Official-looking renders and specs for Samsung’s upcoming Galaxy S26 Ultra have now surfaced online. With Samsung’s Unpacked event expected in late February 2026, these images suggest the flagship will carry forward much of the Galaxy S25 Ultra’s style while refining details and packing top-tier components.

The leaked renders, courtesy of Android Headlines, show the Galaxy S26 Ultra in two colors, Cobalt Violet and black. However, more colors like white, silver shadow, sky blue, and pink gold are rumored to be part of the lineup.

The phone appears to retain a familiar silhouette with a flat 6.9-inch QHD+ Dynamic AMOLED display and minimal bezels around the centered punch-hole camera. Around the edges, flat sides and rounded corners give it a clean look.

Refined look with familiar flagship specs

One of the most noticeable design changes is the rear camera layout. Rather than separate camera circles, the Galaxy S26 Ultra uses a camera island with a vertically aligned quad-camera setup and an LED flash beside it.

It is expected to feature a 200MP main camera, paired with a 50MP ultrawide lens, a 10MP telephoto unit, and a 50MP periscope telephoto camera. There’s a 12MP camera on the front for taking selfies, though other camera details remain unclear for now.

The leaked renders also include an S Pen stylus, and the phone will be powered by the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5, along with a 5,000mAh battery and 256GB of storage.

Other notable details from the report include Android 16 with One UI 8.5 out of the box, and overall body measurements of approximately 163.6 x 78.1 x 7.9mm, weighing around 214 grams.

The display and internal hardware suggest Samsung is focusing on iterative refinement rather than radical redesign this time. Meanwhile, Samsung has already confirmed the Privacy Display as a key highlight, while earlier leaks suggest support for 60W charging.

A formal reveal is expected on February 25, where Samsung is also expected to introduce the Galaxy Buds 4 and Galaxy Buds 4 Pro.

iPhone Air 2 leak points to a smaller Dynamic Island and upgraded cameras
Apple's iPhone Air 2 may bring a cleaner display and new ultra-wide camera
iPhone Air in hand

Apple's second-generation iPhone Air is beginning to take shape, and if the latest supply chain report is accurate, the company isn't simply refreshing the hardware. Instead, it appears to be refining the formula that made the first iPhone Air stand out. According to analyst Jeff Pu, the iPhone Air 2, expected to launch in early 2027, will retain its slim profile while introducing a smaller Dynamic Island, an upgraded camera system, and Apple's next-generation silicon.

Unlike the Pro models, which often chase headline-grabbing camera upgrades or new materials, the Air lineup appears to be evolving through careful iteration. None of the rumored changes are individually revolutionary, but together they suggest Apple is addressing some of the biggest compromises of the original device.

Galaxy S27 Ultra price hike looks unavoidable as component prices continue to spiral
Higher RAM, storage, and processor costs could hit the Galaxy S27 Ultra
Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra

The Galaxy S27 series is still several months away, but the first price hike rumor has already arrived. According to tipster kro on X, the Galaxy S27 Ultra could cost up to 150,000 won more than its predecessor in South Korea, which works out to around $104.

Of course, a Korean price increase does not guarantee an identical hike in the US or other markets. However, the claim is not difficult to believe considering Samsung’s recent warnings about rising component costs.
