In consultation with manufacturers, Qualcomm is said to be pushing the next-generation flagship smartphones for further battery improvements. But not in the form of new software, but rather new batteries that offer higher energy density. We’re talking 5,500 mAh and more.
There are now some top models that can boast of batteries of this magnitude. For example, the Honor Magic 6 Pro has 5,600 mAh. For the new Snapdragon 8 Gen 4, according to Insider “Digital Chat Station,” Qualcomm needs a 5,500 mAh battery or more for larger flagship smartphones. Related developments can already be seen behind the scenes.
Of course, this may not work for every Android smartphone. This would be absolutely impractical with a Xiaomi 15, as the device is too small for that. However, bigger brothers with displays over 6.7″ can also offer enough space. In the current Xiaomi 14 Ultra, the battery is actually quite small at 5,300 mAh (in China), just 5,000 mAh in our case. There is still room for improvement.
There is certainly a good reason for the high power demand. On the one hand, the performance requirements of complex games are increasing. But above all, the emergence of AI functions in smartphone hardware is always very demanding. As AI is increasingly expected to be computed from the device and not from the cloud, this is certainly a point.
