The Samsung Galaxy S26 is a solid phone that desperately needs a camera upgrade

The Galaxy S26 upgrades to a 6.3-inch OLED and a Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 chipset in some regions.

Samsung kept the same triple-camera hardware as earlier models and did not add Qi2 magnets or mmWave support on the base model.

The phone starts at $899.99, includes a 4,300mAh battery, 12GB RAM, and ships with One UI 8.5 on Android 16.
