Samsung is already preparing its next high -end smartphone, the S26 Ultra. This future model would have a design that takes care of your hands and that wants to end the pockets.
Comfort has become a major criterion in the design of smartphones. The manufacturers constantly adjust their designs to improve handling and avoid the inconvenience of everyday life. Samsung has long been criticized for the very sharp corners of its ultra models. The Galaxy S24 Ultra, with its titanium chassis with bright edges, has been particularly finger for its ergonomics deemed too aggressive. These choices made the latter difficult to hold with one hand and impractical to slip into a pocket.
The Galaxy S26 Ultra would therefore be the next to benefit from this design development. According to the information reported by the Leaker Ice Universe, Samsung is preparing a chassis with even more rounded corners than those of the Galaxy S25 Ultra. The latter had already marked a rupture by abandoning the very square edges of the previous models. With the new model, the firm would push this approach even further, with a form designed to be more pleasant to hold while strengthening the general elegance of the smartphone.
The Galaxy S26 would ultra -rounded its four corners to improve its handling
The Galaxy S25 Ultra had attenuated the problem of lively angles, often deemed annoying in the palm or difficult to slip into a pocket. The Galaxy S26 ultra would accentuate this aesthetic turn by offering even more rounded corners. This choice should also agree with a thinner silhouette, mentioned in leaks, giving a more elegant and modern appearance.
In addition to design, technical improvements would be planned. The smartphone would keep a 5,000 mAh battery, but with a faster wired load of 60 W. On the photo side, the main 200 -megapixel sensor would remain identical, but it would go to an f/1.4 opening against F/1.7 on the current model, to capture more light and better successful shots in low light. The 3X telephoto lens could also increase to 50 megapixels for more details. Finally, a new OLED slab called “Flex Magic Pixel” would be envisaged, integrating artificial intelligence to protect the confidentiality of the display.
The four corners of the Galaxy S26 Ultra’s body have become rounder.
