    the Galaxy S26 series could not only ditch the Plus model, but could also kill the standard model.
    Evidence found in an internal One UI 8 build suggests a lineup of the Galaxy S26 Pro, Galaxy S26 Edge, and Galaxy S26 Ultra.
    That means Samsung may rename the base model to “Pro” and replace the “Plus” model with Edge.

    Please don’t make it bigger

      Oh it’s gonna be bigger. What’s the point of renaming then?

      Killing the plus is also stupid, imo it’s the best of the 3.

        YES! Best size—not too small for content, not too large for my pockets. I wish the Ultra came with that size too.

        I mean, they gotta stop increasing the size every year or we’ll end up in tablet territory. Just make 2 Ultras in two sizes.

          Exactly! Plus, it’s much cheaper and has most of ultra features like qhd, uwb, 45w etc. only if it had s pen xd

            Personally, I’m OK with the fewer features as compared to the Ultra. I wouldn’t even care about the S-pen that much, even though I’d probably use it sometimes.

            But if I could choose, I’d have the cameras and internals of an Ultra, even at a premium price, and I’d be happy with it too. It’s just that behemoth size that bothers me the most, because I ain’t gonna carry a slingbag or wear cargo pants with massive pockets just to carry that slab. That’s absurd.

    Look i just bought an s25, it has like 7 years of support, i hope the world fixes itself by then and i can get a proper 6 inch phone without sacrificing too much. Am i overly optimistic, yes, but look what else can you do nowadays.
