A new rumor suggests Samsung's Galaxy S26 might be packed with a 7,000 mAh battery, thanks to new Silicon-Carbon technology.
In what seems to be a fresh Samsung Galaxy S26 rumor, the Galaxy S25's successor is reportedly being improved to accommodate the Silicon-Carbon (Si/C) battery technology that could help enhance its battery capacity.

This could be the South Korean giant's shot to allow Samsung Galaxy S26 to have it at 7,000 mAh.

Silicon-Carbon Battery Technology on Galaxy S26

Silicon-carbon batteries are a major breakthrough in mobile battery technology. Unlike traditional batteries that use graphite in the cathode material, Silicon-carbon batteries replace graphite with silicon.

This change significantly improves the battery's energy storage capacity, allowing manufacturers to fit higher capacity batteries into the same or even slimmer form factors, according to South Korean outlet FN News.

This may be the key to resolving the long-term issue of battery longevity in smartphones. Consumers will still want to see longer-lasting devices, and this innovation can finally deliver that promise without the need for a significant size or weight increase in the phone.
