Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra 5G is tipped for major design changes, along with a redesigned S-Pen.

Overview

  • Leaked images from Android Headlines/OnLeaks depict a design close to the S25 Ultra with a flat frame and softer corners, measuring 7.9mm thick with a camera module that adds about 4.5mm.
  • Tipster Ice Universe’s image shows a rounder S Pen top that appears to dock in the bottom corner, with reports indicating Bluetooth functions are still unlikely to return.
  • SamMobile reports Samsung has largely finalized camera hardware for the S26 Ultra, retaining a 200MP primary sensor with 50MP ultra-wide and 5x telephoto, relying more on software and AI for improvements.
  • The broader lineup is reportedly shifting to Galaxy S26 Pro, S26 Edge, and S26 Ultra, with the Edge model emphasized for extreme thinness around 5.5mm.
  • Multiple outlets point to an announcement window in mid to late January 2026, with pricing guidance suggesting little change from the S25 series in markets like India.
