New leak confirms Samsung Galaxy Note 9 will have a massive battery

People have been asking for larger batteries in the Note series for quite a while, but Samsung was more concerned about design than the performance of its smartphones. It appears that this year things have changed and for whatever reason Samsung is finally including a much larger battery inside its upcoming Note 9 phablet.

Some of you might recall the rumor emerged last month that predicted Samsung Galaxy Note 9 will be powered by a 4,000 mAh battery. Well, it looks like that rumor was accurate since a certification document that lists the Galaxy Note 9's battery.

According to documents filed at ANATEL, the National Telecommunications Agency in Brazil, the Note 9 will indeed be equipped with a massive 4,000 mAh battery inside, a more than welcome upgrade over the Note 8's 3,300 mAh battery.

However, the upgrade may not be as high as one would expect since the Note 9's Bluetooth-enabled S Pen might take away some of the juice. Disabling the Bluetooth might improve battery efficiency though, so that's probably what many Note 9 users will do in the end.
