What to expect from the galaxy s26 series
The spotlight will undoubtedly be on the galaxy S26 trio: the galaxy S26 Ultra, the standard Galaxy S26, and the mid-range Galaxy S26 Plus. Leaked renders suggest a slight redesign across the board, including a noticeable camera bump. The Galaxy S26 Ultra is expected to feature rounder edges, aligning its design with its smaller counterparts.
Key features of the galaxy s26 ultra
Beyond the aesthetic changes, the Galaxy S26 Ultra is rumored to boast some impressive upgrades. A standout feature is the potential inclusion of aprivacy display, capable of automatically concealing content from prying eyes. Furthermore, expect an enhanced display with 10-bit color support, faster charging speeds, and camera refinements. It's shaping up to be a powerhouse of innovation!
Galaxy s26 & galaxy s26 plus: subtle refinements
While the Galaxy S26 and Galaxy S26 Plus won’t undergo a dramatic redesign, they may see subtle improvements. Rumors suggest a slightly slimmer profile and a potential increase in the Galaxy S26's display size to 6.3 inches, up from 6.2 inches on the Galaxy S25. Both models are anticipated to be powered by either the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 or the Exynos 2600processor, depending on regional availability.
New galaxy buds 4 series & ai enhancements
Alongside the smartphones, Samsung is expected to unveil the Galaxy Buds 4 and Galaxy Buds 4 Pro. Leaked images reveal a distinctive new design with metal strips on the stems, moving away from the AirPods-like aesthetic. The standard Buds 4 are likely to be fully plastic, while the Pro models may feature silicone eartips. Finally, expect a significant focus on Galaxy AI, including potential AI-powered photography features and a new Nota AI partnership for image generation.
What won't be at unpacked 2026
Despite earlier rumors, a Galaxy S26 Edge is reportedly off the table, or at least delayed. Similarly, don’t expect to see Samsung’s latest foldables (Galaxy Z Fold 8 or Z Flip 8) or new smartwatches at this event. These product categories are likely reserved for a later launch in the summer.
