Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra tipped for February launch as release timeline shifts

Samsung’s Galaxy S26 launch timeline may be changing again. A new leak suggests the Galaxy S26 Ultra and the wider S26 series will be unveiled in February 2026, with retail availability pushed to March, instead of the earlier January window many expected.

The update comes from noted tipster Ice Universe, who claims Samsung will host a Galaxy Unpacked event in February. That would mark a slight shift from recent expectations but still aligns with Samsung’s longer-term pattern. The Galaxy S22, S23, S20 and S10 series were all announced in February, with sales beginning weeks later.

Earlier reports from South Korea had pointed to a late January announcement and February sales, mirroring the Galaxy S25 cycle. The confusion appears to stem from internal changes to the lineup, including reports that Samsung may have dropped or delayed the Galaxy S26 Edge, which was rumored to replace the Plus model.

If the latest information holds, Samsung will return to a familiar rhythm: announce in late February and ship in March. For now, no exact dates have surfaced, but the Galaxy S26 Ultra’s debut looks set for early 2026 rather than the start of the year.
