The Galaxy S26 Edge battery rumors just got even more promising

androidauthority.com Unknown 2025-12-17 23:46:21

TL;DR A new leak suggests the Galaxy S26 Edge will have a 4,400mAh battery. That’s noticeably up from 3,900mAh in the S25 Edge and slightly more than a previous 4,200mAh claim. Both leaks point to Samsung addressing one of the biggest complaints about the S25 Edge. The Galaxy S25 Edge was one of Samsung’s most criticized flagships of recent years, and much of that frustration rightly centered on battery life.
