The Samsung Galaxy S26 series will be officially unveiled in a few weeks. Allegedly official product images have surfaced, revealing the design of the Samsung Galaxy S26 and Galaxy S26+, while the source of the images has also confirmed some of the smartphones' specifications.

Along with the first official product images of the Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra, Android Headlines has also just published purportedly official images of the Samsung Galaxy S26 and Galaxy S26+. The two smartphones are said to look identical apart from their size.

Samsung is making virtually no design changes to the two more affordable models in the series, with the exception of the pill-shaped camera module that now frames the three rear cameras. The narrow bezels, the central punch-hole camera and the flat aluminum frame appear to be unchanged from the previous model. The Samsung Galaxy S26 is expected to be roughly the same size and thickness as the Galaxy S25, but Android Headlines reports a surprisingly light weight of just 137 grams, making the smartphone 25 grams lighter.
 


This would make the Galaxy S26 even lighter than the Apple iPhone Air. However, this claim should be taken with a grain of salt, as the Galaxy S26+ is rumored to be exactly the same thickness and weight as the Galaxy S25+, measuring 7.3 millimeters and weighing 190 grams. Both smartphones are expected to be equipped with the Samsung Exynos 2600 in Europe, but with the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 in some other markets. 

The cameras appear to have been carried over directly from the previous model, as both are said to feature a 50 MP main camera, a 12 MP ultrawide camera, a 10 MP telephoto camera, and a 12 MP selfie camera. The Galaxy S26 is rumored to come with a 6.3-inch display and a 4,300 mAh battery, while the Galaxy S26+ is rumored to have a 6.7-inch display and a 4,900 mAh battery. The Galaxy S26 series is expected to be officially unveiled on February 25; rumors suggest that at least some models will be more expensive, while the Galaxy S26 Ultra is expected to be cheaper.
