Leaked Images Reveal Details Ahead of Official Announcement
While Samsung is not expected to launch the Galaxy S26 series until early 2026, focusing instead on its rumored first triple-folding smartphone, the Galaxy Z Trifold, leaks about the S26 have already surfaced.
Previously, SmartPrix shared renders of the Galaxy S26 Edge, S26 Pro, and S26 Ultra based on prototype images. Now, Android Headlines and OnLeaks have released higher-quality renders and a 360-degree video, offering a clearer look at the flagship model’s design.
Design and Size Updates
The most noticeable change is the redesigned rear camera module on the Galaxy S26 Ultra, which now features a unified frame similar to the Galaxy Z Fold7, unlike the separated design on the S25 Ultra. In terms of dimensions, the device measures 163.4 mm in height (slightly taller than the S25 Ultra’s 162.8 mm), 77.9 mm in width (a 0.2 mm increase), and is thinner at 7.8–7.9 mm compared to the previous 8.2 mm. The main camera bump remains around 4.5 mm thick, consistent with the Galaxy Z Fold7.
Expected Launch Timeline
Following Samsung’s annual release cycle, the Galaxy S26 Ultra is likely to debut in early 2026, succeeding the Galaxy S25 Ultra as the flagship model in the new Galaxy S series.
