The release of Samsung's upcoming Galaxy Z Fold smartphone, which is expected to be available this summer, is approaching According to the latest rumors, Samsung will not upgrade the battery of the upcoming Galaxy Z Fold 6, but it won't be that big of a deal and we can even expect improved battery life

The battery size leak comes from Ice Universe, a serial leaker who is reputed to be quite reliable This leaker claims that Samsung will use the same 4,400mAh battery that is found in the Galaxy Z Fold 3, 4, and 5 Interestingly, Samsung used a 4,500mAh battery in the Galaxy Z Fold 2

However, despite the same battery size, Samsung is improving battery life with each phone For example, in our review of the Z Fold 5, the Z Fold 4 had a drain test of 10 hours and 55 minutes, compared to 9 hours and 17 minutes for the Z Fold 5 [The Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 in the Galaxy Z Fold 6 is more power efficient than the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 in last year's model, so we expect the same to happen with the Galaxy Z Fold 6 Battery life will not be an issue

The new model should also offer the same or better battery life, but I'm a little disappointed that leaked information suggests that Samsung will stick with the same 25W charging speed as the previous generation having such a slow charging speed in a $1,800 phone is a bit underwhelming I feel it's a little unsatisfactory

Of course, these are rumors and could be wrong We won't know for sure until Samsung announces everything about the upcoming Z Fold model We will have to wait a few months to know the final specs and features This is because Samsung is expected to launch this phone in August 2024, the same month it launched the past few generations It is also expected that Samsung will launch the Galaxy Z Fold 6 Ultra, but this model may only be available in Korea
