Samsung Galaxy S21 battery performance has been made to improve over the Galaxy S20. The newly released model is speculated to come in Snapdragon and Exynos variants (just like its predecessors) and both variants are made to get significant improvement in battery life.
Key Specs
Display :6.20-inch
Processor: Samsung Exynos 2100
Front Camera :10-megapixel
Rear Camera: 64-megapixel + 12-megapixel + 12-megapixel
RAM:8GB
Storage: 128GB
Battery Capacity: 4000mAh
OS :Android 11
Resolution :1080×2400 pixels
However, an earlier tipster had suggested that the Galaxy S21 is expected to be part of the Samsung Galaxy S21 series along with Galaxy S21+ and Galaxy S21 Ultra and would have a similar battery (mAh) capacity as the Galaxy S20,so it looks like this is a case of better battery optimisation, rather than a bigger battery in the phone. Samsung is also expected to offer fast wired and wireless charging support on the Samsung Galaxy S21.
This means that the Galaxy S21 — irrespective of the chipset — could get an average improvement of 20 percent in battery life over the Galaxy S20. However, an earlier report suggested that the Galaxy S21 will have the same 4,000mAh battery capacity as its predecessor.
Software & Hardware
This suggests that Samsung may use some software-based improvements to enhance battery life on the new model. Fhe improvement could also chiefly be in place due to the improved power efficiency of the new chipsets.
Qualcomm underlined Snapdragon 888 SoC’s superior power efficiency while launching it last month. The Adreno 660 GPU, which is an integrated part of the Snapdragon 888, is also touted to deliver 20 percent better power efficiency compared to the previous generation GPU. We are, however, yet to see what Samsung has to say for its Exynos 2100 SoC that is yet to debut in the market.
Some recent reports suggested that the regular Samsung Galaxy S21 — alongside the Galaxy S21+ and Galaxy S21 Ultra — will come without an in-box charger. The upcoming flagship phone is also tipped to support fast charging.
Galaxy S21 series is said to be launched on January 14, so we can expect some more rumours and leaks surfacing online in the run-up to the launch.
