Samsung seems to have inadvertely leaked the biggest upgrade of the Galaxy S26 Ultra; Because the placeme of a 60-watt charger on the company’s official website actually indicates an importa jump in charging speed in this flagship.
Samsung is slowly approaching the time of iroducing the new generation of its flagships, and the Ultra model will probably cross the old ceiling of 45W charging speed for the first time. According to the increasing rumors about the battery, it seems that the Ultra version will experience a significa evolution in the power and charging departme, even if the other models of the S26 series have more limited changes.
Possible disclosure of one of the key features of the Galaxy S26 Ultra
Rumors of increased wired charging speeds have been circulating on the S26 Ultra for mohs, and now a new listing has officially fueled the speculation. The newly iroduced EP-T6010 charger delivers a full 60W of power through a single USB-C port. The importa thing is that this adapter supports the USB PD 3.1 PPS standard; A higher level than the previous 45-watt model, which was based on PD 3.0 PPS. Also, the new version consumes only 5 milliwatts of power in standby mode.
But the more tangible benefit for users is the removal of one of the annoying limitations of the S25 Ultra. In the previous model, achieving 45W speeds was only possible using a 5A USB-C cable and a fully compatible charger. The new EP-T6010 adapter overcomes this limitation and provides a full power of 60 watts with a curre of 3 amps in the range of 5 to 20 volts. Simply put, most standard, high-quality USB-C cables will now be able to enable the S26 Ultra’s maximum charging speed.
Reports show that Samsung plans to market this feature under the name of Super Fast Charging 3.0. In the early versions of One UI 8.5, level 4 is also used to describe this feature, which indicates a multi-stage charge manageme system. However, the input power is expected to vary during the charging process; About 55 watts at the beginning of charging, reducing to 45 watts after reaching 15% and then gradually dropping after 70% to corol heat and increase battery life.
It is also said that wireless charging will be significaly improved by increasing the speed from 15W to 25W and adding iernal magnets that provide full compatibility with the Qi 2.2 standard.
Battery capacity and other possible changes
Battery capacity has also been the subject of discussion in rece mohs. Some early reports reported that the same 5000 mAh battery as the previous generations would be maiained; But a new leak from China claims that the S26 Ultra will be equipped with a 5200 mAh battery. This increase isn’t a huge leap, but after a few years of stability, it seems like a welcome upgrade.
Ierestingly, the charging and battery section seems to be the most importa poi of differeiation of the Ultra model next year. A report from South Korea’s The Elec says that Samsung has decided to keep the camera setup of the Galaxy S25 series in the new model. The rising cost of parts has apparely caused early plans to use new sensors to be shelved and the company to focus on keeping prices stable. This approach is similar to Apple’s strategy on the basic iPhone 17; A model whose initial price did not change despite receiving a 120 Hz display and more base memory.
For comparison, the Galaxy S25 series was launched in India at the following prices:
- Base model: 80,999 rupees
- S25 Plus model: 99,999 rupees
- S25 Ultra model: 1,29,999 rupees
Samsung is expected to maiain the same three-model structure including S26, S26 Plus and S26 Ultra for the new series. Reports suggest that mass production of the Ultra version will begin earlier, but some delays in the production schedule may push the global launch from the usual January to February 2026 timeframe.
