The device is now capable of wirelessly charging at 25W, a significant improvement over previous models.\n<\/p>\n<p>However, some users have found that their device <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sammobile.com\/news\/galaxy-s26-ultra-25w-wireless-charging-not-work-all-magnetic-cases\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">doesn&#8217;t charge wirelessly at 25W<\/a>. That&#8217;s because they need to use a faster wired charger for the charging pad.\n<\/p>\n<p>\nYou need to buy another accessory\n<\/p>\n<p>The wireless charging speeds were increased for both the Galaxy S26+ and the Galaxy S26 Ultra at 20W and 25W, respectively. The relevant wireless charging pad from Samsung that can support charging devices at these speeds is the EP-P2900.\n<\/p>\n<p>Samsung guides that to hit wireless charging speeds of 25W on the Galaxy S26 Ultra and 20W on the Galaxy S26+, the wireless charging pad must be connected to a 45W or higher charger.\n<\/p>\n<p>If you use a 25W charger with the wireless charging pad, for example, then it will only charge your device wirelessly at 15W. This limitation also applies to third-party Qi 2.2 charging pads.\n<\/p>\n<p>This means you need to upgrade your charging adapter, if you don&#8217;t already have a 45W one, before buying this wireless charger. That&#8217;s going to add up, as the EP-P2900 wireless charger costs $49.99 and a 45W charging adapter costs an additional $49.99.\n<\/p>\n<p>Find the best deals<\/p>\n<p>                            Buy the Galaxy S26 Ultra<\/p>\n<p>            <a class=\"button default\" href=\"https:\/\/www.sammobile.com\/out\/galaxy-s26-ultra\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\"><br \/>\n            Buy now                    <\/a><\/p>\n<p>Fortunately, Samsung sells a bundle that includes an EP-P2900 wireless charger with a 45W charging adapter <a href=\"https:\/\/www.samsung.com\/us\/mobile-accessories\/magnet-wireless-charger-with-45w-travel-adapter-dark-gray-sku-ep-p2900tbegus\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">for $74.99<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Samsung bumped up the wired and wireless charging speeds for the Galaxy S26 Ultra.
