Galaxy S27 Ultra and Pro battery upgrades leak, is it enough?
Key Points:
- Leaked regulatory data reveals the Galaxy S27 Ultra will have a rated battery capacity of 5,534 mAh (likely advertised around 5,700 mAh), marking a 14% increase from the S26 Ultra's 5,000 mAh advertised capacity.
- The Galaxy S27 Pro is expected to feature a rated battery capacity of 5,087 mAh (advertised around 5,200 mAh), a significant jump from the S26's 4,300 mAh despite similar physical size.
- Both the S27 Ultra and Pro models are listed with 60W wired charging support, continuing Samsung's focus on fast charging capabilities.
- While Samsung's battery upgrades are notable, competitors like Oppo are rumored to be pushing much larger batteries, such as an 8,000 mAh capacity in the Find X10, raising questions about whether Samsung's improvements are sufficient.
- Samsung is expected to adopt silicon-carbon battery technology in the S27 series, following its introduction in the Galaxy Z Fold 8, potentially enhancing battery performance and longevity.
