This is in line with the recently leaked CAD renders of the Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra. It suggests that the South Korean tech giant could redesign the rear camera of its next flagship, as its supposed predecessor, the Galaxy S25 Ultra, has discrete camera lenses.

The rumoured Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra is tipped to sport a 6.9-inch QHD+ CoE Dynamic AMOLED display with M14 materials, and it is also said to offer support for a new privacy screen feature. The Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra is expected to be offered in 256GB, 512GB, and 1TB internal storage options.

It could be powered by Qualcomm's Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 for Galaxy chipset, paired with a 5,000mAh battery. It might support 60W wired fast charging, too. However, in select regions, the smartphone will reportedly be equipped with an Exynos 2600 SoC.

For optics, the Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra is tipped to feature a 200-megapixel main camera on the back with an f/1.4 aperture, a 50-megapixel periscope lens with an f/2.9 aperture and 5x zoom, a 50-megapixel ultrawide sensor, and a 12-megapixel telephoto lens with 3x zoom. It could measure about 7.9mm in thickness.
