There's a good reason why.

Samsung has been selling a 65W Trio charging adapter for a while now. The headline number there might make you think it can charge your Galaxy S26 Ultra at its full supported fast charging speed of 60W, but that's not the case.
There's a reason why this charger is unable to charge the phone at the full 60W speed, and it also has to do with the fact that the 65W trio adapter serves another purpose entirely.
The 65W Trio adapter only supports fast charging at 45W, 20V, 2.25A, which doesn't meet the requirement to charge the Galaxy S26 Ultra at 60W.
Samsung has clarified that Super Fast Charging 3.0 on the Galaxy S26 Ultra requires 60W maximum output under the PPS or Programmable Power Supply standard.
The important lesson here is that not every 60W or above charger is capable of charging the Galaxy S26 Ultra at its maximum supported speed. PPS range needs to be verified before buying a 60W or above charger. Volts multiplied by Amps in PPS mode should reach 60W, only then can it charge your Galaxy S26 Ultra to its full potential.
There's a specific charger that Samsung sells which is fully compatible with the Galaxy S26 Ultra's 60W charging speed. It's the EP-T6010 model that costs $54.99. The 65W Trio is a triple port charger that can charge three devices at the same time, so despite what that number may have you believe, it doesn't support charging the Galaxy S26 Ultra at 60W.
