Samsung is going to launch its new Galaxy S26 series next week. The series includes three models – Galaxy S26, Galaxy S26 Plus, and Galaxy S26 Ultra. Even before the official launch, a cheap clone of the Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra has already appeared online.

A video on Instagram shows the clone Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra, which is being sold for only around $72. The video highlights the phone’s design, including the camera island and the wallpaper, making it look very similar to the upcoming Galaxy S26 Ultra.

Despite its premium look, the clone is very different inside. It comes with only 3GB of RAM and 16GB of storage, although it does support 5G connectivity. Its performance and features are far below the real Galaxy S26 Ultra, which makes it clear that it is only a lookalike.

People may easily be able to recognize the clone because premium phones feel different and have better build quality, smoother performance, and additional features. The clone may attract attention because of its design, but it cannot match the experience of a genuine flagship device.

This shows that even before the launch, cheap copies of upcoming phones can appear online. While they may seem tempting because of the low price and premium look, the real innovation and performance will only be found in Samsung’s official devices.

Samsung fans will have to wait until the Galaxy Unpacked event on 25 February 2026 to see the real Galaxy S26 series. Users can register for the event to get special benefits. Stay tuned for more updates about the Galaxy S26 series.
