TL;DR<\/p>\n

The launch date for the Galaxy S26 series has leaked.
\nSamsung is now expected to launch its 2026 flagships at Unpacked in San Francisco on February 25.
\nThe leaked information aligns with earlier reports of a delayed launch for the series.<\/p>\n

A new report from Korean outlet Money Today<\/a> (via Jukan on X<\/a>) claims that Samsung will launch the Galaxy S26 series<\/a> at an Unpacked event in San Francisco on February 25, 2026. The company has yet to officially confirm the date, but industry sources cited by the publication indicate that Samsung has begun preparations for the launch.<\/p>\n

If the leaked Galaxy S26 launch date is accurate, this would mark Samsung\u2019s first San Francisco-based Galaxy S event since the launch of the Galaxy S23 series in 2023.<\/p>\n

An official familiar with Samsung\u2019s plans reportedly told Money Today (machine translated), \u201cSamsung is preparing for the San Francisco Unpacked event, its first in three years since the S23 in 2023. Since San Francisco has emerged as a center of AI technology, it is the optimal location for Samsung, which has ushered in the AI smartphone era, to hold its event.\u201d<\/p>\n

The reported February 25 timeline solidifies previous rumors<\/a> of a delayed launch for the Galaxy S26 series. Samsung\u2019s usual Unpacked event typically takes place in late January or early February. The Galaxy S25 series was announced on January 22, 2025. However, previous reports noted that the new flagships could see a slight delay owing to internal adjustments to the lineup.<\/p>\n

According to the report \u2014 and this is something we\u2019ve been hearing for a while now \u2014 Samsung initially considered replacing the base Galaxy S26 model with a new \u201cPro\u201d variant and introducing an \u201cEdge\u201d version instead of the traditional Plus model. However, following the reception of the Galaxy 25 Edge, Samsung is said to have decided to retain the familiar trio: Basic, Plus, and Ultra.<\/p>\n
