TVCMALL has compiled the information you need as a mobile accessories wholesaler to anticipate your customers'needs, identify inventory to consider, and review projected market trends for this new Galaxy release. 

 

Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra vs Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra 

 

Overall, the Galaxy S26 Ultra is expected to be a significant upgrade over the Galaxy S25 Ultra, with faster performance, higher brightness and refresh rates, more powerful charging technology, and refined camera hardware.

 

 

Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra vs iPhone 17 Pro Max

 

The Galaxy S26 Ultra isn't intended to be a complete overhaul of the latest Samsung lineup, but it does position itself as a close competitor to the iPhone 17 and 18 Pro Max.

 

 

iPhone hasn't yet released its next lineup, which is typically released later in the year. In typical iPhone fashion, TVCMALL expects the iPhone 18 Pro Max to continue upgrading system-wide features, highlight even more integrated ecosystem details, and feature an even more advanced OLED display than the iPhone 17 Pro Max. We'll be excited to see the Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra vs the iPhone 18 Pro Max showdown when iPhone confirms the 18 lineup's specs.

 

Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra Design

 

The Galaxy S26 Ultra is a more refined version of the S25 Ultra, aesthetically. It builds on the S25's bold look but features a subtle evolution, with improved ergonomics, better material choices, and camera styling that is cleaner than the S25 Ultra's. While these improvements aren't drastic individually, they do add up to a more modernized look and a more intuitive user feel.

 

Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra Camera

 

Samsung appears to have focused on enhancing its already stellar cameras to deliver better real-world photography quality. Its improvements have focused on better low-light and zoom scenarios, and the S26 Ultra sports an impressive quad-camera system.

 

These four lenses have the following breakdown:

 

● 200 MP main sensor: As the main camera, this high-resolution unit is expected to feature a larger sensor or a wider aperture to capture more light and deliver better detail in shadows and highlights. This could be how Samsung plans to improve low-light images while delivering a richer, more dynamic color range overall.

● 50 MP Ultra-Wide: Updated software tuning helps with distortion corrections for sharper panoramas and landscape shots.

● Telephoto Lenses: The S26 Ultra is expected to have dual telephoto zooms, like the S25 Ultra, including a 5x periscope lens and a 3x zoom unit.

● Selfie Camera: The 12 MP front camera hasn't changed much, but it may have a wider field of view for better group selfies and a more natural video call feel.

 

Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra Features

 

The Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra will be slightly taller and wider than the S25 Ultra, with approximate dimensions of 163.6 x 78.1 x 7.9 mm. The S26 Ultra is slightly lighter than the S25 Ultra and features a more rounded frame. Samsung's decision to round the frame slightly helps the frame feel less bulky and lends to more comfortable one-handed usage. 

 

Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra case compatibility

 

The Samsung S26 Ultra dimensions are 163.6 x 78.1 x 7.9 mm, while the S25 Ultra is 162.8 x 77.6 x 8.2 mm. Since the S26 Ultra frame is slightly rounded compared to the S25 Ultra, cases between the two models will likely not be compatible. Customers upgrading to the latest Samsung lineup will also need a new Samsung S26 Ultra case. 

 

FAQs

The Galaxy S26 Ultra is expected to be released in late February 2026. The Galaxy Unpacked event has also hinted at global availability starting in March 2026.

 

What is the price of the Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra?

 

Starting at around $1,299 USD for base storage, the Galaxy S26 Ultra is expected to have pricing similar to recent Ultra releases, but prices have not been officially confirmed yet.

 

Does the Galaxy S25 Ultra screen protector fit the S26 Ultra?
