Rumors suggest that Samsung's upcoming flagship, the Galaxy S26 Ultra, may sport a significant design change in its camera setup. Reports from Korea indicate that the device could feature a large camera island, reminiscent of the design seen on the iPhone 17 Pro.
While Samsung's Ultra phones have traditionally had individual circle-islands for each camera sensor, the shift towards a monolithic camera island could allow for better camera capabilities within the phone's body. This potential change has sparked speculation about whether Samsung is drawing inspiration from Apple's design choices.
In recent years, Chinese flagship brands have adopted larger camera islands to showcase camera prowess, and the rumored shift in design for the Galaxy S26 Ultra may signal a similar trend for non-Chinese brands. The device is also expected to come with enhancements such as a new main camera featuring Sony's upcoming 200 MP sensor.
Stay tuned for more updates on the Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra as details continue to emerge.
