US EditionGalaxy S26 Ultra leak shows off new camera bump that's sure to be annoying
Leaked images show the Galaxy S26 Ultra with a larger camera bump causing more wobble on flat surfaces due to a thinner chassis, a design issue seen in the Fold 7 series.
- @OnLeaks posted images and a brief video on Twitter/X showing apparent dummy units of the Galaxy S26 Ultra, revealing a camera module that noticeably juts out from the back.
- Samsung's updated camera island combines the three lenses on a raised island and resembles the Galaxy Z Fold 7's bump, while the overall shape echoes last year's Galaxy S25 Ultra and the bigger bump is presumably due to a thinner chassis this year.
- Observers warn the left-side bump makes devices wobble on tables, and that wobble is especially bothersome for people who go caseless or use thin cases.
- As Samsung applies this design to more phones, extending the Fold 7–style island to the Galaxy 26 Ultra and series likely worsens wobble, but a case of the right thickness largely solves it.
- The change reflects a trade-off as Samsung builds a thinner chassis this year, and recent leaks indicate the Galaxy S26 series will launch in February, shaping early expectations.

Although we already know that Samsung has started producing the new Galaxy S26, Galaxy S26+ and Galaxy S26 Ultra en masse in order to launch them by the end of February 2026, when there are only two months left for such a presentation, everything seems to indicate that the South Korean giant has not yet set the market outlet prices for its new flaghships due to the increased costs of the components of those smartphones, especially RAM.
