Pictures of Samsung Galaxy S26 dummies have shown up online, and one of the models looks a lot like what the Apple iPhone 17 Pro is rumored to look like.
Shared by @SonnyDickson, who has an impressive track record, the dummies depict three Galaxy S26 models. While the biggest of the three is undoubtedly the Galaxy S26 Ultra, it’s not clear what the first two models will be called.
Apparently, the base model will be called the Galaxy S26 Pro, and the middle model, which is currently referred to by the Plus moniker, will be known as the Galaxy S26 Edge.Â

According to today’s leak, the Galaxy S26 Edge will now have a horizontal camera bar, just like Google’s Pixel handsets and likely the upcoming iPhone 17 Air and Pro. The cameras will still be aligned vertically. The LED flash unit won’t move. This model will have two rear cameras, just like the Galaxy S25 Edge.
There’s also a circular depression on the rear, hinting that the phones will have magnets for native Qi2 wireless charging.Â
Lastly, unlike Galaxy S25 variants, the new models have a camera island. An earlier rumor said that the Galaxy S26 Ultra would feature a bump to accommodate the improved main and telephoto cameras.
Samsung seems to be cautious here by reserving the biggest change for the Galaxy S25 Plus’s successor, and not tinkering too much with the design of the Galaxy S26 Ultra to avoid alienating customers. At the same time, the Galaxy S26 Edge’s design will help it retain customers who are tempted by horizontal camera islands.
