TL; DR
- The Galaxy S26 Ultra color options have been leaked.
- It will be available in silver, orange, and gold, with the orange shade drawing backlash for resembling the iPhone 17 Pro.
- Design shows softer curves, a flat frame, and a pill-like rear camera layout.
Dummy units of the upcoming Galaxy S26 Ultra have surfaced online (again), but this time giving us an early look at its colors. We can see three new colors: silver, gold, and a bright orange that’s already dividing opinions. While some find it bold, others accuse Samsung of mimicking the iPhone 17 Pro’s Cosmic Orange.
The design appears slightly refined with more rounded corners, flatter sides, and a new pill-shaped camera layout grouping three lenses on one side. Materials seem unchanged, with speculation suggesting a move from titanium back to aluminum for cost or weight reasons.

Reactions online are mixed. Fans have criticized Samsung for what they see as minimal upgrades, particularly if the same camera hardware continues for another generation. Others argue Samsung is losing its design edge seen in older models like the previous S and Note series.

Everything you said is exactly what I've been thinking as well but I do have one more question & that is will Samsung also move to doing 2 launches like Apple has decided to do now cuz I feel it's a smart approach that Apple has separated tha launch of premium phones & vanilla model + the budget iPhone model.
