Leaks suggest the Galaxy S26 Ultra could jump to 60W wired charging, up from 45W on the S25 Ultra. Not groundbreaking, but a much-needed improvement.

Wireless charging could also get smarter. After the awkward Qi2 setup on the S25 Ultra that required a case for magnetic alignment, rumors say Samsung may finally add built-in magnets to first-party accessories across the entire Galaxy S26 lineup.

Charging speed and wireless convenience shouldn’t still be a compromise on a $1,000+ phone. But does this actually matter to you, or is it too little too late?

00:37on all S26 models, not just the Ultra, fingers crossed.
00:41Because honestly, it's about time. When I reviewed the S25 Ultra last year,
