Samsung Galaxy S26 Series: Sale Date Lands in Mid-March
The next wave of Samsung’s flagship phones is coming, and this time, it looks like they’re showing up later than usual.
Last year, industry insider Evan Blass tossed out a date—February 25, 2026—for Samsung’s Galaxy S26 series Unpacked event. People were skeptical. After all, Samsung’s been launching its S series in January for the last few years.
But new info is backing him up.

Galaxy S26 Sales Date Leaks
A retail source in France now says the Galaxy S26 lineup will hit stores on March 11, 2026. That’s about two weeks after the rumored Unpacked event, which lines up with how Samsung usually does these things.
Pre-orders will probably open before then, but if you want to walk into a store or get a delivery, you’re looking at March 11.
Unpacked Event Arrives Later Than Usual
If Samsung sticks to this plan, the S26 Unpacked event will be the latest flagship launch we’ve seen from them in years. A late February reveal is a pretty big shift from those January launches—maybe they’re reworking their production schedule or just responding to changes in the market.
What’s In the Galaxy S26 Family?
Word is, Samsung’s bringing three models to the table:
- Samsung Galaxy S26
- Samsung Galaxy S26 Plus
- Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra
It sounds like they’re dropping the Edge branding, which hasn’t been around all that long anyway, and doubling down on the Plus as a core flagship.
What’s Next?
If these leaks are right, Samsung fans have a bit longer to wait for the next round of premium phones. The upside? More time could mean better hardware and tighter software when the S26 finally arrives.
Nothing’s official until Samsung says so, but with so many leaks pointing to the same dates, the picture is getting clearer.
Stay tuned—more news is on the way as we get closer to Unpacked.
