Samsung is gearing up to launch its next-generation Galaxy S-series flagship smartphones in a few months and with the phone’s official launch nearing, more details about the upcoming devices keep surfacing online.

In the latest development, it is reported that Samsung will be procuring Galaxy S22 series batteries from two companies — Samsung ADI and China’s Amperex Technology Limited and both of them will be used in the initial production batch.

It’s noteworthy that Samsung cut ties with Amperex Technology Limited (ATL) in 2017 when its batteries were causing extreme heat for the Galaxy Note7 smartphone, which resulted in the phone firing up.

Samsung started dealing with ATL for the batteries of the Galaxy S21 series that got launched earlier this year. Prior to that, the South Korean firm limited the usage of ATL batteries to only mid-range smartphones in the Galaxy A- and Galaxy M-series.

Apart from smartphones, the batteries manufactured by China’s Amperex Technology Limited are also used in the Galaxy Watch as well as Galaxy Buds.

As per the report, the Chinese company will be providing a 3,800mAh battery for the standard Galaxy S22 smartphone along with 4,500mAh and 5,000mAh batteries for the Galaxy S22 Plus and Galaxy S22 Ultra smartphones, respectively.

Recently, the Samsung Galaxy S22 battery with the number EB-BS901ABY (14.35Wh) was spotted during a certification process in Korea. It revealed that the South Korean giant is decreasing the battery capacity on the upcoming S-series models but with the advancement of technology and better optimization, the battery life is expected to remain the same as of current models, if not increased.

If the reports are to be believed, then Samsung is initially planning to manufacture around 20 million units for the entire Galaxy S22 lineup. However, the numbers could increase once the mass production begins or the devices get launched as the company usually produces 25-30 million units in the initial batches.
