And it\u2019s not just the Galaxy S26 Edge that\u2019s expected to have a bump; it appears this will be the case for the entire series. So if these phones are going to have a camera bump, just how large is that protrusion going to be? A new leak may give us an answer for the Galaxy S26 Ultra.<\/p>\n<p> Don\u2019t want to miss the best from Android Authority?<\/p>\n<p>Well-known tipster <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/UniverseIce\/status\/1965368429134971265\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">Ice Universe<\/a> has shared some new information about the Galaxy S26 Ultra. This leak touches on the thickness of the camera bump, as well as the size of the telephoto sensor and the phone\u2019s weight.<\/p>\n<p>According to Ice Universe, Samsung has shaved the thickness of the Galaxy S26 Ultra\u2019s body down to 7.9mm. For comparison, the Galaxy S25 Ultra measures at 8.2mm. However, the S26 Ultra\u2019s camera bump will tack on an additional 4.5mm. That\u2019s 2.1mm thicker than 2.4mm camera protrusion on the S25 Ultra.<\/p>\n<p><img class=\"e_0g\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\"  title=\"Galaxy S26 Ultra camera bump 2\"  alt=\"Galaxy S26 Ultra camera bump 2\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Galaxy-S26-Ultra-camera-bump-2.jpg\"\/><img class=\"e_0g\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\"  title=\"Galaxy S26 Ultra camera bump\"  alt=\"Galaxy S26 Ultra camera bump\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Galaxy-S26-Ultra-camera-bump.jpg\"\/><\/p>\n<p>The tipster adds that Samsung could use this extra space for a larger telephoto sensor. But the leaker claims the tech giant will stick with a 1\/2.52\u2033 telephoto sensor at 50MP. They also mention that this will be the \u201csmallest telephoto sensor in a global flagship phone by 2026.\u201d On top of that, it\u2019s said that Samsung could be exploring even bigger camera bump designs for the purpose of future upgrades.<\/p>\n<p>The <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/UniverseIce\/status\/1965373439801524702\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">final part of the leak<\/a> claims that the Galaxy S26 Ultra will weigh 217g. If that\u2019s true, then the phone should feel pretty much the same as this year. As a refresher, the Galaxy S25 Ultra only weighs one gram more at 218g.<\/p>\n<p>Thank you for being part of our community.
