Samsung Galaxy S26 lineup is gearing up for an official debut in February 2026, but ahead of the launch, we’ve got fresh details about how the new models will look, thanks to insider intel. The series this time will include the Galaxy S26 Pro (which takes over as the direct replacement for the standard Galaxy S26), the premium Galaxy S26 Ultra, and the redesigned Galaxy S26 Edge. Each model brings a distinctive design shift compared to its predecessor, so let’s break them down one by one.
Galaxy S26 Pro: Raised Camera Module
The Galaxy S26 Pro is set to replace the vanilla version in Samsung’s flagship range, and the leaked renders confirm a noticeable change. Instead of the flush-back design seen on the S25, the new model will use a raised camera island, quite similar to what we saw on the Galaxy Z Fold7. Each lens is ringed with a polished metallic accent, giving it a more defined look. The flash has been repositioned to the right of the camera module.
Other design elements remain familiar: flat side rails with a matte finish, slightly rounded corners, and power and volume buttons on the right frame.
Leaked Specifications for Galaxy S26 Pro:
Thickness: 6.7mm
Display: 6.27-inch AMOLED with slim bezels, 120Hz refresh rate
Processor: Snapdragon 8 Elite 2 (3nm) or Exynos 2600 (2nm)
Memory: Up to 12GB RAM, 512GB storage

Battery: 4,300 mAh with 45W wired charging
Extras: Qi2 magnetic wireless charging
Galaxy S26 Ultra: Subtle Design Refinements
Next in line is the Galaxy S26 Ultra, which maintains its heritage of being Samsung’s most feature-packed flagship. The Ultra also sports a raised camera section, fitted with three prominent sensors—one of which is the rectangular periscope zoom lens. A fourth sensor and laser autofocus unit sit to the right, separated by the LED flash.
The biggest tweak is in its silhouette: while still squarish, the edges are less boxy than the S25 Ultra, making for a slightly more refined aesthetic without straying too far from the Ultra identity.
Leaked Specifications for Galaxy S26 Ultra:
Dimensions: 163.4 × 77.9 × 7.8 mm

Galaxy S26 Edge: iPhone-Inspired Design
Perhaps the boldest redesign in the lineup, the Galaxy S26 Edge will reportedly replace the “Plus” variant, officially joining Samsung’s core flagship family. What stands out immediately is its massive horizontal camera bar that runs across the phone’s width, a design reminiscent of the upcoming iPhone 17 Air and iPhone 17 Pro. The bar slightly protrudes, accommodating the large sensors without making the rest of the body too thick.
Overall, the Edge has a sleek, thinner build compared to the Ultra or Pro, with a more futuristic vibe.
