Samsung to Freeze Galaxy S26 Prices: Flagships to Be Unveiled on February 25 in San Francisco

Samsung has decided not to raise prices for its upcoming flagship smartphones. This was reported by well-known insider Ice Universe, citing Korean media sources.

According to the source, the prices of the Galaxy S26, Galaxy Z Fold8, and Galaxy Z Flip8 series will remain at the level of their predecessors. This means the South Korean manufacturer plans to maintain its current pricing policy for at least the next six months.

The official presentation of the Galaxy S26 lineup — including Galaxy S26, Galaxy S26 Plus, and Galaxy S26 Ultra — will take place on February 25, 2026, at a major event in San Francisco, USA. Retail sales of the new flagships are expected to begin in early March 2026.

At the same time, according to retailers, deliveries of Galaxy S26 smartphones to Turkmenistan are also scheduled for March 2026, indicating an almost simultaneous launch in international and regional markets.

As for foldable devices, their release is traditionally planned for summer. The Galaxy Z Fold8 and Galaxy Z Flip8 are expected to be unveiled around July 2026, with prices remaining unchanged as well.

Previously, live photos and videos of Galaxy S26 and Galaxy S26 Ultra mockups appeared online, confirming key design features of the upcoming devices.

Ice Universe is considered one of the most reliable sources of information on Samsung products. In the past, he was among the first to accurately report on waterfall displays, the notch in the iPhone X, the redesign of the iPhone 14, and Samsung’s 200-megapixel camera sensor. According to him, exclusive information comes directly from the South Korean giant’s R&D and engineering departments.
