The Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra may have made its first real-life appearance in new leaked photos

Leaked images reveal six color options for the Galaxy S26 Ultra and larger camera sensors, with cobalt violet as the lead color, ahead of Samsung's February launch.

  • X user SaudiAndroid posted images on X showing the Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra in White Shadow with a pill-shaped rear camera island and larger sensors than the S25 Ultra.
  • Leaks have been surfacing rapidly, with a tipster claiming six colourways for the Galaxy S26 Ultra as Samsung prepares for Galaxy Unpacked next month.
  • Leakers say the S26 Ultra will keep the same 6.9-inch display, feature Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 with higher Geekbench scores, and offer wired charging improvements.
  • If Galaxy Unpacked is on February 25, 2026, cobalt violet is tipped as the S26 Ultra's hero shade, with units reaching shelves in early March.
  • Reports conflict on whether the images show dummy units made by accessory makers or final devices, and colourway rumours including an orange variant differ; Engadget plans hands-on coverage soon.
