Galaxy A38 5G is rumored to increase the battery to 6,000mAh, while Galaxy A58 5G is rumored to have 45W charging certification, but the price of the new generation may continue to increase.

Galaxy A38 5G can have its battery upgraded to 6,000mAh

Samsung is said to be preparing to launch the Galaxy A38 5G and Galaxy A58 5G, two mid-range phones that will succeed the current Galaxy A series. The latest information reveals an upgrade in battery capacity on the Galaxy A38 5G, while the Galaxy A58 5G continues to support higher charging capacity than the standard Galaxy S26.

The new Galaxy A37 5G will hit shelves in April 2026, so the arrival of the successor version may still be a few months away. However, leaked information about the Galaxy A38 5G has started appearing since October, mainly revolving around the camera system and more recently the battery.

According to information from GalaxyClub, Galaxy A38 5G is expected to use a battery with a rated capacity of 5,882mAh. This number will likely correspond to the typical capacity of 6,000mAh when Samsung announces the product.

Compared to the 5,000mAh battery of the Galaxy A37 5G, the expected capacity on the new generation increases by 20%. This may be a notable change for users who prioritize usage time, although the actual improvement depends on the processor, screen and software optimization capabilities.

If Samsung simultaneously replaces the Exynos 1480 with a new, more power-efficient chip, the Galaxy A38 5G can extend its usage time compared to the previous generation. However, information about the device's processor has not yet been confirmed.

Galaxy A58 5G revealed 45W charging, higher than Galaxy S26

While the Galaxy A38 5G was notable for its battery information, the Galaxy A58 5G appeared in a certification list discovered by ZionsAnvin account. Data shows that the device supports charging via USB-C port with a maximum capacity of 45W.

This capacity level is equivalent to the Galaxy A57 5G, so there is no need to upgrade compared to the previous generation. However, the 45W figure is still higher than the 25W of the standard Galaxy S26, even though the Galaxy S series is in the more expensive segment.

It is necessary to distinguish the maximum charging capacity from the time it takes to fully charge the battery, because the actual speed depends on the battery capacity and how the device adjusts the capacity during charging. The available information also does not indicate the battery capacity of the Galaxy A58 5G or the charging capacity of the Galaxy A38 5G.

Camera may stay the same, price continues to increase

Regarding photography capabilities, rumors appeared in October that the Galaxy A38 5G will retain the rear camera system of the Galaxy A37 5G. The camera cluster is expected to include a 50MP main camera, a 12MP super wide-angle camera and a 5MP macro camera.

If this information is correct, the battery will be one of the more notable changes on the Galaxy A38 5G, instead of the camera parameters. There is currently not enough data to determine whether Samsung will adjust the sensor or add new image processing features.

Galaxy A38 5G and Galaxy A58 5G are expected to launch in March or April 2027. GalaxyClub also believes that Samsung may continue to increase prices, causing the lowest Galaxy A38 5G version to have a listed price exceeding 500 USD (equivalent to more than 13.2 million VND).

This is still a prediction, not the price announced by Samsung or the selling price for the Vietnamese market. If prices really increase, battery upgrades will need to be considered along with other changes to evaluate the competitiveness of the new Galaxy A generation.
