TL;DR
- Samsung’s Galaxy S26 phones will apparently receive wireless charging speed upgrades for the first time in years.
- The Galaxy S26 Ultra is tipped to get 25W wireless charging while the S26 and S26 Plus are said to offer 20W speeds.
- This would be a notable boost over the 15W speeds seen on Samsung flagships for over five years now.
Samsung’s flagship Galaxy phones have long topped out at 15W wireless charging speeds. By contrast, it’s not uncommon for the best Android phones from rival brands to offer 30 to 50W wireless speeds. Thankfully, Samsung might actually bring a long-overdue speed upgrade.
ET News reports that all Galaxy S26 series models will receive faster wireless charging speeds. The Galaxy S26 Ultra will apparently lead the charge with 25W wireless charging, while the Galaxy S26 and S26 Plus are poised to receive 20W speeds.
