Samsung’s forthcoming Galaxy S26 series, anticipated for early 2026, is expected to comprise three models: the Galaxy S26, S26+, and S26 Ultra. This represents a confirmed continuation of the standard, plus, and ultra-premium device segmentation strategy.
Recent leaks from China have surfaced purportedly showcasing screen protectors for the upcoming devices. These images provide preliminary insights into the design language of the new series. Key observations include:
- The potential for significantly reduced bezels on all three models, coupled with a symmetrical design.
- A possible uniformity in screen curvature radius across all devices. This suggests a cohesive family design aesthetic, a departure from prior iterations where the Ultra model featured a less rounded corner design.

Preliminary specifications indicate that the Galaxy S26 series will potentially integrate two different System-on-Chips (SoCs). Depending on the geographical market, the devices may be equipped with either Samsung’s Exynos 2600 SoC or the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5. The launch date is rumored to be February 25, 2026.
