Samsungs upcoming Galaxy foldable device appears to be inching nearer to its release date. The latest news comes from China, where the alleged Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3 received its 3C certification. The certification details that the upcoming ZFold device will have a dual-battery system, totaling 4,275 mAh of battery capacity.
This battery system consists of two individual battery cells (2,215 mAh + 2,060 mAh). The dual cell system distributes the batteries weight across both halves of the foldable phone. Looking at these numbers, the Z Fold3s battery capacity is lower than the Z Fold2s 4,500 mAh total capacity. The reason for the tighter capacity is speculated to be due to the new devices more compact form factor.
