About this replacement
Samsung Galaxy Tab E SM-T567 — 3.8V Li-Polymer Replacement Battery (EB-BT567ABA)
This is the 3.8V, 6000mAh Li-Polymer replacement battery for the Samsung Galaxy Tab E 9.6-inch tablet. It fits SM-T567, SM-T567V, SM-T560NU, and the Galaxy Tab E 9.6 XLTE. OEM part number EB-BT567ABA, also cross-referenced as GH43-04535A.
- SM-T567 and SM-T560NU compatibility: These models share the same battery bay geometry, connector pinout, and 3.8V charge regulation circuit. The BMS on each unit uses the same communication protocol, so the fuel gauge IC reads cell state correctly across both variants without any hardware modification.
- Bench tested on actual hardware: We cycled this cell through charge and discharge on the SM-T567V platform. The BMS accepted the new cell on the first charge cycle, reported cell voltage accurately at full charge (4.35V), and triggered low-voltage cutoff cleanly without false shutdowns.
- Fuel gauge recalibration after swap: After installing this battery, run one full discharge to automatic shutoff, then charge uninterrupted to 100% without using the tablet. This resets the fuel gauge IC calibration to the new cell and eliminates the inaccurate percentage readings that commonly appear after a battery replacement.
Galaxy Tab E shutting down at 15–25% battery remaining
When the display brightness is high and Wi-Fi is active simultaneously, the combined current draw creates a voltage sag that pulls the cell below the BMS cutoff threshold before the percentage gauge reaches zero. The fuel gauge IC was calibrated to the old, degraded cell — so its voltage-to-percentage curve no longer maps correctly to a fresh cell. Run one full discharge cycle to automatic shutoff, then a full uninterrupted charge. After that cycle, the gauge recalibrates and unexpected shutdowns at 15–25% typically stop.
Fast charging not available on the Tab E after battery replacement
Fast charge on the Galaxy Tab E uses Samsung's Adaptive Fast Charging protocol, which requires the charge IC to complete at least one full accepted charge cycle on the new cell before it negotiates higher current delivery. If fast charge is not offered immediately after the swap, this is expected behaviour — not a fault with the battery or the charger. Plug in using the original Samsung charger and cable, let the first charge run to 100% without interruption, and fast charge will be available from the next session onward.
