The Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra is anticipated to launch in January next year with a 5,500 mAh battery, a modest 10% increase from the S25 Ultra's 5,000 mAh. In comparison, many Chinese competitors are now offering batteries starting at 6,000 mAh or higher, which could position Samsung at a disadvantage. The new model will, however, support 65W charging for the first time, allowing faster charging capabilities than the previous 45W limit, though the specific improvements in charging time are yet to be determined. The device is also expected to be thinner than its predecessor and support the Qi2 wireless charging standard at 25W.
The S26 Ultra is expected to feature a 5,500 mAh battery, marking a 10% increase over the S25 Ultra's 5,000 mAh. However, mid-range brands have made 6,000 and 7,000 mAh batteries standard, making this a potential weakness for Samsung's flagship.
For the first time, a Samsung smartphone will support 65W charging, improving charging speed beyond the previous cap of 45W, although the impact on charging times remains unclear.
The S26 Ultra is reported to be thinner than the S25 Ultra, with a thickness of less than 8.2 mm, while also introducing support for the Qi2 25W wireless charging standard.
