Leak Claims Galaxy S26 Trio Will Be Thinner and Lighter Than iPhone 17

A prominent leak lists exact sizes and weights for all three models, with final specifications still unconfirmed.

Overview

  • Tipster Ice Universe posts figures suggesting Galaxy S26 (149.4 x 71.5 x 6.9 mm, 164 g), S26+ (158.4 x 75.8 x 7.3 mm, 191 g) and S26 Ultra (163.6 x 78.1 x 7.9 mm, 214 g).
  • The same leak asserts each Galaxy S26 model undercuts its iPhone 17 counterpart on thickness and weight.
  • Reports tied to the Ultra point to a titanium frame, a quad‑camera array led by a 200MP primary sensor, and a larger vapor chamber for improved thermals.
  • Weight data for the Ultra remains inconsistent, with an earlier leak citing 217 g, highlighting that details are still in flux.
  • Separate reporting indicates potential charging upgrades to 60W wired and up to 25W wireless and points to a likely late‑January 2026 launch, with the canceled Edge giving way to the S26+.
