Summary

TechPicks' top-15 canonical phones still had no photo after the automated Commons backfill (its gate only looks at each Wikipedia article's lead image, which is often a PNG render for recent flagships). These 9 were picked by hand from Wikimedia Commons by exact model title:

Record License File
galaxy-s24-ultra CC-BY-SA-4.0 Galaxy_S24_Ultra.jpg
galaxy-s25-ultra CC-BY-SA-4.0 Samsung_Galaxy_S25_Ultra_2025.jpg
galaxy-s26-ultra CC-BY-4.0 Galaxy_S26_Ultra_lavender.jpg
iphone-17-pro-max CC0-1.0 Silver_iPhone_17_Pro_Max.jpg

oneplus-15 CC-BY-SA-4.0 OnePlus_15_back.jpg
xiaomi-17 CC-BY-SA-4.0 Xiaomi_17_backside_Snow_Mountain_Pink.jpg
oppo-find-x9-ultra CC-BY-SA-4.0 OPPO_Find_X9_Ultra.jpg

Not added:

  • vivo-x300-ultra: the only Commons file is a low-res CC0 "hero shot" that looks like re-uploaded marketing material, so the license can't be trusted.
  • vivo X300s, realme GT 8 Pro, iQOO 13, Pixel 10 Pro XL: no photo on Commons.
  • galaxy-s26: every "Galaxy S26" hit is actually the S26 Ultra.

Closes #1

…ships

Galaxy S24/S25/S26 Ultra, iPhone 17 Pro/Pro Max/Air, OnePlus 15, Xiaomi 17,
OPPO Find X9 Ultra. Each file was picked by exact model title on Wikimedia
Commons, is a JPEG photo, and carries a free license (CC0, CC BY, CC BY-SA)
recorded in image_license with the uploader in image_attribution.
