Samsung Galaxy S26, S26 Edge, and S26 Ultra camera details leak
Samsung's Galaxy S26 family launching in January will have three members but not the ones you'd expect - according to a leak from earlier today, these will be the S26, S26 Edge, and S26 Ultra, with the Plus model being retired. Now another rumor indirectly confirms this by revealing the codenames for the upcoming devices, and there are only three of them: NPA1, NPA2, and NPA3. These stand for "next paradigm" or "new paradigm", as the S25 family's codenames were all "paradigm". Samsung Galaxy S25 Edge The S26 Ultra will allegedly have a 200 MP main camera (which could be using a new, big Sony sensor), and a 50 MP telephoto camera with 5x optical zoom. The Galaxy S26 Edge is getting a 50 MP ultrawide, while the base model S26 may not receive any camera upgrades at all. All of this information is said to come from (unnamed) publicly accessible databases, which can clearly be linked with Samsung and its suppliers, so the source insists it's more reliable intel than your average leak or rumor. Whether that's true remains to be seen. Source (in German)

Those would be the following models:The new report comes shortly after theseries was spotted in GSMA database listings. The leaked listings had only three model numbers, corresponding to the same trio of potential a move from Samsung wouldn't be exactly shocking. Thehad the same 6.7-inch display as the S25 Plus, but in a much thinner body. The obvious trade-offs are the loss of a camera on the back and the significantly smaller battery, which also charges more slowly. However, all that makes thestand out from the rest of the lineup, which might be Samsung's that rumor is true, Samsung will end up with three very distinct flagship offerings, potentially attracting more attention. On the other hand, everyone who wanted a bigger phone, but without the extra features of the Ultra, would have to choose either a device with a smaller battery or one with an even bigger screen and a higher Apple's experience is an indication for Samsung's business, the Plus models aren't smash hits. The iPhone 16 Plus was the lowest-selling of the iPhone 16 series, so this year it might be replaced by the iPhone 17 Air . I believe it's safe to assume that Samsung's numbers are similar, and the Galaxy S25 Plus was probably the lowest-selling model of the with that in mind, I'd take these rumors with a grain of salt. We've heard that the Plus model would be discontinued many times before, but it always comes back. Besides, thedoesn't seem to sell particularly well either, so the age of the super-slim flagship might need to wait longer.

There won't be a Samsung Galaxy S26+, new report claims
This year Samsung launched the Galaxy S25, S25+, and S25 Ultra in January and then the S25 Edge in May. Next year, the family (if we disregard the FE model) will only be made up of three members, according to a new report from Samsung's home of South Korea. So, expect to see the 6.27-inch Galaxy S26, the 6.66-inch Galaxy S26 Edge, and the 6.89-inch Galaxy S26 Ultra. That's right, there won't be a Galaxy S26+, that is, of course, if this report proves to be accurate. We can't say we're very surprised. After all, the Galaxy S25 Edge has the same screen size as the S25+, but it's thinner (with all the compromises arising from that - primarily we're talking one less camera and a far smaller battery). And with Apple long rumored to replace the iPhone 16 Plus with the iPhone 17 Air, Samsung is just following along. We assume that the Plus model of the Galaxy S series has been the lowest-selling one by far (it's the same case for Apple), and so letting it go makes sense, especially as the Edge will actually cater to those who specifically want the in-between screen size. For those who want the biggest screen and the most features, there's always the Ultra, and of course it helps Samsung's bottom line that it's the most expensive of the line - and that the Edge is more expensive than the Plus. Average selling price for the line will definitely go up, even if only by a little. The flip side is that those who really liked what the Plus had to offer and didn't need the extra bells and whistles of the Ultra will now have two flawed options to pick from: the Edge with the same size but slightly more expensive and with a smaller battery and presumably still one less camera, or the Ultra that's much more expensive, and bigger, and heavier.

Samsung Galaxy S26 leaked display specs reveal no Plus model this year
Come 2026, we may not see a Galaxy S Plus model for the first time in nearly a decade. If fresh leaks are anything to go by, Samsung could be ready to retire the 'Plus' variant from its Galaxy S series altogether. These rumours have been doing the rounds ever since the Galaxy S25 Edge was quietly launched earlier this year. At the time, many believed Samsung was simply experimenting with a new form factor or naming strategy. But now, the leaks suggest that the Edge might officially take the place of the Plus model in the next S to Korean publication The Elec, Samsung is currently working on three Galaxy S26 models. However, the list does not include a 'Plus' model. Instead, Samsung is said to be preparing the Galaxy S26, the Galaxy S26 Edge, and the Galaxy S26 Ultra. The leak reveals the display sizes too: the regular S26 may come with a 6.27-inch screen, the S26 Edge could get a 6.66-inch panel, and the S26 Ultra is expected to offer the biggest at 6.89 inches. These sizes appear to be based on manufacturing details related to parts already being report, if accurate, marks a big shift for Samsung. The company has consistently launched a Plus model every year since the Galaxy S8 Plus in 2017. Before that, the Galaxy S7 Edge carried the torch as the larger-screened version. In total, Samsung has launched nine Galaxy S Plus models to date. But with the Galaxy S25 Edge having joined the lineup this year as an additional option, it now seems like that was more than just a one-off experiment, possibly a test to see how buyers would respond. Right now, Samsung is offering four phones under the Galaxy S25 series: the standard S25, S25 Plus, S25 Edge and S25 Ultra. All of them are powered by the Snapdragon 8 Elite chipset. In terms of display sizes, the S25 has a 6.2-inch screen, the S25 Plus and Edge feature 6.7-inch panels, and the Ultra gets a 6.9-inch one. So if the Plus is indeed going away, the Edge would step in as the mid-size from the S series, Samsung also recently refreshed its foldable lineup with the Galaxy Z Fold 7, Flip 7 and Flip 7 FE. While the company hasn't confirmed anything officially about the Galaxy S26 series yet, leaks like these often point towards what's coming. Whether fans will miss the Plus model or welcome the Edge as a proper replacement, we'll know early next year when Samsung is likely to launch the S26 series.- Ends

This Galaxy S26 leak is bad news for small-phone lovers
C. Scott Brown / Android Authority TL;DR A Korean outlet reports that Samsung is working on the Galaxy S26 Edge instead of the S26 Plus. The outlet also revealed screen sizes for all three models, and the base model might get a small size bump. The Samsung Galaxy S26 series is still roughly six months away from launch, but that hasn't stopped the steady stream of leaks. It now looks like we've got screen-related details for all three phones. The Elec reports (h/t: Jukanlosreve on Twitter) that there are three models, namely the base Galaxy S26, the Galaxy S26 Edge, and the Galaxy S26 Ultra. In other words, it looks like Samsung has indeed swapped out the Plus variant for the Edge model. This purported swap comes weeks after reports that Samsung was thinking about ditching the Galaxy S26 Plus in favor of the Galaxy S26 Edge. The Korean outlet also reports that the Galaxy S26 has a 6.27-inch display, the S26 Edge has a 6.66-inch screen, and the Galaxy S26 Ultra has a 6.89-inch panel. The S26 Edge and S26 Ultra screen sizes will presumably be rounded up to 6.7 inches and 6.9 inches, respectively, in line with previous models. The base model's 6.27-inch screen size, however, would be a small jump over the S25's 6.2-inch screen. I'm guessing Samsung could round up the S26's screen size to 6.3 inches, but we'll have to wait for more leaks to corroborate that. This news comes after a trusted outlet reported on several more Galaxy S26 series details. The outlet asserts that the S26 Ultra will have a 200MP main camera and a 50MP telephoto camera (presumably 5x). It also reports that the Galaxy S26 Edge/Plus will have a 50MP ultrawide camera, which would be in line with the S25 Edge. Got a tip? Talk to us! Email our staff at Email our staff at news@ .
