Samsung Galaxy S6 and S6 edge just have average battery life according to many users. And for this year’s flagship devices, Samsung has shifted to non-removable batteries. Today is the day when launch of both Galaxy Note 5 and Galaxy S6 edge+ is expected at an Unpacked event. People are really anxious to know that how big batteries Samsung will use for both of its highly anticipated devices.
It has been revealed earlier that Samsung is going to use a 3,000 mAh battery for Galaxy S6 edge+. But now serial twitter leaker evleaks has also confirmed the news ahead of today’s official announcement. See the tweet below.

Not only evleaks but another person Tom Finn, who actually has his hands on to both devices at work, also confirmed the news. He posted following tweet in response to Evan Blass tweet.

According to the above tweet, not only Galaxy S6 edge+ but the Note 5 will also have a 3,000 mAh battery. It could be a bad news for Galaxy Note fans as Note 4 currently has 3220 mAh battery while the Note 5 battery size is going to be smaller than its predecessor.
But Note fans should keep in mind that the Note 5 (and also the S6 edge+) will have a more power-efficient processors. And the presence of Android 5.1 Lollipop in both upcoming devices will also be a plus point as the devices running on this latest OS considerably show better endurance than the earlier devices. It could be another factor that Samsung is using smaller battery inside.
Tom Finn, who has used both Galaxy Note 5 and Galaxy S6 edge+ at work, has also posted two more tweets about the specification of devices. See the tweets below.
Octacore exynos. Not sure on the specifics. 4gb ram. 32/64/128gb internal. No removable battery. No expandable storage. At least for the u.s
