Fan Renders Show Galaxy S26 Ultra With Raised Camera Island

Leaked concept renders imply that larger-aperture lenses in a thinner chassis will require a 3 mm raised island for the S26 Ultra, with Samsung yet to confirm the design.

Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra 5G is expected to come with a new camera module design to store enhanced camera lenses.

Overview

  • The fan-made render depicts a vertical island housing three of the four rear cameras, marking a change from the bump-less S25 Ultra profile.
  • Rumors suggest the main and 5× telephoto lenses will sport larger apertures in a slimmer body, forcing the camera bump to protrude about 3 mm.
  • Ice Universe first shared the conceptual image and linked it to previous lens-size leaks, and @kro_roe later corroborated the layout and noted ringed camera surrounds.
  • The proposed grouped camera platform mirrors the Galaxy Z Fold 7’s styling, hinting at a more unified aesthetic across Samsung’s flagship lineup.
  • All details remain speculative in the absence of any official Samsung confirmation on the S26 Ultra’s final design.
