  "textContent": "## Camera update for Galaxy S26 series\n\nThe Samsung Galaxy S26 series will be updated with a major update, we hear from Sander. It's not a new security patch being distributed to the Galaxy S26, S26+ and S26 Ultra, but an update for the camera. This will include a major improvement.\n\nThe three smartphones will all get this update, which has an update size of over 750MB. As mentioned, the security patch remains on the April update. The changelog talks about improving the overall stability of features. The camera app is being updated to version 16.5.01.29.\n\nSpecifically, an improvement will be made in taking photos. In fact, before the update, it could happen that you saw something different in the camera app screen, than how the final end result became. That has been addressed with this update, so you also see 'through the viewfinder', what you capture. So the crop no longer differs.\n\nYou will be offered the update as of now. If you have not yet received the notification, you can manually check for updates. You can do this via the software settings of your Galaxy S26 device.\n\nWondering how the S26 series' cameras score? DroidApp has extensively compared the Galaxy S26 Ultra with the Xiaomi 17 Ultra. In doing so, we also extensively reviewed two devices. You can find those below.\n\n  * Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra review: strong overall package, not flawless\n  * Samsung Galaxy S26 review: high-end in a more compact package\n\n",
