Samsung’s next flagship, the Galaxy S26 Ultra, is already making the rounds online, with a fresh leak hinting that it might debut with some notable display upgrades. This new panel could help Samsung make its next gen flagship sleeker while also improving its efficiency. So here’s what you need to know.
Samsung Preps Display Upgrade for Galaxy S26 Ultra
The news arrives from known Samsung leakster Ice Universe. Samsung is apparently planning on using a CoE OLED panel on the Galaxy S26 Ultra. CoE stands for Color Filter of Encapsulation, which is set to bring various upgrades. This new display technology uses a color filter instead of the typical polarizer and switches the standard PDL (pixel definition layer) with a black PDL (via SamMobile).
So how does this help? The different structure of the display panel is thinner, so it allows for improved light transmittance. Apart from this, the screen will also be more power efficient while also offering a higher peak brightness. So the display is not only getting thinner, but also offers longer battery life. Ice Universe also claims that Samsung will apply its latest anti-reflective coating over the Galaxy S26 Ultra’s display.
All of this could allow the South Korean tech giant to make its next top smartphone thinner and sleeker. Even if it skips slimming the device down, the company could use the slightly extra space for a bigger battery. However, rumors still hint at a 5,000mAh battery pack. So Samsung might just make the S26 Ultra a tad bit slimmer, similar to the upcoming Galaxy S25 FE. In related news, the Galaxy S26 Ultra is also rumored to feature Sony’s near 1-inch 200MP camera sensor.
