The Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra could gain a camera hardware feature seen on older Galaxy devices and rival flagships.

Nevertheless, it would be one way to upgrade the 200-megapixel main camera found on the Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra. And given recent Ultra models in the Galaxy S-series have larger sensors than a lot of older Galaxy phones, greater aperture control could be more noticeable.

Variable aperture is rumored to make an first appearance on a Samsung Galaxy phone later this year, for the first time since 2019.
