At this point, it’s probably fair to say that battery tech for mobile devices have stagnated for quite awhile. Another field that the mobile industry could borrow from is from EVs, specifically its stacked battery tech. And according to one leaker, that’s exactly what Apple and Samsung will be doing for their upcoming phones.
The leakster goes by RGcloudS on Twitter, who has claimed that the fruit company will be using stacked battery tech for its entire iPhone 15 lineup, which is expected to be unveiled in a couple of months’ time. The South Korean tech giant, on the other hand, is only expected to do so for the larger models of its upcoming Samsung Galaxy S24 family. While we can probably expect the debut of the series in February, only the Plus and Ultra models will sport stacked battery tech, or so claims the leakster.

Stacked battery is on track, but limitedMost likely only for 24U & 24+
or just 24Umeanwhile,
apple used it on entire iP15 lineup24U & 24+ have "rated" 5000 MaH
But 24U stacked structure is different
to make it cooler, they applied cooling gel. for 65W & stability https://t.co/8khM2oAToc— RGcloudS (@RGcloudS) July 12, 2023
But what is it about stacked batteries that make it such a big deal compared to conventional battery design for mobile devices? In general, stacked batteries allow for denser batteries, meaning equal capacity for less volume. Though it’s not all sunshine and rainbows, as the tradeoff for this improved space efficiency is poorer heat dissipation, leading to hotter devices. Which is less than ideal, to say the least, and explains why the mobile industry has not completely shifted to using stacked battery tech.
But back to the leakster’s claims, they’ve also shared pretty specific info on the stacked battery tech for the Samsung Galaxy S24 Plus and Ultra, in that they will be rated at 5,000mAh. They also claim that the latter specifically will have a different stacking structure, will have cooling gel to help with heat dissipation, and support 65W charging.
