The fact that 9 out of 10 foldable phones sold are from Samsung is already enough indication of the popularity of devices like the Galaxy Z Fold3 and Z Flip3. Precisely the latter, the shell format, is one of the most popular. All this despite a major inconvenience with the battery. However, it may soon be overtaken.
The Samsung Galaxy Z Flip4 and Z Fold4 are expected to launch in August and, despite the lack of official information, Some data leaked About them. The most recent is precisely the battery of the ‘Flip’, which would not get an outrageous improvement, but it aims to be just enough to achieve better scores than its predecessor.
A battery improvement based on what the competition has
According to the latest Gizchina leak, the new Samsung Galaxy Z Flip4 will increase battery capacity, leaving behind the 3,300 mAh that both its direct predecessor and the first generation of these Galaxy Z Flips had. Now they were going to assemble a battery of 3,700mAh.
It is also said that this battery will have a double cell layout
These data are also according to other leaks like the one he did leak Yogesh Brar at the beginning of the month, in which he filtered a good part of the characteristics of the Z Flip4. This included the aforementioned 3,700 mAh capacity, with 25W fast chargea capacity of 8 GB of RAM and the Qualcomm’s most advanced processor
As we said at the beginning, this new battery capacity wouldn’t be a breakthrough, but it would bring the Galaxy Z Flip4 closer to capacities more in line with the bending market as seen in devices like the Huawei P50 Pocket and its 4,000 mAh. And it is that, at least today, not much more can be done given the complexity of the design of the internal hardware of folding mobile phones.
In any case it is more than obvious improvement that will bring a bigger battery. And it is that in our tests carried out we have already verified that the Z Flip3, as was already the case with the first generation, the autonomy was quite rare and the 120 Hz had to be set aside in favor of the 60 Hz to have a little more decent autonomy. Therefore, any improvement in this section is welcome for this future and almost imminent generation.
