Highlights

Samsung Galaxy S24 series could come with a faster charging speed compared to the Galaxy S23+ and Galaxy S23 Ultra.
For this, Samsung is reportedly planning to use stacked batteries.
This technology could be limited to only two models though due to limited production capacity.

Samsung could bump the charging power on the Samsung Galaxy S24 series, according to a new tip. The current Galaxy S23+ and Galaxy S23 Ultra offer up to 45W fast charging while the vanilla S23 only gets 25W, and this has been the same since 2019. On the Galaxy S24 series, the fast charging speed could go up to 65W from the current 45W.

When it comes to battery capacity, the Galaxy S24+ and Ultra are said to pack a 5,000mAh battery. This remains unchanged from the Galaxy S23 Ultra.

Samsung Galaxy S24 series stacked batteries

Samsung is planning to use stacked batteries in the Galaxy S24+ and Galaxy S24 Ultra, according to tipster RGcloudS. Stacking, as opposed to winding technology that is currently in use, helps improve charging and performance as well and is the same technology that is used in EVs. Apple’s iPhone 15 series is also using stacked batteries, according to the tipster.

However, this will be limited to the Galaxy S24+ and Galaxy S24 Ultra due to limited production. There’s also a possibility that it might even be reserved only for the Galaxy S24 Ultra. This could mean that the Galaxy S24 will continue with 25W fast charging but nothing has been officially confirmed yet.

The tipster adds that on the Galaxy S24 Ultra, the stacked batteries will come with a cooling gel so that there’s less heat dissipation from the phone. There’s still no confirmation though as Samsung is currently running tests, and it would take some time to finalise on which models this battery tech will be used.
