Leaked information surrounding the upcoming Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra suggests a significant shift in design and material choices, primarily indicated by its rumored color palette. According to multiple reports citing reliable tipster Ice Universe, the Galaxy S26 Ultra is expected to launch in Black Shadow, White Shadow, Galactial Blue, and Ultraviolet. Notably, the absence of the word "Titanium" in these color names has sparked widespread speculation that Samsung may be moving away from the titanium frame introduced with the Galaxy S24 Ultra, potentially reverting to an aluminum build for its 2026 flagship. This possible change could align with a similar move by Apple for its iPhone 17 Pro models, with potential benefits including improved heat dissipation, a lighter device, and potentially reduced manufacturing costs. Beyond material changes, the Galaxy S26 series is anticipated to bring substantial performance and power upgrades. The Galaxy S26 Ultra is rumored to feature a larger 5,000mAh or even 5,200mAh battery and significantly faster charging capabilities, with leaks suggesting 60W wired and 25W wireless charging. The standard Galaxy S26 is expected to have a 4,300mAh battery with 25W wired and 20W wireless charging, while the Galaxy S26+ may sport a 4,900mAh battery (marketed) with 45W wired and 20W wireless charging. The S26 Ultra is projected to be powered globally by the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 chipset, while the S26 and S26+ might use Samsung's Exynos 2600 in some regions. The Galaxy S26 series is widely expected to be unveiled at a Galaxy Unpacked event around February 25, with retail availability slated for early to mid-March 2026.
