Galaxy S26 could have superior 5G speeds

Many recent reports have said that the Galaxy S26 will be equipped with a Qualcomm chip, most likely the Snapdragon 8 Elite 2. And recently, Qualcomm has revealed a new modem, the X85, that can be used in this chip. That helps us know the 5G performance of the Galaxy S26.

Galaxy S26 could feature superior 5G speeds.

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

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

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

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

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

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