It is Samsung Galaxy launch season – behold the Samsung Galaxy S26 Series, the Galaxy S26, S26+ and S26 Ultra. This third generation of AI-powered devices introduces “Agentic AI,” moving beyond reactive tools to proactive assistants that anticipate user needs.
Powered by the most intuitive, proactive and adaptive Galaxy AI experiences yet. The Galaxy S26 is designed to simplify the tasks people do on their phones every day. From managing plans and finding information to capturing and refining content, Galaxy S26 reduces the effort and number of steps required to get things done.
The New Standard: Galaxy S26 Ultra
The flagship S26 Ultra introduces the Galaxy Privacy Display, a world-first hardware innovation that uses pixel-level light control to protect your screen from prying eyes in public spaces.
- Elite Performance: Powered by the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 Mobile Platform for Galaxy, featuring a 16GB RAM option and up to 1TB of storage.
- Pro-Grade Optics: A new 200MP Wide Camera (F1.4) captures 47% more light than its predecessor, paired with the new APV video codec for professional production workflows.
- Thermal Control: A redesigned Vapour Chamber with lateral thermal interface material ensures the device stays cool during heavy gaming or 4K video capture.
Proactive “Agentic” AI
The Galaxy S26 series introduces Now Nudge and Now Brief, which analyse context to provide timely support. Whether suggesting a photo to share mid-conversation or summarizing meeting details, the AI works in the background to reduce manual steps. Additionally, the series integrates a choice of AI agents, including Gemini and Perplexity, directly into the OS.
