Design
Introducing a new translucent camera island as part of a unified design that looks and feels perfect in any hand.
Our customised processor delivers speed, smooth visuals and performance that keeps you ahead of the game.
AP-driven image processing brightens scenes, sharpens details and reduces noise even in dark environments.
Get quick and easy photo editing by writing prompts using natural language, and Galaxy AI will take care of the rest.

Meet Galaxy S26 and S26+, our powerful AI phones, unified by a single corner radius that flows across every model and feels perfect in any hand.

Our powerful processor, customised for Galaxy
From epic quests to real-time multiplayer, the customised processor delivers blazing speed and powers a customised image enhancer that helps content look clear and vivid. Plus, a 38% boost to the advanced NPU and 23% smoother visuals keep you ahead of the game

Upscale your viewing experience
Witness the full spectrum. Enhanced colour and light representation from our advanced mobile Digital Natural Image engine (mDNIe) technology delivers 4 times better processing precision for richer tones. This results in a substantial boost in graphic performance. ProScaler also gives every image the impact it deserves, thanks to AI processing improvements, providing true-to-life details for an immersive experience

Play longer. Stay cooler
A new Vapor Chamber is seen horizontally. Galaxy S26 plus comes into view underneath and Vapor Chamber is seen dissipating heat more efficiently. It then disappears into the device and then a video plays on the screen.
Stay cool when the action heats up. The redesigned Vapor Chamber and tailored thermal interface material (TIM) support the high-performing customised processor during demanding sessions. By spreading heat more efficiently, they provide up to 29% enhanced heat dissipation for cooler operation.
Further supported by ray tracing and Vulkan optimisation, your device maintains peak performance while watching hours of videos and delivers smooth visuals and lightning-fast rendering without breaking a sweat.

Power up quickly
Your day, uninterrupted. Fast wired charging gets you back to full power in no time – up to 69% charge in around 30 minutes – and keeps you in your flow

Storage for everyday moments
Galaxy S26 and S26+ come with 12 GB of memory and two storage options: 256 GB or 512 GB so you can choose the capacity that fits how you use your phone. Choose 256 GB to keep your favourite photos and essential apps for daily use. Or upgrade to 512 GB if you like gaming, capture hi-res photos often or download larger apps without slowing down your phone.

Clear and bright, even at night
From city lights to candlelight, Nightography lets nights shine so you can capture special moments more clearly.
The next-gen camera system captures a broader dynamic range, ensuring shadows and highlights remain clear and vivid. The advanced AP then provides noise reduction based on individual noise patterns unique to each sensor type, delivering footage that feels natural and cinematic even in low-light environments

Check the specs on our powerful camera system
Powered by ProVisual Engine, the advanced 50 MP camera elevates every shot, enhancing your subjects with smarter detail, richer colour and clarity that keeps up with your imagination

Super Steady Video. Even on the go
Super Steady's new Horizontal Lock feature combines expanded optical angles with gyro and acceleration sensors to recognise the direction of gravity and keep your shots level, even if you rotate a full 360°. Whether you're on rocky trails or chasing your fastest finish, get smoother, shake-free videos every time.

Close. Closer. Whoa
Make every selfie your best shot
Galaxy S26 and S26+'s front cameras now feature an AI image signal processor (ISP) for more natural selfies with highlights and shadows where they should be — true to your natural skin tone and other details such as hair and eyebrows, just as your eyes see them.

Photo Assist.
Studio-level edits. Built in
Get quick and easy photo editing with just a few words and AI. Add objects, such as accessories on photos of your pet by naturally describing the edits you wish to make, and Galaxy AI will realise your vision in minutes

From photos to stickers in a tap
Open Creative Studio and discover a dedicated space to create sticker sets. Mix sketches or photos with text that match your imagination. With a simple text description or a rough sketch outline, Galaxy AI produces the creations. Then, add the set to your keyboard or share it with your friends

Real-time suggestions when you need it

Now Nudge
Powered by Galaxy AI, all-new Now Nudge can pick up on context on your screen and prompt you with helpful shortcuts. It intelligently minimises the steps to your next action and even provides Autofill suggestions.
Photos can be found and sent more easily. If someone asks for pictures from a recent trip, Now Nudge will understand which snaps you'll need and find them for you. It'll then take you to these specific photos in your Gallery, allowing you to select and send in just a few taps.26

Pause
During a text conversation, someone asks for photos from a trip to Seoul. Now Nudge intelligently prompts the user with a Share photos button. When pressed, a search bar with the keywords Seoul photos appears and then a Gallery pop up shows the relevant photos. The user can then view and select photos. Once selected, they can be sent instantly to the friend.

Now Brief
Keep your day simplified with Now Brief. It can now track your day-to-day and understand your habits better than before. Exercise playlist recommendations and reminders about important events, like booking details and special travel moments, are now all available as bite-sized briefs sent throughout the day.

Find it fast and easy
Reservation and appointment details are now just a quick search away, using everyday language. On the home screen, you can now use Finder to search for information such as preparations for an upcoming trip like flight details and reminders or notes you have saved. One search brings everything together helping you to remember where things are.

Bixby. Smart help, always available
Need help fast? Ask Bixby. It’s your personal device controller, now with the power to deliver a guide to help you learn how to use features and adjust settings for added convenience. If it's quick answers you need, it will even search the web for you in response to your natural, conversation-like questions

Privacy by default. Protected by Knox
We’re committed to protecting your information, while providing transparency about how it’s used and shared.

Circle it, find it
Use Circle to Search with Google to find multiple items of a look by simply circling an outfit on your screen, and it will help you find every piece — from tops to footwear and everything in between — all in one search. You can circle it, search it and find the look, all from exactly where you are.
