If you’ve been disappointed by some of the latest rumors regarding Samsung’s Galaxy S26 series cameras, the newest report on the matter is unlikely to do much to cheer you up.
Many of the key components needed to get Samsung’s next big thing(s) done are just about ready to enter mass production, according to a fresh Korean media report translated here, which means that a lot of the recently rumored Galaxy S26 Pro, S26 Edge, and S26 Ultra characteristics have been finalized and are no longer subject to change or any last-minute surprises.
I don’t know about you, but this question has been on my mind since the very first Galaxy S26 family rebranding rumor surfaced online, and although a typically reliable leaker did recently claim that the S26 Pro name won’t mean anything, I kept holding on to my hopes that Samsung was preparing. something of note for the sequel to the “vanilla” Galaxy S25.
Unfortunately, those hopes are being shattered. again today, at least as far as camera specs are concerned. Based on whispers around the supply chain, it appears that the Galaxy S26 Pro will pack a triple rear-facing snapper system composed of a 50MP primary sensor, a 12-megapixel ultra-wide-angle lens, and a 10MP telephoto camera with 3x optical zoom while employing a single 12MP front-facing camera for selfie duties.
At least at first glance, that signals absolutely no change whatsoever from the non-Plus and non-Ultra Galaxy S25, and alas, the same goes for the Galaxy S26 Ultra when compared to its own predecessor. That’s right, the S25 Ultra’s 200 + 50 + 50 + 10MP quad rear-facing camera setup is expected to go unchanged on Samsung’s next super-flagship, and predictably (and disappointingly) enough, the same will reportedly be true for the 12MP single selfie snapper on the face of both of these giants.
