The upcoming Galaxy S26 Ultra is rumored to feature an upgrade that might initially seem minor but could have significant implications. The new model is expected to include faster, thinner RAM, moving from LPDDR5X to a new 1γ (1-gamma) generation. While the speed increase from 9.6 Gbps to 10.7 Gbps might not seem groundbreaking, the physical reduction in RAM size could free up valuable internal space. This could allow for a larger battery, enhancing the phone’s endurance without compromising on performance. The new RAM is also said to be 20% more energy-efficient, potentially extending battery life further. Although the speed of current RAM already surpasses daily needs, this efficiency and potential for a larger battery could make the Galaxy S26 Ultra a standout device in terms of user experience, rather than just a spec upgrade.
Is the Galaxy S26 Ultra’s RAM upgrade more important than it seems?
