In February this year, Samsung held a new product conference and officially released the Galaxy S23 series, bringing S23, S23+ and S23Ultra three models. By convention, there are still about 10 months to go before the release of the next generation of Samsung's flagship Galaxy S24 series, which means that the development of the internal components of the new machine should be close to completion to allow enough time for testing and improvement. As time progresses, news about new aircraft is also emerging. On April 24, Mobile China learned from foreign media that Samsung is planning to use the stacking design of electric vehicle batteries on the Galaxy S24 series.
Samsung SDI, a battery manufacturer under Samsung Group, said R&D (Research & Development) is looking to move stacked batteries into the smartphone business. It should be noted that this move is not intended to change the chemical composition of the battery, but rather to change the arrangement of the batteries, which means that the technology will allow higher capacities to be installed in the same volume.
We know that smartphone batteries work in a very different environment compared to batteries for electric cars. According to one report, batteries produced using the stacking method are expected to increase capacity by 10%.
It is understood that Samsung Galaxy S23 has a built-in 3900mAh battery, Galaxy S23+ built-in 4700mAh battery, and Galaxy S23 Ultra built-in 5000mAh battery. Adopting the technology doesn't necessarily mean that the Galaxy S24 Ultra will come with a 5500mAh battery. Samsung prefers to fit the same capacity in a smaller battery to make room for other components or make the phone more compact.
