Samsung is approaching the date of the upcoming Galaxy Unpacked event, as there is only more than a week left until the official announcement. So far, the company has only hinted at its readiness to launch new smartphones and wearable devices, while leaks revealed the preparation of three phones from the Galaxy S26 series, along with two Galaxy Buds 4 headphones.
Samsung won’t officially launch the Galaxy S26, Galaxy S26 Plus, and Galaxy S26 Ultra before February 25, however one of the devices has appeared for sale online ahead of schedule. The device was announced on Craigslist as the Galaxy S26 Ultra, and images of it later spread across the X platform.
Although the pictures appear to be largely real, it has not been conclusively confirmed that the device will be offered for $1,650 as was rumored. According to available data, it does not appear that the phone shown is the Galaxy S26 Ultra, nor even a final commercial version.
The seller likely offered a test version of the Galaxy S26 Plus instead of the Ultra model. Recent leaks indicate that the color shown in the images will be officially available under the name Black. This color appears to be gray in the Galaxy S25 Plus, and is similar in tone to the Galaxy S25 Edge.
