  • Dummy unit images reveal the design of the S26 Pro, S26 Edge, and the S26 Ultra.
  • The S26 Edge features an elongated camera module, echoing the rumored iPhone 17 Pro.
  • The S26 Ultra shows a raised platform with three camera rings, while the S26 Pro appears smaller and more compact.
  • The Galaxy S26 series is expected to launch in February 2026, following Samsung’s usual flagship release cycle.

Leaked dummy images of the Samsung Galaxy S26 lineup, comprising the S26 Pro, S26 Edge, and S26 Ultra, have surfaced online, giving us an early idea of the designs Samsung may be preparing. While most specifications remain under wraps, the dummies highlight notable design shifts and introduce new talking points for Samsung’s next flagship generation.

Finally, Actual Qi2 on Samsung Phones

S26 lineup

One of the most striking details is the presence of rings on all three units, suggesting Samsung may finally adopt magnets across the series to support Qi2 wireless charging and magnetic accessories. This could put the Galaxy S26 lineup in line with the Pixel 10, which recently embraced the same standard.

Galaxy S26 Edge Looks Suspiciously Similar to the iPhone 17 Pro 

S26 Edge

The S26 Edge’s dummy unit in particular has sparked debate. Its stretched camera module groups the flash and cameras on the left side, leaving the right side of the housing empty. The resemblance to the rumored iPhone 17 Pro’s design has fueled speculation that Samsung is deliberately moving toward Apple’s aesthetic choices, a move many find unnecessary, given the odd proportions.

S26 Ultra and S26 Pro Get Some Design Changes Too 

Meanwhile, the S26 Ultra appears larger, with a raised camera section that holds three distinct rings in the left. Additional modules, including what could be the telephoto, sit alongside the right area, similar to the S25 Ultra. 

We can also see that the S26 Ultra is more “rounded” than the S25 Ultra on the corners, almost the same radius as the S26 Edge and S26 Pro.

The S26 Pro, by contrast, seems more compact, positioning itself as a successor to the base S25 but without a “Plus” sibling this time around. The design is similar to the S26 Ultra minus the additional lens and sensors on the right.
