Accessories: new magnetic power bank that sticks on the back of the phone;
S-Pen goes into the Ultra's hole only one side (as exterior tip is not symmetric;
Not much to say about Galaxy S26 and Galaxy S26+ - weaker than Galaxy S26 Ultra and without new things;
Ultra has rounder corners, making it even more visually close to smaller lineup models;

Unexpectedly nice Galaxy Buds4 - both regular and Pro versions looks better, smoother, controls are moved to the side of the blade (less chance of unexpected actions).
