The Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra might keep the same 45W charging speed after all. A tip from a trusted source got many people excited, but new info from a Chinese approval body online has put that excitement to rest.

The Galaxy S25 Ultra uses 45W fast charging, just like the S24 Ultra. Fans have been asking for a faster option for a while. An earlier tip made Samsung lovers happy by saying there would be a jump to 60W charging.

Other reports also popped up online, talking about how long it would take to charge the battery to different levels. They said the Galaxy S26 Ultra could go from 0 to 80 percent in only 30 minutes. That would be a big step up from the last model.

It looks like Samsung does not plan to add 60W charging to the Galaxy S26 Ultra. A Chinese regulatory check has shown Samsung’s upcoming SM-S9480 model with support for 45W charging (10V/4.5A or 15V/3A).

This approval is for the version sold in China, so that country will probably limit the speed to 45W, the same as before. The tipster is still hopeful for 60W charging, so there is a small chance that some places might get it.

Samsung could send out the Galaxy S26 Ultra with 60W fast charging in the main markets in America, Asia, and Europe. It is up to Samsung if they want to offer different charging speeds in various countries.

Besides the approval, a leaked version of One UI 8.5 has also hinted at 60W charging for the Galaxy S26 Ultra. So, there might still be some unexpected news in this ongoing debate about the Galaxy S26 Ultra’s charging speed.

A big increase of 15W would definitely cut down the time to charge the 5000mAh battery. But we need to wait and see if that happens after this leak from the approval. Would you like the Galaxy S26 Ultra to finally come with a better charging speed?

Samsung phone owners need to stay careful. Bad actors are spreading phony links for the One UI 8 Beta program. These tricks aim to steal control of your Galaxy device. Many people fall for them because they do not know better. This leads to their phones getting locked from afar by strangers.

The problem comes from not enough information out there. Samsung runs the One UI Beta Program in just six places around the world. Yet, news about it shows up on sites from many other areas. Fans who follow Samsung closely know where it is open.

But lots of regular users do not, and that puts them at risk. Scammers send out false links to grab login details for Samsung Accounts. They use a tip from someone named TarunVats to do this. Word is that these crooks get the account info through the SmartThings app’s auto-fill feature.

They create special links that lead to a simple “Agree” button. Clicking it gives away your login without needing extra checks like fingerprints, face scans, or one-time codes. Once they have your account, the bad guys can lock your phone without trouble.

This means you cannot use your Samsung Galaxy anymore. The only fix is to erase everything on it, which wipes out any data you did not back up first. From what people say, these scams hit hard in places like Romania and Vietnam. Samsung should use its main social media pages to tell everyone more.

They need to make it clear which countries have the Beta Program. This year, the One UI 8 Beta is just for users in Germany, India, Poland, South Korea, the UK, and the US. It starts with the Galaxy S25 lineup. Keep in mind, where you can get it depends on your phone model, your carrier, and your location.

The right way to join the One UI 8 Beta is only through the Samsung Members app. Samsung never shares direct links for signing up anywhere else. If you see a strange link like that, do not touch it. Tell your friends to watch out, too, so no one else gets caught.

Samsung has quietly added two new affordable tablets to its official website. These are the Galaxy Tab A11 and the Galaxy Tab A11+. The company has not made any big announcement about them yet. But people in the UAE can already pre-order these devices. Both tablets look like good choices for basic daily tasks without costing too much.

From details shared by WinFuture, the Galaxy Tab A11 is the smaller and cheaper option. It features an 8.7-inch LCD display with a resolution of 1340 by 800 pixels. The screen also supports a 90 Hz refresh rate for smoother viewing.

This tablet is thin at just 8 mm and light at 335 grams, making it easy to carry around.Inside, it uses a MediaTek Helio G99 chip, which is an eight-core processor that reaches speeds up to 2.2 GHz. It comes with 4 GB of RAM and 64 GB of internal storage.

You can add more space up to 2 TB using a microSD card. There is also a version that supports 4G for mobile data when Wi-Fi is not available.For photos and calls, the Tab A11 has an 8-megapixel back camera with auto-focus and a 5-megapixel front camera.

The battery is 5100 mAh, enough for hours of normal use. It runs on Android 15 with Samsung’s One UI 7 software.The Galaxy Tab A11+ is the larger model with a screen close to 11 inches. It should have a stronger MediaTek Dimensity 7300 processor that works with 5G networks and goes up to 2.5 GHz speeds.

This one offers more power with 6 GB or 8 GB RAM choices. Storage options go up to 128 GB or 256 GB, and it likely supports microSD expansion too. The cameras are probably much like those on the smaller Tab A11.In other Samsung news, more users are talking about a possible problem with the Galaxy S23 series motherboards.

This older high-end phone line might have a big issue that could cause trouble for many owners.Samsung released the Galaxy S23 series in 2023. It includes three versions: the base model, the Plus, and the Ultra. All of them use the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 for Galaxy chip worldwide, since the Exynos 2300 plan got dropped.

These phones have strong parts, like the 200-megapixel camera on the Ultra. But besides the known green line on the screen, a worse problem is now showing up in different places.Owners of any S23 model are saying their phones suddenly stop working because of the motherboard.

The devices start to slow down a lot and then turn off completely. They won’t start back up.People say their S23 just shuts down on its own. Trying to power it on does nothing. Some think a software update might have caused it. But Samsung support places have not confirmed this.

When taken to an official Samsung repair shop, the fix is expensive. Technicians say the motherboard is dead and needs a full swap. Users end up paying a lot for it. This is not like the green line fix, where Samsung gives free repairs. The company has not said anything about this yet, as it does not affect as many people. But those hit by it feel let down.
