The Samsung Galaxy S26+ was officially launched at the Galaxy Unpacked event on February 25, 2026. Positioned as the balanced flagship, it offers the large-screen experience of the Ultra without the bulk (or the price tag) of the S Pen and 200MP sensor. Here is everything you need to know about the newly released Samsung Galaxy S26+.
Samsung has adjusted the pricing in India this year due to the upgrade to 12GB RAM as standard and the integration of advanced AI hardware.
12GB + 256GB: ₹1,19,999
12GB + 512GB: ₹1,39,999
The S26+ features a sleek, redesigned oval island for its cameras, moving away from the individual floating lenses of previous years.
Rear Cameras: 50MP Main (f/1.8, OIS) + 12MP Ultra-wide + 10MP Telephoto (3x Optical Zoom, OIS).
Selfie Camera: 12MP front sensor with a wider 85-degree field of view for better group framing.
Colours: The signature colour for 2026 is Cobalt Violet. Other standard options include Black, White, and Sky Blue.
Online Exclusives: Silver Shadow and Pink Gold are available only on Samsung.com.
Processor: In India, the S26+ is powered by the new 2nm Exynos 2600 chipset (while the US gets the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5). This chip features a prime core clocked at 3.9GHz and an Xclipse 960 GPU for high-end gaming.
Display: A stunning 6.7-inch QHD+ Dynamic AMOLED 2X panel. It supports an adaptive refresh rate of 1–120Hz and reaches a peak brightness of 2,600 nits, protected by the new Corning Gorilla Armour 2.
