Samsung Galaxy S26's Charging Speed: A Surprising Upgrade

The Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra is rumored to enhance its wired charging capacity to 60W. In contrast, the S26+ is expected to maintain a 45W capacity, similar to the S25+, while the standard S26 may achieve 45W, aligning it with the Plus model.

This change could lead to improved charging times, though the exact impact remains to be seen. Both the Galaxy S26 and S26+ are believed to be equipped with the Exynos 2600 chipset, although it is unclear if this will be available in all markets. The Galaxy S26 Ultra is reportedly set to feature the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5. All three devices are anticipated to be unveiled on February 25.

While we cannot verify the accuracy of these claims, it is certainly due time for Samsung's most affordable flagship device to exceed the 25W charging limit. Competitors in the market have been offering significantly higher charging speeds for years.
