Renowned Samsung insider Ice Universe shared the RAM details of the upcoming S26 Ultra in a post on X.
He shared that the Galaxy S26 Ultra will have 10.7Gbps LPDDR5X RAM, the same type as the Galaxy S25 Ultra. It’s unclear if the capacity will change as that hasn’t been upgraded since the first Galaxy S20 Ultra in 2020.
Now, 12GB is more than enough, and it’s unlikely that you’ll run out of RAM on your phone under normal circumstances.
But in recent years, competing Android flagships have normalized 16 GB of RAM as a base, and some go as high as 24 GB. So, if the S26 Ultra will indeed have 12GB, it will look underpowered compared to the likes of the Xiaomi Ultra, the OnePlus 15, Google’s Pixel 10 series, and other rivals.
Currently, only the iPhone is still using less than 12GB at 8GB.
