Editorial report

Samsung Galaxy S26 Plus technical sheet

The Samsung Galaxy S26 Plus suits anyone seeking a large, versatile phone for work, gaming, photography, and advanced connections. Its main trade-off is a 4,900 mAh battery, among the weakest capacities in phones from its time.

The 6.7-inch Dynamic AMOLED 2X display combines 1440 × 3120 px, 516 ppi, and 2,600 nits peak brightness. Its 516 ppi density and 90.7% usable surface are among the best of its time, while the 120 Hz refresh rate is typical. The phone weighs 190 g, measures 7.3 mm thick, and resists water and dust to 1.5 m with IP68.

The Samsung Exynos 2600, 12 GB of RAM, and UFS 4.1 storage put performance among the best of its time; AnTuTu reaches 3,142,032. The 50 MP main camera has optical image stabilization, and the telephoto camera provides 3x optical zoom, better than most phones from its time. Connectivity is also among the best, with Wi-Fi 7, Bluetooth 6.0, 5G, eSIM, UWB, and satellite connectivity. Battery performance is better than most, although capacity is a weakness; 20 W wireless charging and reverse charging are included. Android 16 and seven years of OS updates round out the package. The overall NeoScore is 8.6, making this a particularly strong choice for anyone prioritizing the display, performance, and connectivity.
