The tone comes from the Samsung Galaxy A5 (2017), a mid-range Android smartphone released in 2017 as part of the Galaxy A series. Like other Samsung phones of the era, it used short system alerts for everyday warnings, with this one tied specifically to a low battery state. As phone system sounds were ripped and shared on soundboards and in editing packs, the clip outlived the handset itself. Editors now reuse this Samsung low battery sound effect far beyond the original phone, as a universal cue for any device, character, or person running out of energy.
About this sound
The short low battery alert chime from the Samsung Galaxy A5 (2017), played when the phone needs charging. Creators use it for phone and tech jokes.
This is the brief low battery notification tone from the Samsung Galaxy A5 (2017), lasting just over half a second. It is a clean, electronic alert that instantly signals a phone is about to die. Because it is so short and recognisable, the sound works as instant shorthand for running out of power, without needing any explanation on screen. Viewers hear it and immediately understand the joke or the problem, which makes the moment feel urgent, relatable, and slightly panicked, especially for anyone who has watched their battery drain.
