FULL STORY
======================================================================

The Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 6 is fast approaching, with a launch rumored for 
July  but whether it will be worth buying is another matter entirely, because 
one of the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 6 upgrades we most want apparently wont be 
happening. 

This is according to leaker @UniverseIce , who has a good track record and 
claims on X that the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 6 will have a 4,400mAh battery 
with 25W charging. If that sounds familiar its probably because those are 
exactly the same battery specs as the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 5 . 

Now, we dont expect every spec to improve with every new model, but the 
battery is definitely among the most needed upgrades, as 4,400mAh is 
positively tiny for a phone with two screens  one of which is likely to be 
almost tablet-sized. Regarding the Galaxy Z Fold6 battery, it is still 
4400mAh and has a charging power of 25w. April 4, 2024 See more 

Its also smaller than the batteries in key foldable rivals like the OnePlus 
Open and the Google Pixel Fold , so its unlikely that there are technical 
reasons for keeping it this small. 

A 25W charging speed is also disappointingly slow, especially when you 
consider that the Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra can manage 45W. But the OnePlus 
Open has even more charging power at 67W, and some phones can reach well over 
100W. 

So if this leak is accurate then the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 6 will have a 
small, slow charging battery. While theres a chance @UniverseIce is wrong, 
they sound very confident, adding in a follow up post that this is the final 
configuration. Theres still some hope 

That said, while this also matches up with an earlier Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 6 
battery leak , its at odds with another previous leak, which suggested the Z 
Fold 6 would have a slightly larger 4,600mAh battery . So that remains a 
possibility. 

Our greatest hope though comes from rumors of a Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 6 Ultra 
, which if it exists may well have a bigger battery. 

That said, whether this phone exists is still in question, and a recent leak 
suggested the Galaxy Z Fold 6 Ultra might only launch in South Korea , so 
getting hold of it could be easier said than done. You might also like The
