I won’t miss the Titanium Galaxy S26 Ultra

3 February 2026 at 17:56

Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra will launch soon, and it is expected that this flagship will not come with titanum frame, which may not be a big deal for the majority of customers. Here’s a history lesson of this short-lived titanium reign.

In 2023, Apple released iPhone 15 Pro models, the first in line to use a titanium design. Titanium, known for its strong and lightweight composition, is becoming the perfect choice for the next-gen iPhone.

The company followed this design practice with the iPhone 16 in 2024. However, the iPhone 17 Pro made it obsolete, returning to aluminum alloy.

Apple said the new design is space-efficient and is more thermal performance-friendly, but there was a twist. The new design consists of a plateau, which enables Apple to shift some important electronic components inside, making space for a larger battery life.

There is a reason we are taking this crash course: In the following year of Apple’s Titanium debut, Samsung launched the Galaxy S24 Ultra, with a titanium body, the first ever among Galaxy devices. In 2025, Samsung launched the S25 Ultra with the same composition. Yet reports are indicating that Samsung is likely to close a chapter on titanium, similar to Apple.

Early leaks about the design suggest that the Galaxy S26 Ultra will return to aluminum. As you should know, Samsung has been using this material all the way to the S23 Ultra.

Following Apple’s trend, this year should be the time for Samsung to do the same. However, Apple’s decision was justified through its spec upgrade, but Samsung may struggle on this front. Especially the battery, which may remain at 5,000mAh.

So, what could be the difference maker here? Three things: an aluminum frame may help the company to improve the frame molding and reduce frame borders around the bezels for a sleek look. The second is to produce a more vibrant color than the Galaxy S25 Ultra. Third could be a better heat dissipation system for better thermal management.

This news remains unconfirmed, but press renders leak are in favor of excluding this design trait at least from this new smartphone.

I’ve held the Galaxy S22 Ultra, S23 Ultra, S24 Ultra, and S25 Ultra. The latter phones bring a more premium finish and a better in-hand experience than the former two. However, that’s the only thing that separates the S24U and S25U from their predecessors.

Ultimately, consumers won’t mind holding an aluminum Galaxy S26 Ultra if Samsung can justify removing the titanium and adding important hardware upgrades.

Samsung Galaxy S25 series stock enters reverse countdown

2 February 2026 at 21:26

It’s been a year since the Samsung Galaxy S25 series entered sales, and after shipping millions of units worldwide, the lineup’s stock has started a reverse countdown.

It’s always a good time to buy a Galaxy device right before the launch of its successor. Samsung customers know this strategy and wait until the last moment to turn this situation into an opportunity.

The reason behind this thinking is based on the price discounts on the outgoing model. Hence, the company doesn’t want to keep selling the old unit in the face of a new release. Now, Samsung is emptying its inventory of the Galaxy S25 series.

The change has appeared on the online order page of the base and the Plus variants. As some of the color options are already out of stock. Among these, the 128GB variant is receiving extra attention, with its three online store colors – Mint, Icyblue, and Silver Shadow- no longer available. Yet, the online exclusive colors of the Galaxy S25 series are still in stock.

The same changes are also observed on the locked model for at least two color variants. However, this scenario remains irrelevant to the S25 Ultra, as all of its versions are still open for orders, at least for now.

This is a completely usual practice for the phone maker, as it phases out the existing stock of the concurrent flagship phones. Samsung may restock the outsold models, but it remains highly doubtful.

On the other hand, a teaser leak has confirmed that the Galaxy S26 series will launch on February 25, 2026. Given this revelation, Samsung may drain the stock further as we near the next Unpacked event. Still, if you want to sweep a unit of the Galaxy S25, S25+, or S25 Ultra, this is the best time for you to advance with the existing discount.
