The smartphone is speculated to have a similar 6.9-inch display as its predecessor, with a third-generation anti-reflective coating over the display for an enhanced viewing experience. The Galaxy S26 Ultra could be backed by an overclocked Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Elite 2 for Galaxy custom chipset.
Additionally, it comes in three storage options: 256GB, 512GB, and 1TB, paired with 16GB of RAM. In terms of battery, the Galaxy S26 Ultra could get a 5,000mAh battery with faster charging support.
In terms of camera, the device could feature a 200MP Sony lens alongside two 50MP sensors (one periscope and one ultra-wide), as well as a 12MP telephoto shooter on the rear panel.
If Samsung follows its usual schedule, the Galaxy S26 Ultra could debut in January 2026, alongside the Galaxy S26 and Galaxy S26 Edge.
