Samsung's highly anticipated Galaxy S26 Ultra is slated for an unveiling at the Galaxy Unpacked event on February 25, 2026, with sales expected to commence in early March, possibly by March 11. The device is rumored to bring a host of significant upgrades over the S25 Ultra, making it a noteworthy launch for the Indian audience. Key improvements include a new Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 'For Galaxy' chipset, promising enhanced performance and power efficiency. The display is also set for an upgrade with Samsung's latest M14 OLED panel, potentially featuring a 'Privacy Display' function and brighter visuals, possibly reaching up to 3,000 nits peak brightness. Camera enthusiasts can look forward to improvements in photography, with leaks suggesting wider apertures for the 200MP main camera (f/1.4 from f/1.7) and the 5x telephoto camera (f/2.9 from f/3.4), allowing for better low-light performance. A potential upgrade to a 12MP 3x telephoto lens is also on the cards. The S26 Ultra is rumored to receive a substantial boost in charging speed, moving to 60W wired fast charging, a considerable jump from the previous 45W, and 25W wireless charging. The base Galaxy S26 and S26+ models are also tipped to receive 45W wired charging. Design changes, including more rounded corners and a unified camera module, are also expected. Furthermore, the top-tier 16GB RAM and 1TB storage variant may see broader regional availability, including potentially India. The device will likely run on Android 16 with One UI 8.5. Expected pricing in India for the S26 Ultra could start around ₹1,34,999.
