The Samsung Galaxy S26 series is expected to launch on February 25th with significant upgrades including the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 chip, 60W fast charging on the Ultra version, and a 4,300mAh battery for the standard version.
A massive data leak has just revealed the full specifications and pricing of the Samsung Galaxy S26 series. According to the latest information, Samsung's 2026 flagship generation will focus heavily on optimizing artificial intelligence (AI) and improving hardware performance across all three versions: standard, Plus, and Ultra.
Processor differentiation and the advantages of the Ultra version.
Regarding processor configuration, Samsung continues its strategy of separating chips by market and version. In Europe, the Galaxy S26 and S26 Plus are expected to integrate the new Exynos 2600 chip with 10 processing cores. Meanwhile, the highest-end variant, the Galaxy S26 Ultra, will exclusively be equipped with a specially overclocked version of the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 chip, promising superior performance for demanding tasks and complex AI processing.
Upgraded battery capacity and faster charging speed.
One of the most notable improvements lies in the power system. The standard Galaxy S26 boasts a 300mAh battery capacity, reaching 4,300mAh, extending usage time for users who prefer compact phones. For the Ultra version, while maintaining the 5,000mAh battery capacity, the wired fast charging power has been upgraded to 60W, significantly reducing charging time compared to its predecessor.
The 200MP camera system leads the market.
The Galaxy S26 Ultra continues to maintain its position as a top-tier photography device with a main sensor of up to 200MP. The new features include a synchronized upgrade to the secondary lenses, including a 50MP periscope camera supporting 5x optical zoom and a 50MP ultra-wide-angle camera with autofocus.
