Overview
- Samsung released three official teasers highlighting low‑light video, enhanced zoom and “AI phone” neural framing for the S26 series.
- Multiple reports point to a Feb. 25 launch with retail availability around March 11, though Samsung has not confirmed the dates.
- New Evan Blass visuals show the Ultra with a pill‑style camera island, flatter aluminum frame, thinner bezels and slightly slimmer, lighter dimensions.
- Leaked specs suggest the Ultra will use Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 with up to 16GB RAM and 1TB storage, a 6.9‑inch display, a 200MP‑led quad camera, a 5,000mAh battery, and faster charging at 60W wired and up to roughly 25W wireless.
- Several reputable leaks now indicate the phones will lack built‑in Qi2 magnets, and French price sheets suggest €999 for S26, €1,269 for S26+, €1,469 for the 256GB Ultra, with the 1TB Ultra at €1,969.
