Samsung’s next cheap phone will have a much bigger battery than the Galaxy S26 Ultra

According to a new report, Samsung’s upcoming mid-range smartphone is getting a big battery upgrade that outdoes that company’s current $1,400 flagship.

GalaxyClub reports that the Samsung Galaxy A38 will ship with a 6,000 mAh battery. That’s a 20% jump over Samsung’s typical 5,000 mAh batteries that have been in Galaxy A series phones for the past few years, and is also a 20% jump from the company’s current flagship Galaxy S26 Ultra.

Compared to the likes of many other Android phones on the international market, 6,000 mAh isn’t huge . Honor, for example, launched new phones with 10,000 mAh batteries just a couple of weeks ago. But in the context of Samsung, this is a welcome step forward. The company finally embraced silicon-carbon in its latest foldables and, while it’s unclear if that’s what we’re seeing here, it’s very obvious that Samsung is making a push to increase its battery capacity moving forward.

Based on the Galaxy A37’s launch date , the Galaxy A38 is likely to make its debut in early 2027.

Galaxy S27 is rumored to make some minor battery upgrades as well.
