It\u2019s starting to look like Samsung\u2019s next flagship smartphone series is due for a bigger shakeup than we initially thought, as the name \u201cGalaxy S26 Pro\u201d has once again shown up in place of the usual base model.<\/p>\n

Yesterday, codenames discovered within One UI 8<\/a> revealed three upcoming phones planned for the Galaxy S26 series: the usual Galaxy S26 Ultra, the Galaxy S26 Edge, and a new \u201cGalaxy S26 Pro model.\u201d The S26 Edge has been rumored for months to be taking the spot of the usual Plus model, but this \u201cPro\u201d model \u2014 seemingly in place of the standard Galaxy S26 \u2014 was an all-new revelation.<\/p>\n

Get ready to add some smoke to that fire. SammyPolice<\/a> spotted new GSMA listings that seem to echo details originally appeared earlier this month, save for one big change (via Android Authority<\/a>). While the company\u2019s initial branding for model number SM-S942U was simply \u201cGalaxy S26,\u201d a more recent listing \u2014 dated July 29 instead of July 10 \u2014 includes that \u201cPro\u201d moniker. This iteration also includes a \u201c1\u201d after its model number. Other listings include Galaxy S26 Edge and Galaxy S26 Ultra, without a \u201cGalaxy S26 Plus\u201d anywhere to be seen. Both of those listings are older, dated June 23rd.<\/p>\n

Even with more confirmation that the Galaxy S26 Pro is a thing, everything else about it remains a mystery, up to and including where it falls in the lineup. It would seem like this is a replacement for the standard Galaxy S26, just like how the S26 Edge appears to replace the usual Plus model. But the \u201cPro\u201d branding seems odd for a device that starts at entry-level pricing, especially compared to rivals like the upcoming Pixel 10 Pro or iPhone 17 Pro. Similarly, though, a higher-end model would seem to compete directly against both the Ultra and the Edge, and it\u2019s difficult to predict what a third premium iteration on this phone would even look like.<\/p>\n

Of course, all of this just spells out a more exciting product launch for Samsung than usual. And with the S26 Ultra rumored to be getting some long-awaited upgrades<\/a> to both its battery and its charging speeds, it\u2019s sounding like 2026 might be a good time to be a Galaxy fan.<\/p>\n
