January is knocking, and the Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra leaks are starting to get bigger. We have already seen reports highlighting the kind of specifications the phone could offer, the cameras it may feature, and the design it might adopt. Now, reports have surfaced showing two Galaxy S26 Ultra dummies on video, and they appears to confirm many details about the upcoming device.

Posted by OnLeaks on X, the video shows alleged dummy units of the Galaxy S26 Ultra in two colourways, black and white. There are several key details that can be confirmed through this video, including the placement of the S Pen, which now sits in the extreme corner, right along the curvature.
We also see a redesigned camera module on the phone, which is reminiscent of the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 7, as the camera lenses now sit on a camera island rather than being placed individually. That said, a lot remains similar to the Galaxy S25 Ultra, including the curved corners, the flat black back, and the flat display. So, there does not appear to be a major redesign, barring the camera module update and the shift in the S Pen’s placement.

What more do we know about the Galaxy S26 Ultra?
Reports so far suggest that the phone could be powered by the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 chipset, Qualcomm’s latest and greatest, and it may not get an Exynos counterpart from Samsung, which could instead be reserved for other models. We are also expected to see a quad camera setup on the S26 Ultra. Based on the leaks seen so far, it remains to be seen whether Samsung will continue with two telephoto lenses like before or introduce a surprise new lens.
