When that day comes, what devices will we see? In previous months, there was a lot of talk about a Galaxy S26 Edge replacing the usual Plus model. There were also leaks that suggested the base model could be rebranded as the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.androidauthority.com\/samsung-galaxy-s26-series-shakeup-evidence-mounts-3582437\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Galaxy S26 Pro<\/a>. We now know the answer thanks to a leak that came from none other than the phone maker itself.<\/p>\n<p>Don\u2019t want to miss the best from Android Authority?<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/andauth.co\/AAGooglePreferredSource\" class=\"e_rm\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer nofollow noopener\"><img class=\"e_jg\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\"  title=\"google preferred source badge light@2x\"  alt=\"google preferred source badge light@2x\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/1766572210_733_google_preferred_source_badge_light@2x.png\"\/><img class=\"e_jg\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\"  title=\"google preferred source badge dark@2x\"  alt=\"google preferred source badge dark@2x\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/1766572211_278_google_preferred_source_badge_dark@2x.png\"\/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>As we gradually approach the eventual launch of the latest Galaxy S phones, it appears we can expect Samsung to release three new models. Those models will be the S26, S26 Plus, and S26 Ultra, according to a recently discovered PDF document. Spotted by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sammobile.com\/news\/are-galaxy-s26-pro-edge-still-coming\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">SamMobile<\/a>, this document, which contains details related to device promotions, was found on Samsung Colombia\u2019s website.<\/p>\n<p><img class=\"e_jg\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\"  title=\"Samsung Galaxy S26 Plus Ultra Models Confirmed Colombia\"  alt=\"Samsung Galaxy S26 Plus Ultra Models Confirmed Colombia\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/Samsung-Galaxy-S26-Plus-Ultra-Models-Confirmed-Colombia.jpg\"\/><\/p>\n<p>This document appears to confirm that Samsung won\u2019t be rebranding the base model to the Galaxy S26 Pro. There is also no mention of a Galaxy S26 Edge, so it appears that model won\u2019t be at launch either. However, there\u2019s always a possibility that Samsung could launch an Edge device later in the year.<\/p>\n<p>When the Galaxy S26 series becomes available, we\u2019re expecting to see the S26 and S26 Plus with a Snapdragon or Exynos chip (depending on the market). It\u2019s been hinted that the base model will have a 4,300mAh battery, while the Plus could feature a 4,900mAh battery. Leaks have suggested that there may not be any significant camera hardware upgrades for either model. Meanwhile, the Ultra could have a Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 processor, a 5,000mAh battery, and a slightly upgraded rear camera setup.<\/p>\n<p>Thank you for being part of our community.
