Most insiders currently expect Samsung’s Galaxy S26 series to maintain the same price level as the predecessors, but the first comprehensive price leak from an EU country points to sharply higher MSRPs across the board. The leaker is usually reliable, but are these leaked prices plausible?

The Galaxy S26 Ultra might become cheaper, while the Galaxy S26 is expected to get significantly more expensive. According to a report, an industry insider disputes these leaks based on retailer data and points to a very different pricing strategy for Samsung’s Galaxy S26 flagship phones.

iPhone users no longer need to look enviously at the souped-up camera flagships from China. From the makers of the Vivo X300 Pro camera kit comes a professional camera kit that transforms an iPhone 16 Pro or iPhone 17 Pro into a real camera, optionally with 10x optical zoom and even a memory card slot. A simple upgrade to the iPhone 18 camera kit is also promised.

It is widely known how the camera of the Galaxy S26 Ultra will change, but now we can see it in large format in a first leaked official promotional poster, in the primary color option purple and without any distracting watermarks.

An official teaser from Samsung has provided the first confirmation of the specific launch date for Galaxy S26, Galaxy S26+ and Galaxy S26 Ultra, which will also include a small surprise in the form of new wearables.

Semi-official renders of the Galaxy S26 and Galaxy S26 Ultra are currently circulating in early images from case manufacturers like UAG. Official cases from Samsung itself are also making the rounds on social media. A prevalent theme is magnets and, consequently, Qi2 charging.

The Galaxy S27 is still a long way off, but the first real clues have just surfaced in a well-known benchmark database and seem to suggest that the first Exynos 2700 tests are already being carried out, albeit with miserable results and strange specs for now.

Several weeks ahead of the Galaxy S26’s launch, new information has emerged about previously unknown features of Samsung’s upcoming flagship phone. In particular, the new AMOLED screen with Privacy Display may not just be more versatile than expected but also deliver improved visual quality thanks to an additional enhancement.

The global Xiaomi 17 launch is fast approaching and will see the addition of a new Xiaomi 17 color option that is not yet available in China, as a leaker has just revealed. He also reveals the colors and all storage options planned for Europe for the Xiaomi 17 Ultra.

2026 might become one of the more exciting years for Apple's desktop and MacBook lineups, as claimed by Bloomberg analyst Mark Gurman in his latest Power On newsletter. He also suggests a quite timely launch of the Apple M6, even though the Apple M5 is just a few months old.

Thanks to several sources, we already know which colors to expect in February for the Galaxy S26 Ultra, but now a European retailer has just revealed all configurations and color options for the Galaxy S26, Galaxy S26+ and Galaxy S26 Ultra. In addition, there are initial indications of the Enterprise Editions and all model numbers in the EU.

Following a recent certification that revealed the most important specs for the successor to the Samsung Galaxy A56, several real-world images have now been released, revealing not only the general design but also a new color option for the Galaxy A57.

This will be a really tough year for Samsung and its Galaxy S26 Ultra, especially considering what Chinese brands are bringing to the table in 2026. Oppo, in particular, could revive Samsung's former strengths with its Hasselblad camera flagship, while also sporting an exciting new look.

Foldables are set to be more exciting than ever this year, as recent leaks suggest. The entry of Motorola and Apple into the foldable tablet market seems to be spurring innovation not only at Samsung but also at Honor and Oppo.
