James Whister, 16 Jan 20183000mah seriously???? My htc one m8 2014 had 2600mah battery.So what? If you are well informed, technology in batteries has 0 improvement in the last years. The difference is that phones are getting bigger, so, more room to put bigger batteries and also chipsets are more power efficient. Look at what Apple can do with such tiny batteries, the iPhones 8, for example, has 1820mAh and has a decent battery life if you look at their capacity. So, to have a bigger battery, phones would have to be thicker or (even) bigger. There's no magic in putting a 4000mAh battery in a small device!

battery size is not what really matters in phones nowadays but how the phone is optimized not to consume battery and the chipset

A bit disappointing since I was hoping they would bump up the battery capacity. Well on the bright side, at least they didn't slash it like the Xiaomi Mi Mix 2, which got a whopping 1000 mAh downgrade.

BiyoBiyo JunJun, 16 Jan 2018is that really necessary put 8k screen on phone ?Ask Samsung. They focus more on the screen size and resolution than battery and endurance. Some time ago Samsung actually played with the idea of 11k mobile screens. But if it becomes reality, they will only put 4000 mah battery in the phone.

Have you notied that ALL the devices that you've mentioned except the S8/N8 are using SD835?
and according to the comment you've replied to. all 8 cores in 835 are Kryo. which are essentially COSTUM cores! (Sure. I know that there's a variant of S8/N8 with 835. but it's lower clocked) ...

secondly. I really wouldn't like to have another exploding batteries debacle. (Note 7 anyone?) so let's look at the dimensions of the S9: they are almost the same as S8. (if not a bit bigger)
How would you fit a 5k mAh battery in such a slender body? (even though it's 8.2-8.4mm thick.) I am more awaiting the Graphene batteries. which will be MUCH more energy efficient. (a slab of 3k mAh battery in Li-ion material is about 7-9k in Graphene if I'm not mistaken)

Samsung's batteries are crap anyway (Prone to swelling and dying fast), so at that price, i probably wouldn't buy a Galaxy even if they had 5000mah batteries (Which should be the norm).
And with the ridiculous remote control-like aspect ratio, i wouldd't buy one even if everything with batteries was pefect.

Another year, another Galaxy S, and the battery stays the same, small or nothing better. I wouldn't get anything under 4000 mAh, these days.

So basically, their upper midrange A series has more RAM and bigger battery capacities than their flagship S series? Samsung is very much confused at this point.

Op5 is ... moreIts because sammy is crapp...for real, all other brands except apple are better than sammy (and apple).
So...no point here, is just all of the same from all of the same 2companys and almost 10 years have past and people doesnt learn what those two brands do to their minds.
Waste of money for sure, i never, never ever no way i waste 1 cent on one of those brands of junk.
i am keeping my LG V10 ubtil it dies and move on to Huawei without a blink of an eye.
Sammy and apple are only publicity and overpriced crapppp.
