The Samsung Galaxy S26 Plus has reappeared in new renders showing a redesigned camera island, with the phone expected to launch early 2026. The device maintains a similar thickness to its predecessor, the S25 Plus, and the overall lineup seems to have shifted from earlier plans, with some models possibly canceled or delayed.
Leaked CAD render of the iPhone 16 suggests it will feature a slimmer camera island and two new buttons, the Action button and Capture button, while retaining a 6.1-inch screen size. The design is expected to resemble its predecessor, with a vertically aligned main and ultra-wide camera setup and a flash unit outside the bump. The phone may also introduce spatial video shooting capabilities and be powered by the unannounced A18 chip built on TSMC's 3nm process, potentially offering more RAM.
