Samsung reportedly adopting new battery tech, just not the one you were hoping
- Samsung is reportedly preparing to adopt SUS CAN, a new stainless steel-based battery technology, possibly starting with the Galaxy S26 series.
- The switch to SUS CAN follows Samsung's previous reluctance to use silicon-carbon batteries despite their growing use by competitors for higher capacity and density.
- SUS CAN technology aims to improve energy density, increase charging speeds, and reduce long-term battery swelling that has affected prior Samsung models.
- Samsung SDI developed SUS CAN, and Apple has already integrated similar stainless steel battery components into the iPhone 16 Pro Max.
- This gradual upgrade might help Samsung close the gap with rivals' larger, faster-charging batteries, but exact timing and impact remain unclear and unofficial.
