The Samsung Galaxy S25 series, recently unveiled, features battery specifications that are largely similar to the Galaxy S24 models. However, improvements in efficiency and performance are expected to enhance overall battery life.
Battery Specifications
- Galaxy S25: 4,000mAh- Galaxy S25+: 4,900mAh
- Galaxy S25 Ultra: 5,000mAh
These capacities mirror those of the Galaxy S24 series, which also had the same battery sizes across its models[1][5].
Expected Improvements in Battery Life
Samsung claims that the Galaxy S25 series will deliver "unparalleled battery life," with the S25 Ultra reportedly capable of supporting video playback for up to 31 hours, compared to 30 hours for the S24 Ultra[1][7]. This slight increase is attributed to the new Snapdragon 8 Elite processor, which offers improved energy efficiencyâup to 40% better NPU performance, 30% better GPU, and 37% better CPU performance compared to its predecessor[1][6].Real-World Performance
Early tests suggest that the Galaxy S25 Ultra lasts around seven hours and five minutes during intensive usage scenarios, which is competitive but slightly less than some other flagship models[3]. In contrast, the Galaxy S24 Ultra had an impressive endurance of 16 hours and 45 minutes in web browsing tests, indicating that while battery sizes are unchanged, the efficiency gains from the new chipset may lead to better performance under specific conditions[2].Conclusion
While the battery capacities of the Galaxy S25 and S24 models are identical, advancements in processing power and efficiency in the S25 series are likely to yield improved battery life during typical use. Users considering an upgrade may find value in these enhancements, particularly if they utilize demanding applications or features frequently.Citations:
