Samsung’s latest flagships, the Galaxy S10 and Galaxy Note 10 lines, feature the best displays, camera setups, and other features that any Samsung-branded has at the moment. But despite the topnotch features, these smartphones seem to lack in one aspect: battery life.

The Galaxy S10+ features a 4,100 mAh battery that allows users to surf the web for about 12 hours and 35 minutes, Tom’s Guide noted. The battery on the Galaxy S10+ outlasted every other smartphone that was released before it, the tech site reported.

The Galaxy Note 10+, on the other hand, has a 4,300 mAh battery that can last an average of 11 hours and 9 minutes of continuous internet surfing. It doesn’t last as long as the Galaxy S10+, but it still lasts longer than competitors like the iPhone XS Max, OnePlus 7 Pro and Google Pixel 3XL.

Just when it seemed that all Samsung could do was to put small batteries in its best smartphones, a new surprise comes along. Samsung’s India division has announced a new smartphone that has a whopping 6,000 mAh battery stuffed inside a chassis that measures 8.9mm thick and weighs a mere 188 grams.

Samsung revealed that the new Galaxy M30s, set for release in India on Sept. 29, has a battery life estimated to last longer than the batteries on the Galaxy S10+ and Note 10+. The M30s is expected to provide users with up to 29 hours of continuous video playback, 49 hours of voice calls, and more than 131 hours of music playback.

The new M30s is powered by an Exynos 9611 octa-core processor that can clock up to 2.3GHz. This is a new chipset built on a 10nm architecture, and is designed for power and efficiency. This is backed by 4GB or 8GB of RAM, and 64GB or 128GB of storage, expandable via microSD.

The new smartphone features a 6.4-inch sAMOLED Infinity-U display, which means it has a U-shaped notch on top for a 16MP selfie camera. At the back is a triple-camera setup which includes a 48MP main camera, a 5MP depth camera, and an 8MP ultra wide camera. All three cameras are capable of shooting live portraits, can take photos in dim lighting conditions, and can capture 4K video.

The Samsung Galaxy M30s is priced at INR 13.999 (about $200) for the 4GB+64GB model and INR 16.999 (about $240) for the 6GB+128GB model.
