Galaxy Buds Core will outdo the Buds FE in at least one key way
Ryan Haines / Android Authority TL;DR The Galaxy Buds Core were recently spotted in the Nemko certification database. The listing reveals the successor to the Galaxy Buds FE will get a battery upgrade. The earbuds are rated for 200mAh, and the case for 500mAh. Samsung's most affordable earbuds — the Galaxy Buds FE — are getting a successor. Based on an FCC filing spotted last month, we know that these earbuds won't be called the FE 2, but instead will be branded as the Galaxy Buds Core. These earbuds have now been spotted on another certification website, which reveals what we can expect for battery capacity. When the Galaxy Buds FE launched, the carry case came with a 479mAh battery, while each earbud contained a 60mAh battery. This provides about four to six hours of playback time on a single charge. According to a listing (spotted by 91Mobiles) on the Nemko platform, a Norwegian private firm that assists in testing the safety of electrical equipment, the buds that will replace the FE should have a much better battery life. This listing states that the Galaxy Buds Core has a 200mAh rating for the earbuds, likely meaning 100mAh per earbud. As for the carrying case, it's getting upgraded to a 500mAh battery. What makes this interesting is how this compares to the Galaxy Buds 3 Pro. For comparison, the Buds 3 Pro features a 48mAh battery for each earbud and a 515mAh battery for the carrying case. There's no date for when the Galaxy Buds Core will launch, but these certification database spottings suggest a launch is coming up soon. Previous reports claim that these earbuds may initially only launch in select regions, including Brazil, Indonesia, Israel, India, Mexico, Malaysia, Philippines, Thailand, Turkiye, Egypt, and Russia.

Galaxy Z Flip 7 Battery and Charging: All expected changes
The Galaxy Z Flip 7 , expected to debut this summer, might not look wildly different from its predecessor, but there are signs that Samsung is working to improve the user experience — and that includes battery life and charging. Leaks suggest a larger battery is on the way, and that could make this stylish foldable a much more dependable daily companion. Similarly to its predecessor, the Galaxy Z Flip 7 may get a battery capacity bump. According to credible leaks, Samsung is planning to increase the battery size from 4,000 mAh (Flip 6) to 4,300 mAh for the Flip 7 . Flip 7 Receive the latest Samsung news Subscribe By subscribing you agree to our terms and conditions and privacy policy Will the Galaxy Z Flip 7 series have better battery life? Z Flip 7 . Samsung increased the battery capacity with the Z Flip 6 by 300 mAh, and it seems another such increase is on its way with the Admittedly. 4,300 mAh is still a bit behind the 4,700 mAh on the Motorola Razr Ultra (2025) , but this upgrade would give Samsung's Flip series a much-needed boost. Galaxy Z Flip 7 series rumored charging upgrades 25W wired charging, same as the Flip 6. 15W wireless charging with standard Qi support. That's still decent, but it's falling behind the 68W wired charging of the Razr Ultra (2025). There are no reliable leaks suggesting faster charging, so we expect things to remain unchanged:That's still decent, but it's falling behind the 68W wired charging of the Razr Ultra (2025). How fast will the Galaxy Z Flip 7 series charge? If Samsung keeps the 25W cap, we expect it to charge to around 50% in 30-40 minutes, and 100% in a little over 90 minutes. Will the Galaxy Z Flip 7 series have wireless charging? Yes, the Galaxy Z Flip 7 will have wireless charging. Expect the same 15W wireless charging as on the Flip 6. Samsung uses the Qi standard, so you don't need a proprietary charger — any decent Qi-certified pad will do. We don't expect to see any magnetic alignment with the Z Flip 7 . Will the Galaxy Z Flip 7 series have reverse wireless charging? Yes, reverse wireless charging is expected again. It's a feature Samsung has supported for years — you'll likely be able to charge buds, watches, or even other phones at up to 4.5W. As always, it's more of a convenience than a primary charging method. No word on whether the speed or efficiency of reverse charging will be improved in the Flip 7 . What charger will the Galaxy Z Flip 7 series use? The Galaxy Z Flip 7 will use USB-C with USB Power Delivery + PPS, just like other Samsung flagships. That means you don't need to use Samsung's charger to get near-maximum speeds. Any high-quality third-party USB PD/PPS charger (like those from Anker, Ugreen, or Baseus) will deliver solid results. As usual, no charger will be included in the box, though, so you will have to get a 25W (or better) separately if you don't already have one. With a larger 4,300 mAh battery and the more efficient Snapdragon 8 Elite processor, thecould surpass these numbers, potentially hitting 7 hours in our battery score.
