Following all the leaks, rumors, and speculation, today the inevitable has happened – a new leak brings us full spec sheets for all three members of the upcoming Galaxy S26 family. As hinted at through Samsung’s teasers, the main focus this year will be AI, as the hardware hasn’t changed all that much compared to the Galaxy S25 family.
The Galaxy S26 and S26+ will allegedly be powered by the Exynos 2600 SoC in Europe, while the S26 Ultra will have the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 for Galaxy, with slightly overclocked Prime CPU cores. The S26 and S26+ will have 12GB of RAM, while the Ultra will go up to 16GB, but only if you opt for the version with 1TB of storage. The S26 will also start at 256GB of space, by the way. The screens are identical in size and resolution to the S25 series, and they all feature Gorilla Armor 2 on top.
The only upgrade in battery capacity is coming to the S26, with 300 extra mAh compared to its predecessor. The other two are unchanged, but the Ultra does charge at up to 60W via wire. None of the three have built-in magnets for Qi2 wireless charging.
All three models have the same 12MP selfie camera with f/2.2 aperture and PDAF. The S26 and S26+ have the same rear camera setup, with a 50MP main snapper with f/1.8 aperture using a 1/1.56″ type sensor, a 10MP 3x optical zoom camera with f/2.4 aperture using a 1/3.94″ type sensor, and a 12MP ultrawide with f/2.2 aperture and no autofocus.
The Galaxy S26 Ultra has a 200MP main camera with f/1.4 aperture, the same 10MP 3x optical zoom camera as the other two, a 50MP 5x optical zoom periscope telephoto camera with f/2.8 aperture using a 1/2.52″ type sensor, and a 50MP ultrawide with f/1.9 aperture using a 1/2.5″ type sensor with autofocus. All of the specs are also listed in the table below. Pricing in the EU will allegedly start at €999 for the S26, €1,269 for the S26+, and €1,469 for the S26 Ultra.
