Galaxy S26 technical sheet
The Samsung Galaxy S26 pairs a glass and aluminium-alloy body measuring 7.2 mm thick with a weight of 167 g. Its 6.3-inch Dynamic AMOLED 2X display has 1,080 × 2,340 px resolution, a 120 Hz refresh rate, peak brightness of 2,600 nits, and HDR10/HDR10+ support. Gorilla Glass Victus 2 and IP68 are documented protections; the listed water-resistance depth is 1.5 m, not a guarantee for every situation.
Inside are the Samsung Exynos 2600, Xclipse 960 GPU, 12 GB of LPDDR5X RAM, and UFS 4.1 storage up to 512 GB. Recorded figures include 3,064,672 in AnTuTu v11, 3,445 in Geekbench 6 single-core, and 11,611 in multi-core. Android 16 and seven years of OS update support suit buyers planning to keep the phone for a long time. Storage expansion is not available, however.
The rear camera system combines a 50 Mpx main camera with optical image stabilisation, a 10 Mpx telephoto camera with 3× optical zoom, and a 12.2 Mpx ultrawide. The main camera records 8K at 30 fps. The 4,300 mAh battery supports 25 W wired charging, 15 W wireless charging, and reverse charging. It fits users seeking a strong display, 5G, Wi‑Fi 7, flexible cameras, and long software support, provided 25 W wired charging is sufficient.
