As Galaxy S26 leaks have started to mound, one more added to the pile indicates that the Galaxy S26 Ultra could decrease in thickness. It might not get a bigger battery, but charging speed could increase up to 60W. That, among display, and camera changes, may prompt some excitement for the company\u2019s most expensive slab phone.<\/p>\n

There have been several indications that Samsung is looking to really change things up. That ranges from naming schemes for the flagship trio to the possible lack of S Pen digitizer in upcoming devices to save on Galaxy S26 thickness. That, in itself, might not be exciting, but Samsung seems to be putting a lot of work into what the Ultra means for users.<\/p>\n

According to a leaked spec list posted by @UniverseIce on Twitter\/X<\/a>, the Galaxy S26 Ultra will carry a charging capacity of 5,000mAh. This falls in line with previous leaks, though it\u2019s really up in the air. Other competing and reliable information suggests the device may have a 5,500mAh battery<\/a> with 65W charging.<\/p>\n

This is what we currently know about the Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra:<\/p>\n

The body will become even thinner at 7.x mm, with slightly increased width and height, while weighing a few grams less<\/p>\n

Either way, that\u2019s a significant speed increase. This is one of the higher speeds we\u2019ve seen out of a company that doesn\u2019t often like to take big battery risks.<\/p>\n

Rumors have been competing on battery details for some time. It was originally thought<\/a> that battery capacity would remain the same, but that information might not prove to be true. That\u2019s the nature of leaked information.<\/p>\n

With that, it seems the Galaxy S26 Ultra will be in the 7.Xmm thickness range, down from 8.2mm. There\u2019s no telling if that means 7.9mm or 7.0mm, but it\u2019s a change nonetheless. Previous rumors indicate that\u00a0Samsung may remove the S Pen digitizer<\/a>\u00a0to decrease the phone\u2019s size and bring Qi2 magnets into play. That would line up with the current leak, though it\u2019s all still unconfirmed.<\/p>\n

The post also corroborates the rumor that the Galaxy S26 Ultra will carry an unchanged 200MP camera sensor with a larger aperture<\/a>. The source post adds some background information, noting that the 5x lens will get a bigger aperture, as well. There may also be a new 3x sensor.<\/p>\n

The phone will house a Snapdragon 8 Elite 2 and will power One UI 8.5. This follows Samsung\u2019s plans to launch fresh One UI versions on foldables<\/a>, with much larger UI and UX changes on the \u201c.5\u201d releases with the Galaxy S series.<\/p>\n

Are you looking forward to a Galaxy S26 Ultra with a more approachable thickness?<\/p>\n
