The company has not made a final decision on the switch though.

Samsung's Procurement unit is definitely showing its ugly head.

        Great! After 1 year they will be able to integrate Si/C batteries into their phones and they will finally have time to release A15 for S24U. 🤣🤣🤣

          justasmile, 11 Feb 2025Ok, fair enough, not too late, but not early either.I mean, even if the S26 series finally gets Si/C batteries it would still mean that they were one of the slowest, so I'd say it's late.

            I will believe when it comes out, they just haven't finished updating Android 15 and this rumor comes out. I get a lot of rumors that the S25 will use Exynos but the facts are Snapdragon and vice versa... don't believe Samsung.

              duh, finally!

              but the source of this news is new to me. Never heard of them before.

                  Good move. But will wait for s27 series instead. Because already bought s24+ runs fine. While plus versions are the least popular models I love them the most.

                    samsung should use graphene batteries for their phones.

                        New battery, new processor, but the same old 10mp upscaling 3x zoom garbage camera? :D

                          Took them long enough.

                            I actually hope this pans out and we don't wake up in 2026 that Samsung had to scrap this idea and return to regular Li-Ion batteries.

                                Ok, fair enough, not too late, but not early either.
