Recent reports from Korea indicate that Samsung will officially unveil the Galaxy S26 series on February 25 in San Francisco, with a release expected in March. The Galaxy S26 is set to feature a 4,300 mAh battery, which is a 300 mAh increase over its predecessor. Additionally, the Galaxy S26+ will include support for "3x zoom HDR shooting," while the S26 Ultra will debut a rumored electronically controllable "privacy display" feature designed to prevent onlookers from viewing sensitive information.
The Galaxy S26 Ultra is expected to utilize the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 SoC globally, while the other two models will reportedly be equipped with the Exynos 2600 in select markets. To maintain its competitive stance, Samsung is said to plan to keep the pricing of the S26 series consistent with that of the S25 line.
