Samsung’s Galaxy S series has traditionally included three models: the standard, the Plus, and the top-tier Ultra. However, recent leaks suggest that the Galaxy S26 lineup might not feature the Plus variant. The absence of a model number for the S26 Plus indicates that Samsung could be discontinuing it by 2026.
There are speculations that the sales of the Plus model have been underwhelming, prompting Samsung to focus on more profitable options. Additionally, the Edge model might be seen as a viable alternative to the Plus, sharing a similar size and potentially offering comparable features.
In other developments, the base Galaxy S26 could see a significant hardware upgrade, as indicated by an unusual leap in its model number. Meanwhile, the Galaxy S26 Ultra might receive a major enhancement to its 200MP camera, possibly switching to a larger Sony sensor for improved light capture. This potential upgrade could mark a significant shift for Samsung, known for its cautious approach to camera advancements.
