If rumors are true, the Galaxy S26 Ultra is almost certainly going to be released within the next few weeks. The device is likely to offer the lion’s share of new features from the brand, but it could also be a rather iterative upgrade. So, what to do if you want to go big for your next phone?
Well, the obvious option is the Galaxy Z Fold 7. Yes, it’s pricey, but the official Samsung Store has a fantastic deal on the device right now that might just make you consider joining team foldable.

How will the two devices compare?
The main difference, aside from the fact that the Fold 7 has a much bigger display, is that the Ultra will almost certainly feature a speedier chipset and a more advanced camera. These are the two areas that Samsung will most likely focus on for this generation’s upgrades. Although that’s just an educated guess. No actual features or specs have been confirmed for the upcoming Galaxy S26 series.
One of the most controversial aspects of the Fold 7 is that Samsung’s excellent S-Pen is no longer supported on this iteration. That was something we specifically called out on our Galaxy Z Fold 7 review, and it’s something that the Galaxy S25 Ultra notably doesn’t suffer from. If the S-Pen is important to you, then we expect Samsung to still support it on the Galaxy S26 Ultra.
