After the recent launch of the iPhone 17, all eyes are now on the upcoming Samsung Galaxy S26 series. The latest leaks are providing more details on the top-tier Galaxy S26 Ultra model.

A recent update from tipster Ice Universe reveals that the Galaxy S26 Ultra will use the same 50 MP sensor for its 5x telephoto camera as the Galaxy S25 Ultra. This 1/2.52" 0.7μm sensor was also utilized in the S24 Ultra and could potentially make its way to the Galaxy S27 Ultra as well.
