nullNo, the Galaxy S26 Ultra doesn't have built-in magnets like iPhones with MagSafe. But there's an easy workaround: get a magnetic case.

What Samsung built in:

The phone supports 25W wireless charging, up from 15W on the S25 Ultra. It works with any Qi wireless charger, but without magnets, you manually position the phone and hope it stays centered.

The case solution:

A MagSafe-compatible case adds the magnets the phone lacks. With one, chargers snap into place, car mounts hold securely, and battery packs attach to the back.

Good case options:

MagBak is popular because their magnetic shielding doesn't interfere with the S Pen. Spigen's Ultra Hybrid MagFit is a clear case with built-in magnets. ESR makes cases with 1,500g holding force and built-in kickstands. All work with your S Pen.

What accessories work:

With a magnetic case, pretty much any MagSafe accessory works: chargers, car mounts, wallets, stands, battery packs. Belkin makes a 3-in-1 dock for the Galaxy S26 series that charges your phone, Galaxy Buds, and Galaxy Watch together.

Is it worth it?

If you want magnetic convenience, yes. A good MagSafe case costs $30-60 and makes wireless charging and mounting much more practical. If you don't care about magnetic accessories, regular Qi chargers work fine.
