Samsung Galaxy S26 Plus (S26+) Magnetic Protective Phone Cases

1、When does the Samsung Galaxy S26 Plus come out?

Based on current leaks and rumors about the Samsung Galaxy S26 Plus, Samsung is expected to unveil the Galaxy S26 Plus in early 2026, with retail availability shortly after.

The launch timing aligns with Samsung’s usual flagship release cycle, and early leaks suggest notable upgrades in display technology, performance, and charging efficiency.

With a larger, brighter display and faster wireless charging expected, the S26 Plus is designed for heavy daily use. To support stable, efficient charging, ESR’s Qi2.2 wireless chargers with active cooling are designed to manage heat effectively while maintaining strong magnetic alignment—ideal for long charging sessions at home or at the office.

Samsung Galaxy S26 Plus specs

Design and display:

The Samsung Galaxy S26 Plus is expected to feature a 6.7-inch Dynamic AMOLED 2X display with a 120 Hz refresh rate and excellent peak brightness. Some recent leaks suggest the screen could grow to 6.9 inches, potentially matching the Ultra model. Users can expect vibrant colors, HDR support, and AI-enhanced display features for smoother scrolling, gaming, and video playback.

Key display specs (rumored):

● Size: ~6.7 inches (possible 6.9-inch upgrade)

● Panel: Dynamic AMOLED 2X

● Refresh rate: 120 Hz

Colors:

While not officially confirmed, Samsung Galaxy S26 Plus leaks point to a refreshed color lineup. Likely options include Mint or Jade Green, Coral or Peach, Gray or Silver Shadow, Light Blue or Icy Blue, and Purple or Lavender. Samsung may also offer online-exclusive colors such as Orange, Pink Gold, or Deep Blue, though the most unique finishes are usually reserved for the Ultra model.

Size and thickness:

The S26 Plus is rumored to measure around 158.4 × 75.8 mm, with a thickness between 7.30 and 7.35 mm and a weight of approximately 190–194 grams. This would make it slightly thinner and lighter than many iPhone 17-series rivals, while maintaining a large-screen experience.

Camera system:

The Galaxy S26 Plus is expected to feature a versatile quad-camera setup:

● Main camera: 50 MP

● Ultrawide: 12 MP

● Telephoto: 10 MP, 3× optical zoom (1/3.94")

● Front camera: 12 MPAI-powered image processing is expected to further improve HDR, night photography, and zoom clarity.

Storage

Does the Samsung S26 Plus have an SD card slot for expandable memory? Based on recent Galaxy models, expandable storage is unlikely. The S26 Plus is expected to offer 256 GB and 512 GB internal storage options, with dual-SIM support depending on region.

Samsung Galaxy S26 Plus price:

Current leaks suggest a starting price of around $999 in the U.S. The 512 GB version may reach approximately $1,119. Some reports indicate Samsung could keep pricing unchanged from the S25 Plus, especially as the company refines its Plus lineup strategy.

Samsung Galaxy S26 Plus charging:

The S26 Plus is rumored to feature a 4,900 mAh battery, paired with improved efficiency from next-generation processors. Wired charging is expected to remain at 45 W, while wireless charging may reach around 15-20W with possible Qi2 standard support. This makes ESR’s Qi2.2-compatible magnetic chargers a strong match for fast, stable everyday charging.

2、Should I buy a case for the Samsung Galaxy S26 Plus?

Yes. The S26 Plus features a large display and glass construction, making it vulnerable to drops and scratches. A properly designed Samsung Galaxy S26 Plus case helps absorb the impacts from drops, and raised screen edges reduce screen contact with flat surfaces. For complete protection, pairing your case with a screen protector offers all-around coverage.

With the S26 Plus expected to support Qi2 fast wireless charging, choosing a magnetic case is especially important. ESR’s magnetic cases ensure precise alignment and work seamlessly with ESR’s 3-in-1 Qi2 25W charger for fast, clutter-free charging.

3、Can I charge my Samsung Galaxy S26 Plus without removing the case?

Yes. Every ESR S26 Plus case supports wireless charging and strong magnetic alignment. Samsung phones do not natively include MagSafe magnets, but using a MagSafe-style Samsung Galaxy case adds magnetic functionality, enabling compatibility with magnetic chargers, wallets, and car mounts.

4、What makes the ESR Samsung Galaxy S26 Plus cases different from standard protective cases?

ESR cases are engineered specifically for the Galaxy S26 Plus, combining precise fit, strong magnets, and everyday usability.You can choose from non-stand designs for a clean, slim feel, or cases with a built-in stand for hands-free viewing. ESR’s Classic Hybrid case offers reliable drop protection with reinforced corners while remaining lightweight and comfortable to hold.

5、Will the Samsung Galaxy S25 Plus phone cases fit the Galaxy S26 Plus?

No. Differences in dimensions, button placement, and camera layout mean S25 Plus cases will not fit the S26 Plus properly. Always choose a case designed specifically for the Samsung Galaxy S26 Plus.

6、Is there an ESR wallet case available for the Galaxy S26 Plus?

As of late 2025, ESR does not offer a traditional flip wallet case for the S26 Plus. Instead, ESR recommends a modular setup: a magnetic protective case paired with an ESR magnetic wallet. The wallet holds 1–5 cards, includes RFID blocking, doubles as a multi-angle kickstand, and detaches easily—giving you wallet functionality without added bulk.
