Certified Listing Confirms Galaxy S26 Edge Sticks With Lithium‑Ion Battery and Gains 4,200mAh Capacity

Official records in China identify a 4,078mAh rated cell for Samsung’s ultra‑thin model, confirming a modest bump over the S25 Edge.

Overview

  • China’s 3C certification lists Samsung battery part EB-BS947ABY with a rated 4,078mAh capacity, expected to be marketed as 4,200mAh.
  • The filing specifies lithium‑ion chemistry, dispelling near‑term expectations of silicon‑carbon cells for the S26 Edge.
  • Ice Universe shared the certification screenshot, which was subsequently reported by SamMobile, TechRadar, and Android Headlines.
  • The larger nominal capacity should improve runtime versus the S25 Edge’s 3,900mAh spec, though analysts say it will still trail the biggest‑battery flagships.
  • Industry reports suggest the Edge could replace the Plus tier in the 2026 lineup, with the S26 series widely expected to be unveiled around January.
