Deviation from Previous Reports

Galaxy S26 Ultra was previously anticipated to incorporate a 10MP 3x telephoto camera and a 5,000mAh battery. While some alterations in the cameras were rumored for the standard models, it seems unlikely that Samsung would implement such comprehensive changes as indicated in the leak.
Considering that the decision to retain the Galaxy S26 Plus model has postponed the release of the Galaxy S26 series, it would be illogical for Samsung to make significant alterations to the Galaxy S26 Ultra. Nevertheless, with the extra time available and the remarkable success of the iPhone 17 series, Samsung might have opted to push the boundaries and introduce substantial modifications.The Galaxy S26 series could redefine the user experience. While specific details were not disclosed, indications point towards upcoming AI advancements and innovative camera sensors. Samsung is unlikely to generate buzz about the cameras in advance if only minor adjustments are planned.

Possibilities Await

Galaxy S26 Ultra could potentially accommodate both a larger battery and enhanced sensors without a substantial increase in thickness and weight. Although there were earlier discussions about equipping the Galaxy S26 Ultra with a 5,500mAh battery, the likelihood of a more extensive cell cannot be dismissed. Similarly, the emergence of the More Slim model in recent leaks indicates that Alchimist Leaks might have legitimate insights rather than baseless speculations. Samsung seems to be improvising with the Galaxy S26 lineup, making the incorporation of improved sensors a plausible impromptu decision. It is advisable to approach this leak with caution for now.
