Save up to $380: Amazon’s Prime Day sale means you can get some big discounts on Samsung’s Galaxy S26 models, including the base S26 ($230 off), the S26 Plus ($340) and the S26 Ultra ($380 off). These prices on Samsung’s latest Galaxy phones are even lower than what we saw in the first two of days of the Prime Day sales. But we don’t know how long they’ll stay this way, so act fast if you’re looking to upgrade your Android phone.
Prices for all three S26 models are lower than the first day of Amazon’s Prime Day sale based on our CamelCamelCamel tracking. On June 23, the S26 was $700, the S26 Plus was $800 and the S26 Ultra was $950.
CNET expert David Lumb reviewed the S26 and praised the fun AI tricks. If your current phone wheezes every time you multitask, this $215 discount on the S26 is the perfect excuse to snag one.
Fueled by the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 processor, the Galaxy S26 features Android 16, a 6.3-inch vivid AMOLED display and a 120Hz refresh rate for a smoother experience when streaming, gaming or video chatting. AI tools like Photo Assist help you enhance your shots within seconds.
Though Lumb notes the S26’s 4,300 mAh battery is slower to charge and has a smaller battery capacity — especially compared to the Google Pixel 10A and the Motorola Edge — his expert opinion is that the S26’s software and AI bells and whistles “make it a standout flagship for 2026.”

Alternatives you might like
Although the S26 is known for its display, AI, camera and battery, its steep price may be a deterrent for many buyers. And, as mentioned above, the $424 Google Pixel 10A and $550 Motorola Edge, with its faster charging, impressive camera and lower price, can be good alternatives to the S26. Take your pick, keeping your budget and desired specs in mind.
