Internal testing has shown that Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra’s new 60W charging can fill the battery from 0% to 75% in 30 minutes, reveals Ice Universe. This was tested under laboratory conditions, whatever those were (presumably controlled room temperature). That doesn’t sound particularly impressive for a 15W increase over the Galaxy S25 Ultra. As a reminder, in our review of the S25 Ultra, we saw a 72% charge after 30 minutes.
