7,000mAh Hype Dies: Galaxy S26 Ultra battery may not even reach 5,500mAh

A new rumor crushes the Galaxy S26 Ultra flagship’s 7,000mAh battery hype yet carries a piece of convincing news. Samsung may finally surpass the 5,000mAh battery bound in its flagship phones, starting with the Galaxy S26 series.
Leaker PandaFlash reports that the S26 Ultra will not be packed with a 7,000mAh battery. Beyond that, the source highlighted that the phone won’t even reach 6000mAh capacity as Samsung Test Lab allegedly has up to 5500mAh battery.
It seems to be a big downgrade (everything in rumors), but the S26 Ultra may finally bring a 5500mAh battery. Things may be even better if Samsung finally jumps to the next-gen silicon carbon battery technology next year.
Compared to lithium-ion, silicon carbon batteries improve the capacity by at least 10 percent. The new material will keep the size intact while boosting the capacity. A significant jump can only be possible if Samsung opts for Si/C batteries.

Meanwhile, Samsung is prioritizing software optimization to increase efficiency. Similar to Apple, the company is working on One UI tweaks and background app processes to elevate Galaxy’s battery life rather than raising battery capacity.
A few days back, a Korean outlet’s report circulated with big battery hypes. It was confidently reported that Samsung is considering 6,000mAh to 7,000mAh capacity battery for its next-generation flagship smartphones.
The Galaxy S26 series is expected to be launched in January 2026. There’s a whole year and genuine inputs may appear after the debut of Z7 series foldables yet you can enjoy the tech world, which continues to evolve further.

Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra may not feature under-display camera due to quality concerns

Samsung may avoid under-display selfie camera technology in the Galaxy S26 Ultra. The company may continue its Infinity-O screen approach for an additional two to three years.
According to the info, Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra may not feature an under-display camera. The technology is yet to be matured and has concerns like low resolution and quality.
Samsung doesn’t really want to compromise on the picture quality of the selfie camera. Therefore, UDC would remain a dream feature until it matures and clears its technological hurdles.
Under display/panel camera technology refers to a next-gen display that makes the selfie camera hole hidden when not in use, you only see the black sensor cutout when the camera is in use.
Earlier, rumors spread that the early S26 Ultra prototype had UDC technology. Samsung’s Display division was suspected to be considering under-display tech for the next-gen flagship.
However, the new input from a different leaker indicates that UDC isn’t coming anytime soon. Samsung has applied an under-display camera in its foldable lineup, starting with the Z Fold 3.
The Korean tech giant has just released the new Galaxy S26 series. Now, preparations are underway for a pair of mid-range phones along with the Galaxy S25 Edge (coming around April).
In the second half, the company will introduce next-generation foldable smartphones. The Galaxy Z Fold 7 is expected to debut a more enhanced under-panel camera technology this year.

Samsung Galaxy S25 Edge screen leak reveals shocking details

A new leak reveals shocking details about the Galaxy S25 Edge screen. The smartphone is expected to be introduced around April this year. Meanwhile, a credible leaker just exposed its possible front appearance in a screen protector image.
Samsung insider IceUniverse posted an image of the alleged S25 Edge protective film. This leak reveals shocking details about the screen of the upcoming Galaxy S25 Edge, including its size, and corners; but not the bezels.
Galaxy S25 Plus comes with a 6.7-inch Dynamic AMOLED display. The source also mentioned that the screen size of the S25 Edge is similar to the S25 Plus. The protective film shows extremely thin bezels that might not be the same in reality.
Third-party protective films safeguard the screen from regular scratches. The surrounding bezels differ from the consumer units. Hence, it’s unsafe to assume that the S25 Edge bezels would be similar to what is shown in the screen protector.

Previous reports suggest that the Galaxy S25 Edge will be unveiled in the second quarter. The company was testing two prototypes with different designs and specs. At the Unpacked, Samsung showed us what’s being developed for consumers.
The smartphone could be packed with a 3900mAh battery with 25W fast charging. The dual camera module may have a 200-megapixel primary and a 50-megapixel ultra-wide sensor; lacking a dedicated Telephoto zoom camera.
Snapdragon 8 Elite is almost confirmed to power the Galaxy S25 Edge. Both the US and Global variants will likely use an 8-core Snapdragon chip, with performance improvements revealed in the recent Geekbench tests.

Samsung phones rumored to integrate DeepSeek AI in China

Samsung is rumored to integrate DeepSeek AI in China. The new AI model’s rise has even surpassed ChatGPT due to its affordability and capabilities. Now, a new input indicates that Samsung would follow Chinese vendors.
Leaker IceUniverse claims that Samsung will integrate DeepSeek. This development indicates that Galaxy phones might add DeepSeek AI. The company may tweak the software to offer the new DeepSeek as a Gemini alternative.
The source post reads “Confirm that Samsung in China will connect to DeepSeek, we can look forward to it.” It points to a piece of genuine information rather than being a wild rumor that often surfaces in the smartphone world.
This integration is seen as Samsung’s strategy to align with the preferences of the Chinese market, where there is a high demand for advanced AI features without premium pricing as local vendors already announced to integration of DeepSeek.
Potential benefits for Samsung:
- Market Strategy: Samsung aims to grow in China by offering tailored, powerful AI with DeepSeek.
- Software Tweaks: DeepSeek could be customized to blend with One UI for smooth integration.
- Competitive Edge: Integrating DeepSeek could help Samsung stand out against local giants like Huawei in China.
- Privacy and Localization: Using DeepSeek might ease privacy concerns by aligning with Chinese regulations.

1TB Galaxy S25 Ultra? You won’t find it at AT&T, T-Mobile, or Verizon

Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra with 1TB storage is not easily accessible in the US. While trying, you may have failed in finding the 1TB model of the Galaxy S25 Ultra at leading US carriers such as AT&T, T-Mobile, and Verizon.
Galaxy S25 Ultra is available with up to 1TB of storage in all countries. Meanwhile, the major US carriers are only selling 256GB and 512GB models, and the reason behind this sales strategy is yet to be explained.
Well, you can still buy the 1TB model through the official Samsung website. The unlocked 1TB S25 Ultra is up for sale at a promotional price of $1,419.99, down from the recommended price of $1,659.99 in the country.
Getting an unlocked model is not a bad deal, but carrier-bounded models reduce the burden of a full payment. A significant portion of consumers purchase premium phones on contract to soften the up-front costs.
512GB is a decent storage for most of the smartphone users. However, some require even more storage to keep epic moments stored. Photography enthusiasts also prefer the largest storage option to enjoy the camera without storage burden.
During the pre-orders, Samsung offered free double storage benefits. Ordering a 256GB model unlocks the 512GB model without raising the price. However, the offer is now over and the device starts at $1299 for 256GB in the US.
