Samsung's Bold Move: A Design That Echoes Apple!

Get ready for a shocking reveal! Recent leaks have shown that the upcoming Galaxy S26 Edge is set to sport a strikingly similar design to Apple's iPhone 17, while also integrating the innovative Qi2 magnets.

Created by the renowned leaker @OnLeaks, the latest renders—based on precise CAD files—depict a radically redesigned Galaxy S26 Edge. This new look features a sleek full-width camera module, although it conceals just two cameras expertly positioned on the far left side.

Sleeker, But at What Cost?

Rumors suggest the Galaxy S26 Edge will measure in at a remarkable 158.4 x 75.7 x 5.5mm, making it even thinner than its predecessor, the Galaxy S25 Edge. However, with a camera bump that protrudes a hefty 10.8mm, the phone’s elegant slimness might take a hit. That bump is nearly the same thickness as the phone itself—definitely a design compromise!

Qi2 MagSafe Technology—A Game Changer!

Excitingly, insiders report that Samsung is finally embracing Qi2 technology for its Galaxy S26 series, hinting at a future of enhanced wireless charging capabilities. Although you won't see these magnets on the surface, their strategic placement will enable accessories to align seamlessly with the phone—making life easier for users.

Confusion About Names: Pro or Edge?

Interestingly, there was a brief mention that the Galaxy S26 Edge might actually be dubbed the Galaxy S26 Pro, with a base model expected as well. This initial report was quickly pulled, but it certainly raises questions about the final naming conventions. What’s clear is that the Pro model is gaining support from multiple sources!

Your Take on Samsung's New Vision?

With Samsung marching forward with a design that's reminiscent of Apple, enthusiasts are left wondering what this means for the Galaxy lineup. Are you excited about the sleek visuals and upgraded features? Or do the parallels with the iPhone leave you cold?
