According to recent speculations, the Korean giant would use low-cost ATL batteries to cut the price of next iterations of foldable phones.
More facts concerning the next generation of Samsung foldable phones, including the Galaxy Z Fold 4 and Z Flip 4, have been leaked.
The battery utilized in these versions has been explained by recent leaks, as the leaks released by "The ELEC" stated that Samsung will rely on the Chinese manufacturer ATL to supply batteries for the two phones.
Apple is one of ATL's clients, and the business is one of the world's market leaders in lithium-ion batteries.
The source also reveals Samsung's plans to employ ATL batteries in forthcoming foldable phone models in order to reduce costs, as the batteries only account for 4 to 5% of the entire cost of smartphone manufacture.
The cost of making a single battery ranges from $4 to $6, depending on the battery capacity and design parameters, hence battery manufacture has a significant impact on the phone's ultimate price.
