Samsung Introduces Improved Battery Tech for Galaxy Lineup

Samsung is set to enhance its Galaxy lineup with a new battery technology, although it may not be the groundbreaking innovation that was anticipated. According toa report from a Korean outlet, Samsung is poised to incorporate a new stainless steel-based battery component known as "SUS CAN." While this technology offers benefits such as increased energy density, faster charging speeds, and addressing battery swelling issues, it falls short of the highly praised silicon-carbon battery technology seen in other flagship devices. Despite this, the introduction of SUS CAN, developed by Samsung SDI, represents a significant advancement in battery technology for Samsung.

While silicon-carbon batteries have been a coveted feature in smartphones like the OnePlus 13T and Oppo Find N5, Samsung's latest models, including the recently launched Galaxy S25 Edge, have stuck with traditional lithium-ion batteries, resulting in comparatively smaller capacities and slower progress across generations. The shift to SUS CAN technology hints at Samsung's commitment to enhancing battery performance and user experience in its upcoming Galaxy Z Fold 7 or Galaxy S26 series.
