Galaxy S25 Ultra battery certified months ahead of launch

Phone

The batteries that will likely be used on the Galaxy S25 Ultra have picked up certification from India's Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS). This comes a couple of weeks after we learned that Samsung is not looking to bring a battery capacity upgrade with the standard Galaxy S25 model.

The Galaxy S25 Ultra batteries sport model numbers EB-BS938ABE and EB-BS938ABY, and that's the only thing we learn from the BIS certificate. The capacities aren't mentioned, which is standard fare for such certifications.

However, we can expect Samsung to stick with a 5,000 mAh battery for the Galaxy S25 Ultra. That capacity is more than enough to handle anything these Ultra handsets are capable of, especially when combined with the highly efficient nature of today's smartphone chips.

While some wild rumors have claimed that Samsung could use three different chips for the Galaxy S25 lineup, the Ultra model could exclusively use a Snapdragon chip in all markets, similar to the Galaxy S24 Ultra.

Nothing is certain at this time, though. 2025 is still six months away, so it will be a while before we get a solid picture of what to expect from Samsung's next Galaxy S flagship.

For now, we look forward to the Galaxy Z Fold 6 and Galaxy Z Flip 6. Samsung will unveil the new foldables at its Galaxy Unpacked event in Paris on July 10, along with several wearable devices, including the Galaxy Ring and Galaxy Watch Ultra.

Reserve the next Galaxy!
