Galaxy S26 Plus is still coming. Its existence was questioned initially, but the phone is back on track now. New CAD renders show the phone’s design in Papaya Orange and other colors. These shots were dropped on the Android Headlines website, which lends them credibility.
Consider this an early preview of Galaxy S26 Plus. We also saw dimensions in the leak. No doubt it’s the bigger version of the basic Galaxy S26. Also, it’s quite thin at just 7.35mm. The height is 158.4mm, apparently. It’s almost as wide as last time at 75.7mm.
You won’t notice any size difference or changes in thickness if you are coming from the Galaxy S25+. One other thing this leak confirms: the camera island is modified, and it will look like the rest of its siblings. They raised the camera island. The lenses are now enclosed in the vertical bar.
The front looks all the same, but the bezels are a tad thinner. Volume and power buttons are on the right. There’s one speaker at the bottom, and one firing from above. The Samsung new flagship mobile has a metal build, which is why you can see antenna rings on the frame.
We also saw some Galaxy S26 sketches in the leaks. There was a circular ring on the back, a sign that Magnetic Qi2 charging is a possibility on Galaxy S26 and Galaxy S26 Plus (since both phones have the same features). They will finally level up the wireless magnetic alignment for the chargers, something fans have been eager to see.
Folks at Android Headlines wrote that the Galaxy S26 and S26 Plus will both carry the new Exynos 2600. This is coming as a dual-chip strategy. Some markets will also have the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5. There’s at least 12GB on the Galaxy S26 Plus.
Some reports say there’s even a 16GB option, but we’ll believe it when we see it. Its screen will be the usual WQHD+ 2K at 6.7”. Nothing has been said about its camera, though. We’ll get back to you once we have more details. Keep watching the news in the meantime.
