February launch for Galaxy S26 Ultra: unofficial press images leak

January has ended, and thus there is indirect confirmation of the rumors that have been circulating for months: Samsung’s flagship series will arrive in February, later than the usual schedule.

To prove this, here comes yet another press leak image dedicated to Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra: the render shows more closely the “new” design of the camera module, and we are sure that in the coming days even more details about the lineup will arrive.

More leak images for Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra: the Camera Phone launch is getting closer

The press image published in these hours (by evleaks) features the upper part of Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra. The device is not shown in its entirety — that has already been covered by the previous renders — but the focus is on the camera module.

Similarly to the current Galaxy S25 Ultra, the device will be the only one in the family with four sensors for the main camera. The arrangement is identical to that of the predecessor, but now a capsule module is introduced surrounding three lenses — previously they were flush with the chassis.

No radical changes, then, but some refinements to liven up the design; this also applies to the shape, now less sharp and square. The colorway is called Cobalt Violet and will be one of the top-line’s novelties.

The launch of the Galaxy S26 series is expected for the February 25 – the date has not yet been officially confirmed at the time of writing. If you want to learn more before the debut, here is our in-depth piece with all leaks so far. Below you’ll find an early draft of the S26 Ultra’s technical sheet.
