The Galaxy S26 Ultra has been revealed in orange and features a new camera module design.
Leaked images reveal a Galaxy S26 Ultra in a Cosmic Orange colorway, similar to its competitor, the iPhone 17 Pro Max, along with changes to the camera module design and upgraded specifications.
The Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra is becoming the focus of the tech community as the latest leaks suggest this flagship model will have a controversial new color option. Specifically, the device will have an Orange color option, with a shade said to be almost identical to the Cosmic Orange color expected to appear on the iPhone 17 Pro Max.
Similarities in color and texture
The choice of orange color for the Galaxy S26 Ultra has sparked mixed reactions. Some argue that Samsung is continuing to emulate elements of Apple's success instead of creating its own unique identity. Previously, the South Korean tech giant also used titanium for its Ultra series, a trend that Apple had already pioneered.
A consistent change in design.
Besides the new color, the Galaxy S26 Ultra also features significant changes in appearance, especially on the back. Instead of placing the camera sensors separately like its predecessors, the new version will arrange the sensors vertically and neatly house them in a single module. This change is expected to create a more harmonious and unified design with the overall device.
Technical specifications and key features
The Galaxy S26 Ultra maintains its position as a flagship device with powerful specifications. It is expected to feature a larger screen and a high-resolution camera system, offering maximum support for artificial intelligence (AI) features.
| Parameter | Expected details |
|---|---|
| Screen | 6.9-inch Dynamic AMOLED, QHD+, 120Hz (variable 1~120Hz) |
| Memory | 12GB RAM, 1TB ROM |
| Main camera | 200MP |

Despite having a relatively modest battery capacity compared to competitors in the same Android segment, Samsung has compensated by upgrading charging speed and optimizing performance through new screen technology. In addition, new AI features will be deeply integrated to assist users in image processing and daily experiences.
