Samsung is recreating its Galaxy S26 series, following the Edge’s departure. We’ve heard for months about the killing of the Base and Plus models and the joining of a new Pro and Edge. With Samsung rethinking the Galaxy S26 lineup, fans are looking forward to seeing a charging speed boost in the vanilla model.

It turns out that Samsung may launch its so-called Galaxy S26 Pro without a Pro tag. Rumors revealed a disappointing 25W charging speed, and Samsung should take it to 45W on the Galaxy S26 smartphone.

Galaxy S26 with 45W charging

Faster charging speed on the Galaxy S26 is an urgent requirement. Samsung can’t pass on its 2026 flagship smartphone with just 25W charging. It becomes a must after 45W support on various unexpected devices.

Over the past couple of months, Samsung has launched some mid-range phones with 45W charging speed. It even offered the same treatment to the Galaxy S25 FE, getting a Plus-like large battery and 45W fast charging.

Galaxy S25 has rendered the most odd version among all these phones. The flagship costs a huge $800 and feels outdated due to its battery capacity and charging speed.

The Galaxy S26 could come with a 4,300mAh battery, while the charging speed is yet to be known. Previous rumors hinted at 25W, but it should be replaced with 45W speed to match the Plus model, and the Fan Edition too.

Galaxy S26 Ultra

The Galaxy S26 Ultra could support 60W charging speed, helping the battery to charge from 0 to 80% in roughly 30 minutes. With the same size of battery, the charging upgrade will make a practical impact on user experience.

Samsung has reportedly delayed the Galaxy S26 series launch to March 2026. The late development of Galaxy S26 Plus appears to be the main reason, but the company might have been securing additional time for its Exynos.
