Major Camera Upgrades for the Galaxy S26 series tipped

According to tipster Alchimist Leaks, the top-end Galaxy S26 Ultra will likely boast a 6.9-inch Quad HD OLED display built on Samsung’s next-generation M14 panel. The device is said to introduce AI-powered privacy-screen functionality, allowing users to limit viewing angles for added discretion.

The Ultra model is also rumoured to feature an enhanced quad rear camera setup, including an updated 200-megapixel main sensor, a new ultra-wide lens, and a 50-megapixel telephoto camera offering 5x optical zoom. The fourth lens could be either a 12-megapixel 3x or 50-megapixel 3x telephoto shooter, depending on the final configuration Samsung selects.

The standard Galaxy S26 and S26+ are also tipped to receive camera enhancements. Both models could feature triple rear cameras comprising a 50-megapixel primary sensor (1/1.3 or 1/1.56-inch), a 50-megapixel ultra-wide lens, and a 12-megapixel 3x telephoto camera.
