Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra Leaks Reveal Colors, Pricing Plans

Leaked details suggest Samsung’s upcoming Galaxy S26 Ultra will come in familiar colors, while the company works to keep prices steady despite higher memory chip costs.

Samsung has not yet officially unveiled Galaxy S26 Ultra, its next flagship phones. But leaks are already painting a clearer picture of what the Galaxy S26 lineup might look like. Early details suggest familiar color options and little movement on pricing, pointing to a safe, incremental upgrade rather than a major shake-up.

Well-known leaker Evan Blass shared a list of what he claims are the final color options for the Galaxy S26 series on X. Buyers can expect the phones to come in Black, White, Silver Shadow, Sky Blue, Cobalt Violet, and Pink Gold.

It’s a clean, polished set of colors, but nothing too flashy. If you were hoping Samsung would go bold with something eye-catching, like Apple’s bright orange iPhone from last year, this lineup might feel a bit tame.

On pricing, there’s some relatively good news.

Korean outlet iNews24 reported that Samsung is trying to keep the Galaxy S26 Ultra—the most expensive model—from going over 2 million won. A Samsung source said the company is “doing their best” to hold the line on prices.

That amount converts to about $1,360, or roughly $60 more than the Galaxy S25 Ultra. Since the gap is small, Samsung could still end up keeping prices the same as last year, even as memory chip prices climb because of a global RAM shortage.

Samsung hasn’t yet announced the Galaxy S26 series. But with leaks popping up almost daily, a launch event announcement is expected soon. That should finally clear up what’s real—and what’s not.

Health Officials Calm Fears After Cruise Ship Hantavirus Outbreak

New Mexico health officials moved quickly to calm fears after reports of a cruise ship hantavirus outbreak abroad. They emphasized that the local Sin Nombre strain does not spread person‑to‑person, unlike the Andes strain linked to the ship. Officials urged residents to follow prevention guidelines — wearing masks and gloves when cleaning rodent areas and disinfecting droppings with bleach — to reduce risk. They confirmed that no New Mexicans were aboard the ship and only one local case has been reported in 2026. By clarifying the difference between strains and reinforcing safe practices, officials reassured the public and prevented unnecessary alarm while keeping awareness high.
