TL;DR A recent leak has highlighted the battery capacities of Samsung’s upcoming wearables and one of its tablets.
That includes the Galaxy Watch 9, which is expected to feature the same battery as its predecessor.
The leak also reveals the battery on Samsung’s upcoming Galaxy Glasses with XR capabilities.
Less than a month ago, Samsung concluded one of its biggest events of the year, where it officially revealed the Galaxy S26 series. Shortly after that, at MWC 2026, Samsung also revealed its plans to equip its upcoming wearables with Qualcomm’s new Snapdragon Wear Elite platform. Now, we’re learning additional details about some of those upcoming Samsung wearables, including the Galaxy Watch 9.
A recent leak from SamMobile offers details on the upcoming Galaxy Watch 9 as well as Samsung’s debut pair of AR glasses, known so far as the “Galaxy Glasses.” According to the report, the Galaxy Watch 9 is expected to follow the years-long trend of being available in 40mm and 44mm.
Of the two, the larger model is said to feature a 435mAh battery, with a slightly higher marketed value. If the information is correct, this battery should be identical to the Galaxy Watch 8’s 44mm variant, whose battery was also rated for the same value. The actual backup could, however, depend on software optimizations, any changes to the processing platform, and the display.
There’s no information about the smaller 40mm variant or the second-generation Galaxy Watch Ultra, which is expected to launch this year.
