Galaxy S26's RAM upgrade to bring improved camera performance

In August, we learned that Samsung will equip its next non-foldable flagship smartphone, the Galaxy S26 Ultra, with LPDDR5X RAM that has a 10.7Gbps bandwidth, making it 25% faster than the LPDDR5X RAM with 8.7Gbps bandwidth that’s in the Galaxy S25 series. Well, it looks like the brand will extend the feature to the other two devices in the lineup as well, the Galaxy S26 and the Galaxy S26+. Plus, we have information about the amount of memory these phones will offer.

On X, a popular tipster, @UniverseIce claims that Samsung will use LPDDR5X memory featuring 10.7Gbps speed for the entire Galaxy S26 lineup. It means that the brand will not keep the feature limited to the Galaxy S26 Ultra as the tipster had previously said, and extend it to the Galaxy S26 and the Galaxy S26+ as well. They also say that this is the highest-specification memory that is currently in mass production, and that the memory capacity on these phones will start from 12GB.

In another post, the tipster says that the memory with higher bandwidth will help the Galaxy S26 phones to offer significant improvements in terms of camera performance over the Galaxy S25 Ultra. They have also posted an image highlighting those upgrades. You can check it out below.

As you can see, the faster memory will offer faster switching between various cameras, steadier preview window frame rate, faster image processing, reduced errors with moving subjects when taking portrait images, reduced frame drops while recording videos, lower power consumption, and better thermal efficiency.
