The Galaxy S26 may boast superior 5G speeds.

Numerous recent reports suggest that the Galaxy S26 will be equipped with a Qualcomm chip, most likely the Snapdragon 8 Elite 2. And recently, Qualcomm revealed a new modem, the X85, which may be used in this chip. This gives us insight into the 5G performance of the Galaxy S26.

The Galaxy S26 may boast superior 5G speeds.

Accordingly, the X85 Modem-RF offers download speeds of up to 12.5Gbps and upload speeds of 3.7Gbps. This is higher than the Snapdragon 8 Elite SoC on the S25 series, which offers download speeds of 10Gbps and upload speeds of 3.5Gbps.

Therefore, if the above information is accurate, the S26 will offer over 25% faster download speeds and 5.8% faster upload speeds on 5G networks compared to the S25.

However, there are also reports suggesting that Samsung will equip its Galaxy S26 series with the Exynos 2600 chip, at least in some regions.

Previously, leaker Ice Universe revealed that the Galaxy S26 series will be powered by this new silicon-carbon battery technology, promising many impressive improvements. Silicon-carbon technology stores energy in silicon-carbon instead of rare elements like cobalt, lithium, and nickel, which are difficult to mine and the process is very harmful to the environment. This could bring enormous benefits to the environment.

This technology improves battery life for the Galaxy S26 series while also contributing to increased safety due to a lower risk of overheating.

Leaker @kro_roe on X also revealed that the Galaxy S26 series will support 65W wired fast charging along with a larger battery, an impressive improvement over the 45W charging of the Galaxy S25 series. The company will maintain 25W charging until the Note 10 series introduces 45W fast charging.
