Samsung just revealed spare part pricing for the Galaxy S26 series and it’s more expensive than last year’s phones.

Galaxy S26 spare part cost in India shows the baseline screen replacement for the regular S26 surfacing at Rs 7,640, which is Rs 1,490 higher than what the S25 screen cost at launch.

The Plus model follows the same trajectory. The S26+ main screen now costs Rs 10,340, up from Rs 8,400 for the S25+, which is Rs 1,940 more.

Worth noting that the Plus actually gets a smaller price hike on its frame compared to the base model, which shrinks from Rs 3,460 to Rs 3,690. But the Ultra is where things get uncomfortable.

The Galaxy S26 Ultra screen repair clocks in at Rs 14,760. Last year, it was Rs 11,950 for the Galaxy S25 Ultra. That’s Rs 2,810 more for the same repair scenario; probably, the Privacy Display upgrade is making the difference.

The motherboard replacements are equally brutal. A 256GB motherboard for the S26 Ultra will set you back Rs 44,640 compared to Rs 37,150 for the S25 Ultra. Meanwhile, the 1TB variant jumps to Rs 53,850 from Rs 46,060, a Rs 7,790 climb.

The Ultra uses a Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 chipset, and it has that new Privacy Display tech that Samsung spent five years developing. Those components cost money, but the base S26 and S26+ don’t get the Privacy Display.

The S26 Ultra battery now costs Rs 3,030 versus Rs 2,440 for the S25 Ultra. The base S26 battery actually costs less than the S25 battery, which is the only part that got cheaper year over year.

The S26 has a Rs 570 increase for the frame, and the S26+ sees a Rs 270 bump. However, things got better for the Galaxy S26 Ultra due to preferring Aluminum over Titanium; frame drops from Rs 6,740 to Rs 4,660.

The phones go on sale March 11, and people who pre-ordered are locked in.
