    They will stop making phones in general. The price to pay when you can't compete anymore.

          "Chinese brands are preparing an onslaught of smaller devices with top of the line specs for the next few months"

          Which brands? Atleast list the models or brands doing that. I don't remember about any such thing in the recent past except for a single model from Xiaomi. For the brands who haven't launched a single smaller device in the past few years, what made them to suddenly launch smaller devices? If there's no such models launched or any concrete news published by the Chinese brands, how Samsung started to fear?
          Even when posting rumors please do the proper reporting.

            I am a loyal Samsung user who also carries an iPhone. I currently have an S24 and an iPhone 15 Pro. The Galaxy is a better phone hands down. The base model S24 beats the iPhone 15 Pro in every way (except UWB). I have no desire to carry a huge phone. My wife has an S24 Ultra and it has some nice features but not enough for the trade in size. I travel and I’m always on the go. They already killed the Tab S10 and I am super unhappy as I have a Tab S9 and was looking forward to the Tab S10. If they kill the smaller S Series phones, I will go iPhone exclusively.

              Galaxy S25FE, S26+ and S26 Ultra

                Wouldn't the naming be confusing? As opposed to dropping the vanilla S26 wouldn't it be better to rename the S26+ to the vanilla and keep the Ultra? Whatever man.

                    Persicope can be ultra only, certainly if the rumors are correct about 3x zoom 50MP for S25 vanilla.

                    Anyways periscope really needs room to be designed in including battery and like in an ultra body.

                    Wishing a periscope in a really thin small body is bogus and then there is some product seperation too, i mean the ultra can have all its goodies but to make it pro cam only is a big mistake.

                    A pro cam should be standard on all S models.

                            Samsung didn't afraid of karma.
                            remember when they canceled the Note 6, and then they had their karma on the form of the infamous Note 7.

                              If the cameras are as bad as on the S24 Ultra, i'mma pass this one too.
                              The Ultra series went downhill since S22 Ultra. First they downgraded the selfie camera on the S23 Ultra, then they downgraded the zoom camera and the display/body ratio on the S24 Ultra... Now what else could they possibly downgrade?
                              Not to mention that the Note 20 Ultra had the 3D scanner on the back of it, that got removed with the S21 Ultra.

                              They just keep getting worse, tbh... Remember the IR Blaster on the older Notes? I can't even take a pulse reading now on the S23 Ultra. I'm basicaly forced to wear the watch.
                              It's just ridiculous how barebones they've become. No hardware feature left.
                              But, oh well, the S-Pen is a Wiimote now. If it would have been able to be used in VR, as a virtual pointer, it would have been pretty cool. Somewhat useful even.
                              Imagine a Harry Potter game in which you move with the Gear VR controller and actually do the spells with the S-Pen. Like, it can recognize air-drawn shapes, the gestures show that.

                                      Vanilla models should be 155 x 73 x 8mm at max, having a 6.5 inch display.
