This feature is called Battery Share. It works simply. Users place two compatible Samsung phones back-to-back. The phone with more battery activates sharing automatically. Power transfers from the full phone to the low phone. Both phones show the charging status on their screens.
Samsung says Battery Share is very useful. It helps when someone’s phone battery is almost dead. Friends or family can give them a quick boost. This avoids the need to find an outlet or carry a charger. It offers convenience anytime, anywhere.
The update is rolling out now. It will reach many Galaxy phones over the next weeks. The Battery Share feature requires specific Samsung models. Both phones need to support Qi2 wireless charging. The Galaxy S23 series, Galaxy S24 series, and certain Fold and Flip models are compatible. Older phones might not get this feature.
