References to “Super fast wireless charging” have been discovered in the source code of One UI 8.5, indicating a notable enhancement for Samsung’s forthcoming Galaxy S26 series. This new capability may enable the S26 Ultra to support 25W wireless charging, while the S26 and S26 Plus are expected to reach approximately 20W. This improvement could cut charging durations by up to 40%, though Samsung has yet to officially verify the precise speeds. The One UI 8.5 source code had previously referred only to “Wireless charging” and “Fast wireless charging,” which corresponded to 5-10W and 15W, respectively. The addition of “Super fast wireless charging” hints at a significant enhancement on the way. Samsung has been gearing up for Qi2 compatibility on the S26 series, with new Qi2 wireless chargers already released in the U.S. Although these speeds may not rival the 50W wireless charging observed in other flagship models like the OnePlus 15, they mark a considerable upgrade for Samsung’s range. Furthermore, leaked wallpapers indicate that the Galaxy S26 series might be available in six colors: Mint, Coral, Black, Violet, Silver, and Grey.
