3,900mAh — the family's weakest point. Real-world ~5-6 hours of SOT typical (worsened by One UI 6/7), and only 25W charging means ~1h12m to full. The compact form factor's main cost.

Same 4,900 mAh cell as the S24+, same 45W wired and 15W wireless charging caps. The more efficient Snapdragon 8 Elite for Galaxy pushes real-world endurance comfortably to a full day with 25-40% remaining. Real charge time is ~75 minutes wall-to-100% on a 65W charger. The Qi2 Ready implementation without built-in magnets is the consistent frustration, and reviewers note that OnePlus 13's silicon-carbon battery and ~40-minute full charge time make Samsung look complacent here.
