User Modified Samsung Galaxy A32 5G Smartphone With Massive 30,000mAh Battery: Report

Technology

The Samsung Galaxy A32 5G smartphone was launched by the South Korean conglomerate in January 2021, as the most affordable smartphone offered by the company at that time. The budget-friendly A-series smartphone has been launched by Samsung that features a 5,000mAh battery with 15W fast charging support. However, a user has reportedly modified the standard Samsung Galaxy A32 5G with a massive physical battery that has six times more power reserve capacity than the original battery that shipped with the smartphone.

According to a report by 9to5Google, Reddit user going by the handle u/Downtown_Cranberry44 claims to have modified the Samsung Galaxy A32 5G smartphone from 2021 with a 30,000mAh battery, replacing the original 5,000mAh battery that shipped with the smartphone. With the modified battery, the aforementioned user smartphone has six times more battery capacity than the original phone.

The original 5,000mAh battery on the Samsung Galaxy A52 5G itself is claimed to provide a full day of use on a 100 percent charge, and now with a 30,000mAh battery, the smartphone can last for about a week or two on a single charge. a report.

The user reportedly achieved this feat by using Samsung 50e battery cells, which would have cost the user around $5 (roughly Rs. 400) each. The weight of the modified phone has also increased significantly due to the additional 50e batteries that have been used to reach the 30,000mAh battery capacity, which clearly appears as a very huge plus on the back of the modified Samsung Galaxy A32 5G smartphone. a report.

Reportedly, the model also includes two output ports USB Type-A, USB Type-C, microUSB, and Lightning ports that essentially turn extra batteries into a charging station or power bank for charging a host of other devices.

However, the report adds that it is important to note that the method used by a Reddit user is not completely safe, as it may be highly susceptible to damage and fire hazards related to the battery. Therefore, users should refrain from such activities that could endanger their safety and the safety of others.


The Samsung Galaxy S23 series of phones was launched earlier this week, and the South Korean company’s high-end phones have seen some improvements in all three models. What about the price increase?
