Overview
- Ice Universe shared alleged internal Samsung test results showing the S26 Ultra reaches about 75% from empty in 30 minutes under controlled lab conditions.
- Recent 3C certification and Samsung’s new 60W USB‑C adapter listings indicate 60W wired support, with the charging brick expected to be sold separately.
- The reported upgrade applies only to the Ultra model, while the S26 and S26+ are expected to remain at 25W and 45W for wired charging.
- Wireless charging is rumored to rise to 25W on the Ultra and 20W on the S26 and S26+, with Qi2.2 support and built-in magnets for alignment.
- Battery capacity leaks conflict between a 5,000mAh 3C listing and earlier 5,200mAh claims, and coverage notes the gain over the S25 Ultra appears modest given prior 72%-in-30-minutes results.
