Yup i found this as well

Brace yourselves for a major Galaxy S26 Ultra battery disappointment... and a possible silver lining

If you were hoping the Galaxy S26 Ultra would boost its predecessor's battery size, we have bad news for you today... and good news for Galaxy S25 Edge admirers.

That's fine with me. I'd rather have safety. I've never had issues with my S24 Ultra battery life even though I'm a heavy user with around 5 hours screen on time every day.

I charge to 100% and take it off the charger once the battery is fully charged.

 

[bearone2]

i charge to 100%!!

 

[mustang7757]

I charge it to 95%

 

[Trail Boss]

I charge to 100%. However, I trade in my phone for a new model every year.

Yup doesn't apply to us who trade-in every year

I'd rather PhoneBloks or Aura be revived which won't happen.

Or know where phones truly go to die before jumping on the annual trend.

That being said, the annual upgrade cycle is exactly why Samsung is stagnating features, they know they don't need to do anything to sell their next device except increase the leading digit.

I never heard of those, but I remember the LG G5.

Above should read Project Ara.

Very much like Framework laptops how you can swap the modules. Could and would have been revolutionary.

The G5 and Moto-something tried doing that to a lesser extent and success. If the G5 had some sort of super capacitor or could have gone into a hibernate state while swapping batteries it could have been really neat.
