According to information obtained by Galaxy Club, the standard Galaxy Note 10 will arrive equipped with a small 3,400mAh battery, representing a decrease of 600mAh over last year’s Galaxy Note 9. Previously, the presence of a 4,300mAh battery was reported, but this now appears to be exclusive to the 5G variant, a device that should be considerably thicker.

The aforementioned offerings both include 4,000mAh batteries, but due to the Galaxy Note 10’s reported size, a battery this big is virtually impossible. Nevertheless, the smartphone is still expected to be a little bigger than the standard Galaxy S10 which includes a 3,400mAh battery, meaning that a capacity in the region of 3,700mAh could certainly be achieved. However, this isn’t the complete picture.

Smaller batteries are often seen as a negative thing, especially when they represent a decrease over the previous capacity. But in this particular case, the move could be good news for Galaxy Note fans on a tighter budget.
In addition to this, the Pro variant is expected to include a huge 4,500mAh battery, the same size battery found inside the Galaxy S10 5G. Naturally, the Galaxy Note 10 Pro will feature Samsung’s S Pen, meaning that a 4,500mAh battery would be impossible. But as recent leaks have shown us, the Galaxy Note 10 Pro will adopt a repositioned rear camera module, something that creates more room for a battery.

In turn, all of this suggests that the Galaxy Note 10 Pro will be a direct successor to last year’s Galaxy Note 9 and will be priced accordingly. The standard Galaxy Note 10, on the other hand, will presumably cost less and act more like a Galaxy Note 10e, making it a more attractive purchase to those on a slightly tighter budget or people who aren’t fans of massive smartphones.
