LineageOS 18.1 – Only for Exynos variants

LineageOS 18.1 support is now available for the Galaxy Note 10 and Galaxy S10 line handset, but there’s bad news as well that is the US and Chinese variants (Snapdragon processor versions) won’t be able to run this custom OS. It means, if your device is equipped with an Exynos processor under the hood, you can grab this opportunity to taste Google Pixel-like experience on your Galaxy Note 10 or S10.

Furthermore, it’s not possible to download the LineageOS 18.1 for every Galaxy Note 10 or Galaxy S10 device as it’s currently available for just Galaxy Note 10 (d1). It’s expected that other models users will be able to get it from next week.

Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra to skip stacked battery, 65W charging

Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra

Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra may not feature a stacked battery and 65W charging. Last April, it was reported that the company is developing advanced battery tech inspired by EVs for its mobile portfolio. However, the plan to bring it to Galaxy reportedly pushed to Galaxy S26 Ultra.

According to a rumor, Samsung canceled bringing stacked battery tech and 65W charging to Galaxy S25 Ultra. Now, it is planned for Galaxy S26 Ultra, which will arrive in 2026. The next Ultra flagship would continue 5000mAh conventional battery and 45W charging support.

Stacked battery tech would mean offering a higher energy density with a different arrangement of the cells. It will unlock even longer battery life for the Galaxy flagships. Meanwhile, Samsung fans won’t see advanced batteries in the flagship arriving next year.

The tipster mentioned that Samsung is skipping the new battery and faster charging in the S25 Ultra to reduce the cost. We’ve seen Chinese manufacturers bringing over 5000mAh battery to their recent flagships, however, Samsung still offers longer battery life.

As Snapdragon going more expensive this year, the South Korean tech giant considering expanding its Exynos to more Galaxies. The Galaxy S25 Ultra may use Snapdragon internationally could also be the reason behind the delay in stacked battery tech.
