Islamabad, July 25, 2025: Samsung may finally be ready to break its four-year battery freeze with the upcoming Galaxy S26 Ultra expected to launch in early 2026. According to recent leaks, the tech giant could be giving its flagship device a much-needed boost in both battery capacity and charging speed.
One major leak suggests that the S26 Ultra will feature a 5,500mAh battery paired with 65W fast charging, a significant jump from the long-standing 5,000mAh/45W combo that has been used since the Galaxy S20 Ultra in 2020. If true, that is a 10% battery increase and nearly 45% faster charging, offering users quicker top-ups and longer usage time — all packed into a design that’s reportedly slimmer than before.
The source of this info has a fairly reliable track record. However, there’s a conflicting report from another trusted Samsung tipster who claims that the battery size will remain unchanged at 5,000mAh.
This has left fans in a bit of suspense — will Samsung finally make the leap or stick with its tried-and-tested setup?

One thing is certain, Samsung users have been waiting for a genuine upgrade in battery tech for years. Whether it’s a bigger battery, faster charging, or both — the S26 Ultra is shaping up to be one of the brand’s most anticipated flagships yet.
More concrete details are expected in the coming months as production begins and leaks become more refined.
