Samsung\u2019s Galaxy S26 launch is officially set for February 25th<\/a>, but that still leaves us with two weeks of leaks and speculation until the big reveal. Thankfully, today\u2019s rumors sounds pretty positive. Despite some not-so-great rumors surrounding this year\u2019s pricing<\/a>, it seems like Samsung could still provide its usual storage upgrades for early adopters at launch \u2014 component shortage be damned.<\/p>\n As spotted by the folks at WinFuture<\/a>, Samsung\u2019s German teaser site<\/a> for this year\u2019s Unpacked includes the promise of \u201ca storage upgrade worth up to \u20ac200\u201d when pre-ordering the Galaxy S26. The company\u2019s UK website<\/a> makes the same promise, along with an even clearer footnote: anyone pre-ordering will score a 512GB model for the price of the 256GB variant. And without a specific lineup of models mentioned, it appears as though this benefit extends to the Galaxy S26, S26+, and S26 Ultra.<\/p>\n Now, of course, here in the US, our teaser site isn\u2019t quite so detailed. While you can currently follow through on Samsung\u2019s reservation process<\/a> \u2014 complete with a $30 credit and \u201cup to\u201d $900 in additional savings \u2014 the US site lacks the same amount of details as those various EU-centric URLs. That doesn\u2019t necessarily mean North American shoppers will lack the ability to get a free storage upgrade when pre-ordering, but it does mean we\u2019ll have to wait until February 25th to find out exactly what options Samsung has available at checkout.<\/p>\n Samsung\u2019s German Unpacked site includes another tidbit of information as well: an expiration date for this pre-order promotion. These offers appear to kick off on February 25th following the unveiling of the S26 series and run through March 10th. That hints at a Wednesday, March 11th date for general in-store availability, exactly two weeks after Unpacked. Obvious launch date as that may be, it\u2019s great to know would-be S26 owners will have their devices in just about a month.<\/p>\n More on Samsung:<\/p>\n
