Samsung’s Galaxy S26 series is reportedly launching at a Galaxy Unpacked event on February 25, 2026, alongside the Galaxy Buds 4 lineup, as confirmed by tipster Evan Blass via an alleged official teaser. The lineup includes Galaxy S26, S26+, and S26 Ultra, arriving later than the S25’s January debut with sales expected March 11.
Galaxy S26 Ultra Highlights
Expect a familiar 6.9-inch 120Hz AMOLED display hitting 3,000 nits peak brightness, powered by Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 (Galaxy-optimized), up to 16GB RAM, and 1TB storage. The quad-camera boasts a redesigned Z Fold 7-style module: 200MP main, 50MP ultra-wide, 50MP 5x telephoto, and 10MP sensor; battery upgrades to 5000mAh with 60W wired (from 45W) and 20W wireless charging on One UI 8.5 (Android 16).
Standard Models
Galaxy S26 features a 6.3-inch display, 4300mAh battery, and Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 or Exynos 2600 (region-dependent); S26+ offers 6.7-inch screen and 4900mAh. Base cameras stick to 50MP main, 12MP ultra-wide, 10MP telephoto across models.
Strategic Shifts
Samsung skips the S26 Edge after S25 Edge’s poor sales, focusing on core trio with slimmer designs and software camera boosts. Official confirmation nears as leaks solidify the late-February timeline.
