Samsung Galaxy A37

Samsung has stuck to a maximum battery capacity of 5,000mAh for its mid-range and high-end phones for years. However, things will begin to change next year, starting with the Galaxy S27 Pro and the Galaxy S27 Ultra. A new leak reveals that the Galaxy A38 will also receive a battery upgrade.

Galaxy A38 battery capacity

According to GalaxyClub, the Galaxy A38 features a battery with a rated capacity of 5,882mAh, which Samsung will likely market as 6,000mAh. This marks a 20% capacity increase over the Galaxy A37. As a result, the Galaxy A38 will become the first mid-range Galaxy A series phone equipped with a 6,000mAh battery.

Because the Galaxy A37 already supports 45W fast wired charging, the Galaxy A38 is expected to retain the same charging speed.

A previous report revealed that the Galaxy A38 will retain the Galaxy A37's camera setup. This means it will feature a 50MP primary camera, an 8MP ultrawide lens, a 5MP macro sensor, and a 12MP front-facing camera.
