New Rumor Doubles Down on Smaller Battery for the Galaxy S26 Ultra — Here’s What We Know
- Samsung plans to release the Galaxy S26 Ultra in early 2026, likely maintaining its 5,000 mAh battery capacity that dates back to 2020.
- Samsung's recent push for thinner device profiles has allowed the company to free up internal space by eliminating certain components, such as the wireless communication module previously integrated into the S Pen.
- Samsung is reportedly sticking with 45W wired fast charging and does not plan to increase battery capacity beyond 5,400 mAh, unlike competitors offering up to 150W charging.
- Reliable leakers such as PandaFlashPro confirm the Galaxy S26 Ultra will not see a major battery upgrade and will keep charging speeds at 45W, noting capacity under 5,400 mAh.
- This strategy favors thinner phone designs over larger batteries, which may disappoint some users amid rising industry standards in battery capacity and charging speed.
