The Samsung Galaxy S26 series—reportedly set for launch on February 25, 2026—is already the subject of numerous online leaks despite Samsung's silence on the development and features. The series is expected to include the Galaxy S26, Galaxy S26+, and Galaxy S26 Ultra.
Contradicting a recent report that the Galaxy S26 Ultra may not support fast wired charging, a new leak suggests the entire S26 series could feature an upgrade to fast wireless charging. Furthermore, one tipster has shared dimensions indicating that the standard Galaxy S26 may have a larger display than its predecessor.
Wireless charging upgrade anticipated
Citing industry sources, South Korean publication ETNews reports that the Galaxy S26 series will feature significantly faster wireless charging than the Galaxy S25 lineup.
- The flagship Galaxy S26 Ultra is expected to support 25W wireless charging.
- The Galaxy S26+ and vanilla Galaxy S26 may feature 20W wireless fast charging.
If confirmed, this would be the first upgrade to wireless charging speeds for Samsung's flagship Galaxy S series in six years, as every model from the Galaxy S20 through the S25 lineup supported only 15W wireless charging. A separate recent report also suggested that the Galaxy S26 Ultra and Galaxy S26 could support 45W and 25W wired fast charging, respectively.
