This unique purple tone presents a rich layer of luster under different light angles. Combined with the smooth texture of the glass back, it demonstrates Samsung’s delicate craftsmanship in color aesthetics.
In addition to cobalt purple, the Galaxy S26 Ultra will also be available in black, silver shadow, sky blue and pink gold.

In terms of storage space, the Galaxy S26 Ultra will start from 256GB, with options up to 1TB, and the memory is expected to be equipped with 16GB.

Facing the pressure of price increases, Samsung seems to have chosen to persuade consumers to pay for it through SoC upgrades, camera innovations and new display technologies. Whether the market can accept this wave of price adjustments remains to be verified by sales data after the new machine is officially released.
