Following a previous appearance, a new leak again shows off Samsung’s upcoming Qi2 battery bank for the Galaxy S26 series and how it’s been designed to work around the phone’s camera bump.
In December, a listing appeared to show off a magnetic Qi2 battery bank Samsung is making for the Galaxy S26 series, adding weight to the idea that the company’s new smartphones will support native Qi2 magnets – finally.
Now, WinFuture has uncovered more images of that battery, showing off the design in more detail. The battery appears to have a plastic or painted metal frame with a kickstand, the latter similar to some similar Qi2 batteries we’ve tested with the Pixel 10 series. There’s also a USB-C port to the right side of the bank, and a color-matched USB-C cable that is presumably included in the box. It’s also noted that the power bank has 15W output and 5,000 mAh capacity.
The biggest difference in this bank compared to most is the design, or what it’s designed around.

As can be more clearly seen in these images, the top portion of the power bank is cut out to leave room for the camera bump on Galaxy phones, which looks even bigger on the upcoming Galaxy S26 series. This has been a problem on Galaxy phones with existing magnetic battery banks (while using magnet add-ons) because the Qi charging coil is so close to the camera that the battery banks tend be pushed out of alignment or even cover part of the camera.
