Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra Design and Display To Expect

The Galaxy S26 Ultra is expected to bring subtle design updates rather than a complete overhaul. The phone could be slightly thinner, around 7-8mm, and it may feature more rounded corners. Leaks also hint at a possible under-screen camera, replacing the hole-punch design, though this is yet to be confirmed. Moreover, the phone is likely to feature a 6.9-inch Dynamic AMOLED panel. There are also rumours about a privacy-oriented “Flex Magic” or “Private Display” feature, which can limit visibility from side angles.

Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra Cameras, Chipset, Battery (Expected)

Samsung is expected to retain the 200MP main sensor for the rear camera, paired with a 50MP 5x telephoto and a 50MP ultrawide lens. The S26 Ultra might also bring variable aperture control, something Samsung last offered with the Galaxy S10.

Under the hood, the S26 Ultra could be powered by the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 globally, while select regions may get the Exynos 2600. RAM could reach up to 16GB with storage options up to 1TB. The battery is expected to remain at 5,000mAh but with faster 60W wired charging and 15W wireless support. Android 16-based One UI 8.5 could run out of the box.

Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra Expected Price

Pricing may remain in the same range as the S25 Ultra, starting around $1,299 for the base model, with higher storage variants costing more. However, this is just a speculation, and the final price may vary depending on the storage variants and later plans of Samsung to hike the price. Hence, we should wait for the official launch.
