Murata kan bli batteri-leverantör till Galaxy S8
Nikkei rapporterar att Samsung för närvarande för diskussioner med japanska Murata om att leverera batterier till den koreanska elektronikjättens kommande flaggskeppstelefon Galaxy S8. Murata aviserade i somras att man kommer att köpa Sonys batteridivision, en affär som beräknas vara helt klar i april i år. Enligt uppgifter ska Samsung sedan tidigare ha varit mycket imponerade av både kapaciteten och tillförlitligheten hos Sonys litiumjon-batterier.
Den indragna telefonmodellen Note 7 hade batterier som levererades av Samsungs eget dotterbolag Samsung SDI samt kinesiska ATL.
