Ice Universe says the Galaxy S26 Ultra isn't getting a new sensor for the main camera

Peter, 04 August 2025 Ice Universe just poured cold water on people hoping for a sensor upgrade on the 200MP main camera on the Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra. However, there is still a fairly important upgrade coming, says the leakster. The S26 Ultra will use the same ISOCELL HP2 1/1.3' sensor that Samsung has been using since the S23 Ultra. So, no 1.1' 200MP Sony sensor. However, Ice reports that Samsung will improve the lens with a wider f/1.4 aperture. This would let 47% more light reach the sensor, compared to the f/1.7 lens on the S25 Ultra. The Galaxy S10 series was the last from Samsung to feature a dual aperture An f/1.4 aperture may not be the best for daylight shots, however a solution for that already exists – remember when certain Galaxy S models had a dual aperture? The Galaxy S10e, S10 and S10+ were the last to have this feature and could switch between f/1.5 and f/2.4. Indeed, The Cat mentioned that Samsung is considering resurrecting this feature. And now we know why bringing back this feature would be necessary. However, it's not clear whether this means a dual aperture (i.e. two settings and nothing in between) or a variable aperture like we've seen from other brands. The Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra is expected to ship with the Snapdragon 8 Elite 2 and One UI 8.5, a bigger screen and (possibly) bigger battery, with faster charging to boot, plus a number of camera upgrades, including a new telephoto module.

New iPhone 17 Air battery leak might make you reevaluate the Galaxy S25 Edge

If you've been expecting Apple to outclass Samsung in terms of battery size in the newly established ultra-thin flagship phone category this year, then... you've probably not paid much attention to the iPhone 17 Air rumors floating around these last few months. The first-of-a-kind iOS handset expected to go up against the Galaxy S25 Edge starting next month has long been tipped (by more than one source) to pack a sub-3,000mAh cell, and now there's cold hard evidence supporting that theory. Obviously, no one knows the answer to that question (for sure) at the moment, but the freshly leaked images purporting to show the phone's battery paint quite a spectacular picture. Unfortunately, they also make it virtually impossible for the iPhone 17 Air to break the aforementioned 3,000mAh cell capacity barrier, with the exact number instead being very likely to sit at "approximately" 2,900mAh. That's a crazy thin battery by any standards. | Image Credit -- Majin Bu All this information comes from an insider who's been right about some things in the past and wrong about a few others, so it's not technically etched in stone just yet. But there's rarely (this much) smoke without fire around an unannounced product in the rumor mill, so you can probably say that the iPhone 17 Air is essentially guaranteed now to pack a considerably smaller battery than its direct rival. Yes, this astoundingly thin 2,900mAh cell might make the Galaxy S25 Edge look like a battery life champion considering that Samsung's 6.7-inch Snapdragon 8 Elite powerhouse with a 5.8mm waist stands at no less than 3,900mAh in the battery size department. Our Galaxy S25 Edge review, remember, was not exactly glowing with battery endurance praise, so you can imagine that the iPhone 17 Air is likely to deliver even lower numbers between charges if the 2,900mAh capacity rumor pans out. Of course, Apple does have a knack of squeezing the best possible times out of smaller batteries than the competition, but in this particular case, the tech giant may need a miracle to play in the same league as Samsung. And that's before the Galaxy S26 Edge will allegedly take things to the next level in early 2026 with a 4,400 or 4,500mAh battery. Pretty bad, I'm afraid, with last year's "vanilla" iPhone 16, for instance, standing at close to 3,600mAh, and this year's base iPhone 17 likely to more or less keep that figure unchanged. You have to go back to something like the 2020-released iPhone 12 to find a sub-3,000mAh battery (2,815mAh, to be specific) in a non-diminutive Apple handset, with 2021's iPhone 13 mini, of course, packing an even smaller 2,438mAh cell. Believe it or not, that's (allegedly) the iPhone 17 Air battery next to the iPhone 17 Pro battery. | Image Credit -- Majin Bu The problem with the iPhone 17 Air is that its screen size is rumored to come much closer to the 7-inch mark than 6 or 6.5 inches, so it's really hard to be optimistic that a 2,900mAh battery will be able to keep such a gargantuan (and undoubtedly high-resolution) Super Retina display going for reasonable times between charges. Sub-par battery life could prove especially problematic if the razor-thin device ends up costing $900 or more, as a number of sources have claimed in recent months. The iPhone 17 Air , remember, is likely to act as a follow-up of sorts to the rather unpopular iPhone 16 Plus, which starts at $899 in the US with a "normal" 7.8mm profile, large 6.7-inch screen, and fittingly hefty 4,700mAh or so battery.
