🌌 Galaxy S26 Ultra leaks ramp up as official renders, promo art, and specs break cover 📱
Leaked Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra renders reveal a stunning flat design, slim bezels, and new colors like Cobalt Violet. Check out the latest specs and promo art!
The picture of the Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra is becoming much clearer ✨. Fresh leaks have illuminated both the design and the core hardware of the upcoming flagship 🚀. Android Headlines recently published what appear to be official renders alongside key specifications 🔍, while veteran leaker Evan Blass followed up with a promotional image that corroborates the earlier reports 📸.
🎨 Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra design and colorways exposed 🌈
According to the report from Android Headlines, the Galaxy S26 Ultra is adopting a flat design language defined by slimmer, uniform bezels around an expansive display 📏. The leaked renders showcase the device in Cobalt Violet and Black, giving us a likely glimpse at the final retail finish 💜🖤. The front sports a centered hole-punch camera, while the frame features a flat edge with softly rounded corners, offering a cleaner and more balanced aesthetic than its predecessor ⚖️.
On the back, Samsung seems to be moving away from the floating lens look 🔘. Instead, the cameras are grouped onto a unified island in the top-left corner 🏝️. While the housing still protrudes, the design feels more structured and refined. The renders also clearly show the S Pen, confirming that stylus support remains a core pillar of the Ultra series 🖋️. While we only see two variants here, additional colors are expected upon release 🎨.
Below is the promotional image shared by Evan Blass, highlighting the Galaxy S26 Ultra in that signature Cobalt Violet hue 🖼️.
Hardware-wise, the publication suggests the Galaxy S26 Ultra will boast a 6.9-inch QHD+ Dynamic AMOLED display and launch with Android 16-based One UI 8.5 🖥️. Under the hood, it is expected to run on Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 chipset, starting with 256GB of storage ⚡. The device is tipped to be quite slim at 7.9mm, weighing approximately 214 grams, yet still managing to house a 5,000mAh battery with wireless power sharing capabilities 🔋.
The camera configuration is rumored to be equally impressive, featuring a 200-megapixel primary sensor 📸, a 50-megapixel ultrawide camera 🗺️, a 10-megapixel telephoto lens, and a 50-megapixel periscope telephoto shooter 🔭. A 12-megapixel sensor is expected to handle front-facing duties 🤳.
Samsung is expected to officially unveil the Galaxy S26 Ultra, alongside the S26, S26+, and Galaxy Buds 4 series 🎧, at the Galaxy Unpacked event scheduled for February 25 🗓️.

Note that Oppo has yet to publish an official list of ColorOS 17 supported devices. 📝 So, we had to review the software update policy of each Oppo device to ensure the list closely matches the official one. That means if your device is on the list, it’s almost guaranteed to receive the ColorOS 17 update. ✅
Also, it doesn’t take long to realize that there are no Oppo A-series phones on the list. 🚫 That’s because most of them do not have an official update policy, and to keep the list as accurate as possible, we didn’t include them. That said, some of them may still receive the update. 🤞
We’ll update the list when Oppo makes an official announcement. 📢
