Saturday, 31 January 2026 at 20:18

Samsung’s Galaxy Unpacked event is getting close, and the Galaxy S26 Ultra leaks are not slowing down. The latest batch brings a near-complete spec sheet along with fresh official-looking renders in Cobalt Violet and Black. The information comes from AndroidHeadlines, which claims to have detailed hardware info on Samsung’s next Ultra flagship.

Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra Specifications Detailed

The Galaxy S26 Ultra is said to feature a 6.9-inch Dynamic AMOLED display with QHD+ resolution and an adaptive 1 to 120Hz refresh rate. One of the standout additions is the new Privacy Display feature. It reduces screen visibility from side angles, acting like a built-in privacy filter. Up front, there is reportedly a 12MP selfie camera, and yes, S Pen support remains part of the package.

In terms of size, the phone is expected to measure 163.6 x 78.1 x 7.9 mm and weigh 214 grams. That makes it extremely close to the Galaxy S25 Ultra, which had a slightly thicker body and a few extra grams. So while the design may look refreshed, the overall footprint stays familiar.

Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen , 200 MP Camera and 60W Fast-Charging

The Performance should come from Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 chip. There is no clear confirmation yet on whether this will be a special “for Galaxy” version, but Samsung sticking with a top-tier Snapdragon part is no surprise. Base storage is listed at 256GB, with options going up to 1TB.

Around the back, Samsung is reportedly tweaking the camera layout. The main sensor remains a 200MP ISOCELL HP2, but rumors point to a brighter f/1.4 aperture for improved low-light performance. It is said to be joined by a 50MP ultrawide camera using Samsung’s JN3 sensor, a 50MP periscope telephoto with Sony’s IMX854, and a 12MP telephoto module based on Samsung’s S5K3LD sensor.

Battery capacity may disappoint some people. The Galaxy S26 Ultra is tipped to keep the same 5,000mAh battery size. Charging speeds are not officially listed in this leak, but previous reports suggest Samsung could finally move to 60W wired charging, up from 45W on the S25 Ultra.
