Samsung and Apple are working together on bringing new cutting-edge battery technology which will aim at delivering higher capacities without compromising the sleekness of their flagship smartphones. This comes as Chinese manufacturers, like Oppo and Red Magic, lead the market with smartphones featuring batteries exceeding 7,000mAh.
Samsung’s plan to boost battery capacity with silicon technology
According to a report on Naver, Samsung is developing advanced anode and cathode materials to significantly increase the silicon content in its batteries. This innovation is part of the company's ambitious new battery development initiative. The increased silicon composition is expected to address challenges like battery swelling and improve overall performance.
While Samsung has not revealed a launch timeline for smartphones equipped with the new battery tech, the development hints at a substantial leap in battery capacity for its future devices.
Apple’s battery innovation expected by 2026
Apple is also said to be working on its own battery advancements. The Cupertino giant could introduce the upgraded technology in its 2026 flagship smartphones, as per the report.
Chinese smartphone makers lead the battery race
While Samsung and Apple are focusing on R&D, Chinese brands are already pushing boundaries with massive battery capacities. The Red Magic 10 Pro features a 7,050mAh battery, and Oppo is rumoured to be working on devices with up to 7,000mAh batteries. Reports suggest that Chinese firms might even introduce phones with 8,000mAh batteries later this year.
These developments highlight a growing competition in the smartphone industry, with manufacturers striving to balance performance, design, and battery life.
