Samsung Galaxy S25 Plus existence confirmed in a new battery leak. The company will likely fuel the S25 Plus with the same battery as its predecessor. Is 4900mAh enough in 2025 when rival brands considering 5500mAh and beyond?
The Galaxy S25 Plus could be equipped with a 4900mAh battery. GalaxyClub reports that the S25+’s battery will have a rated capacity of 4,755mAh. It suggests that no battery upgrade in this year’s Plus model, unlike the Galaxy S24 series.
Samsung could launch the Galaxy S25 lineup in January 2025. Since the battery upgrade isn’t likely, the efficiency is expected to be improved. This year’s flagship models will use a 3nm-based chipset, compared to the 4nm of the S24 series.
This generational change is massive, as the smaller chip size will result in increased battery life. That said, the same 4900mAh battery is quite promising – paired with optimized software, it will marginally boost the performance.
While Chinese phone makers upping the battery capacity game, Samsung fans shouldn’t have to worry about it. It is noted that flagship Galaxy phones offer better battery performance than their rivals having larger battery cells.
The Galaxy S25 Plus will most likely use the Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 Galaxy chip. It is being manufactured by TSMC using its 3nm process technology. Therefore, we can expect a slight increment in terms of battery efficiency.
