Galaxy S26 Ultra: Are you one of those who eagerly wait for every new Samsung flagship? So sir, the latest news coming about the Galaxy S26 Ultra will make you a little excited… and a little worried too.
So far Samsung has not made any official announcement about the S26 Ultra, but there is no dearth of rumors in the world of technology. Leakers and tech blogs on social media have already started discussing the pros and cons of this phone. Let’s know about all the rumors and possibilities that are floating around about this phone.
1️⃣ Same old battery game again and again
If Samsung comes with a 5,000mAh battery again, it will be really disappointing. Think about it, the last 6 flagship models have also had the same battery – no change. Other companies like OnePlus, Xiaomi have gone above 6,000mAh. If Samsung stays where it is, then questions will definitely arise.
2️⃣ Will we get a small upgrade?
Some reports say that the battery can be increased to 5,400mAh. But will this 400mAh increase be enough? Probably not. Especially when companies like OnePlus are offering batteries above 6,000mAh in their new models.
3️⃣ Removal of S Pen – wisdom or mistake?
The biggest discussion is that S Pen can be removed from S26 Ultra. If this happens, it will not only hurt Samsung’s brand value, but will also be a big setback for the users. S Pen has become the identity of Samsung flagship in a way.
4️⃣ Question on charging speed
50W charging speed… sounds good, but when other brands have reached 100W, then this feature seems outdated. Samsung will have to improve the charging technology.
5️⃣ Big gift from Snapdragon
The good news is that the S26 Ultra is likely to come with Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 2 processor. This will give Samsung a chance to compete with devices like iPhone 17 Pro Max.
6️⃣ Why not Snapdragon in the entire series?
Now the question arises that why would Samsung keep Exynos in the rest of the S26 models? Why not make the entire series on Snapdragon? Well, the presence of Snapdragon in the Ultra model is also a matter of relief.
7️⃣ Under Display Camera will not come — and that’s good!
Samsung will not bring Under Display Camera technology in S26 Ultra for now. This is a good decision because this technology is not yet perfect and can spoil the camera quality.
8️⃣ Minor changes in design
There may be slight changes in the design of the phone — a little thinner, a little lighter. But the question remains the same — are these changes worth losing the S Pen?
9️⃣ Will it repeat the mistake of the Note series?
Samsung has already ended the Galaxy Note series and the same mistake can be repeated again by removing the S Pen. Users have still not forgotten that decision.
🔟 When will it be launched?
The Galaxy S26 Ultra could launch in or around early 2025. There is no official date yet, but rumors suggest a wait of 7-8 months.
