Following an early leak yesterday, a new set of renders has essentially confirmed that the Galaxy S26 Edge will look a lot like Apple\u2019s next iPhone, while apparently also adding Qi2 magnets.<\/p>\n

Images created by @OnLeaks for Android Headlines<\/a> show what the Galaxy S26 Edge will look like, based on CAD files used for making accessories for the device. The renders show a device with a drastically different design that includes a full-width camera module, but only two cameras mounted on the far left side of the device.<\/p>\n

In other words, it looks like an iPhone 17<\/a>. <\/p>\n

The report claims that the Galaxy S26 Edge, which is rumored to replace the Galaxy S26+, will measure in at 158.4 x 75.7 x 5.5mm. That\u2019s even thinner than the Galaxy S25 Edge, despite rumored battery improvements. <\/a>The camera bump, though, apparently pops out to 10.8mm, meaning it\u2019s almost as thick as the phone itself. Given the size of that bump, that\u2019s sure to take away from the otherwise thin design.<\/p>\n

However, the report also claims that Samsung is looking to finally add Qi2 magnets to the Galaxy S26 series, as hinted by yesterday\u2019s leak<\/a>. There\u2019s no visible way to see this, but CAD files used for accessories would likely include the location of the magnets for the sake of cases aligning their magnets with the phone\u2019s own.<\/p>\n

Notably, this same post was briefly published claiming that the Galaxy S26 Edge was actually going to be called the Galaxy S26 Pro (as seen in image names<\/a> that are still up), and that a \u201cvanilla\u201d base Galaxy S26 would be released after all. That version of the report was taken down and replaced with the existing one quickly, though, so there\u2019s probably not much stock to take in it. We\u2019ve heard from multiple sources in recent months that the base model will be the \u201cPro.\u201d<\/a><\/p>\n

What do you think of Samsung\u2019s new design?<\/p>\n
