Samsung reportedly adopting new battery tech, just not the one you were hoping
- Samsung plans to adopt a new battery technology called SUS CAN in upcoming Galaxy devices, possibly starting with the Galaxy S26 series.
- This decision follows Samsung's lag in battery innovations compared to competitors using silicon-carbon technology for higher capacity and thinner profiles.
- SUS CAN, developed by Samsung SDI, uses stainless steel to improve energy density, reduce swelling, and enable faster charging in lithium-ion batteries.
- The Elec, via @Jukanlosreve, reported that while exact timing is unclear, Samsung aims to address swelling issues and boost battery capacities over 6,000mAh, similar to phones like the OnePlus 13T.
- Samsung's move suggests a gradual improvement rather than a revolutionary leap, with the technology expected first in premium models and no official timeline announced yet.
