Overview
- Samsung released teaser videos that point to improved zoom plus brighter, cleaner low‑light photo and video, with fine print noting AI background generation in one clip.
- Multiple reports indicate a Feb. 25 Unpacked reveal with retail sales expected to begin in early March, including tips of a March 11 ship date.
- Leaked images show the Galaxy S26 Ultra with a unified camera island, rounder corners and a retained S Pen, while reports list a 6.9‑inch QHD+ display, a 200MP main camera, faster 60W wired charging and Qi2 support alongside a Samsung‑teased privacy display.
- The Galaxy S26 and S26+ are reported with 50MP main cameras, roughly 6.3‑inch and 6.7‑inch displays, a slightly raised camera island, and batteries around 4,300mAh and 4,900mAh respectively.
- Coverage continues to point to a regional split between Exynos 2600 and Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 chips, with the Ultra widely tipped to be Snapdragon‑led, as a separate leak cites an initial production plan that heavily favors the Ultra at roughly 3.6 million units.
