• A leaker has suggested that Samsung won’t adopt an under-display selfie camera in the Galaxy S26 series.
• They add that Samsung is struggling to improve the cost and ‘other aspects.’
• This comes as the Galaxy maker is expected to adopt the tech in its Galaxy Z Fold 7 later this year.

Samsung has offered an under-display selfie camera on its Galaxy Z Fold devices since 2021’s Galaxy Z Fold 3. This camera is nigh-on invisible to users but offers inferior image quality compared to conventional selfie cameras. We previously heard rumors that this camera could come to a future Galaxy S model, but a new leak suggests otherwise.

Korean tipster Yeux1122 reports that Samsung was scheduled to bring an under-display selfie camera to the next Galaxy S model (presumably the S26 Ultra) but is struggling to improve the cost and “other aspects.” They add that the Galaxy maker is now expected to postpone the adoption of this tech.
