, users will have to wait until the Galaxy Unpacked event in early 2026 to know the exact specifications.

Overall, although the battery increase is not large, Samsung's adjustment of the capacity for the Galaxy S26 Ultra is still a positive signal. This is a necessary step to compete with rivals and meet the long-term usage needs of users. The launch event will be the time to confirm all the information, promising to attract a lot of attention in the technology world.
