The launch of the upcoming Samsung Galaxy S26 series is approaching, and with it, the leaks about its new features are increasing. Recently, the possible colors of the Galaxy S26 Ultra were revealed, which would include an orange hue, similar to the one featured on the recent iPhone 17 Pro.
According to Android Headlines, the Galaxy S26 Ultra will be available in orange, silver, and gold. The iPhone 17 Pro and iPhone 17 Pro Max models will be available in silver, orange, and blue.
It’s important to note that, so far, these are mockups and not final devices, so final colors could vary. Samsung still has room to make changes before the official unveiling, scheduled for early next year.
What other features would the Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra have?
In terms of design, it is speculated that the back of the Galaxy S26 Ultra will be completely flat, but with slightly more rounded corners compared to the Galaxy S25 Ultra.
The camera module would also present a significant change compared to previous generations.
In this possible new model, Samsung would leave behind the independent modules that protruded individually from the casing, opting for a single main module where three sensors would be integrated: wide angle, ultra wide angle and telephoto lens.
Next to it, two additional elements can be seen; one could correspond to a second, shorter telephoto lens, and the other could possibly house the microphone for video recording.
Additionally, the Galaxy S26 Ultra is expected to come equipped with the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 processor, although there is a possibility that Samsung will use the Exynos 2600 in some regions.
From what we know so far, the display and camera configuration will remain similar to the previous generation, although the addition of new sensors or improvements to the photography section is not ruled out.
