Here is What to Expect:
Samsung is expected to launch the Galaxy S26 Series, which will include three main models that follow the company’s usual product lineup structure. The Galaxy S26 is the base flagship model, the Galaxy S26+ is a mid-sized version with a better battery and a bigger screen, and the Galaxy S26 Ultra is the best option in the series, said to have more rounded corners for better ergonomics. Samsung has always offered choices that meet the needs and wants of different customers, and this structured approach is no different.
Samsung’s most recent teasers for its next phone show off some of its most important features and improvements. The “Privacy Display” is a new feature that combines hardware and software to keep screen content from being seen from the side, which improves user privacy. The company noted in a blog post that it took more than five years to build this function and that it involved a lot of engineering, testing, and tweaking.

The announcement talks about Samsung’s newest security features for Galaxy smartphones and stresses how important it is to have robust security to protect privacy. It exhibits how long Samsung Knox has been dedicated to protection at many levels, such as Knox Vault, dedicated security hardware, and Knox Matrix, an ecosystem defence. The new protection goes much farther in keeping this promise by giving consumers privacy at the pixel level and promising both visual privacy and real security.
The event, titled “The Next AI Phone”, focuses on integrating AI to make it easier and more personal to use. Most places will get the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 or the Exynos 2600 as the chipset for the smartphones. There are also rumours that the Ultra variant might charge at speeds up to 60W. There is also proof of a new unified design for the camera module across all three models, which would replace the separate lens cutouts that were used before. All in all, these improvements point to a big change in both hardware and software that will make the user experience better.
