"The S26 and S26+ are each $100 more expensive than their predecessors (the RAM shortage isn't exactly helping to keep prices down). They start at $900 and $1,100, respectively, for variants with 256GB of storage."
"Samsung has tweaked the design a bit this time by rounding the corners to align them more with the S26 Ultra's look. The base model has a slightly larger display than the S25 at 6.3 inches, though the S26+ still has a 6.7-inch screen (albeit with a higher resolution than the S26 can handle)."
"The camera modules are the same as last year, but Samsung is aiming to supercharge them with upgrades elsewhere, such as ProScaler image upscaling and an MDNIe chip that's said to greatly improve color precision. There's also a video stabilization feature that tries to keep the horizon level while you're following a moving person or pet."
Samsung announced the Galaxy S26, S26+, and S26 Ultra at its Unpacked event, along with Galaxy Buds 4 and AI updates. The S26 and S26+ are priced $100 higher than predecessors at $900 and $1,100 respectively, attributed to RAM shortages. Design changes include rounded corners matching the Ultra model. The S26 features a 6.3-inch display with 4,300mAh battery, while the S26+ maintains a 6.7-inch screen with higher resolution. In North America, China, and Japan, both models use Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 chipsets instead of Exynos processors. Camera improvements include ProScaler upscaling, MDNIe chip for color precision, horizon-level video stabilization, and Object Aware Engine for enhanced skin tone and hair rendering.
