Samsung’s Galaxy S26 Ultra is already stirring excitement ahead of the Galaxy Unpacked event next month. And we’ve now got an early indication of which colours the phone will arrive in.
Leaks currently point to six official shades, with early SIM tray images revealing black, white, blue, and purple.
While additional reports suggest Samsung will expand the palette to include Silver Shadow and Pink Gold, making the S26 Ultra one of the most colourful flagships in recent memory. Although none of them seem to particularly stand out, at least to us anyway.
The new leak aligns with Samsung’s history of offering exclusive finishes through its online store, so more options could still appear post-launch.
Official Colour Names
According to @evleaks, Samsung will market the colours with distinctive names, including:
- Glacial Blue
- Cobalt Violet
- Silver Shadow
- Pink Gold
Colour choice often plays a bigger role than specs for many buyers. Samsung’s decision to expand beyond the usual black and white shows a clear push to appeal to style-conscious users. The addition of pastel-inspired tones like Pink Gold and Silver Shadow reflects broader design trends in smartphones, where softer finishes are gaining traction.
For those who prefer understated looks, Black and White remain safe bets. Meanwhile, Glacial Blue and Cobalt Violet bring a splash of personality without going overboard.
The Galaxy S26 Ultra is likely to debut in February 2026 at Galaxy Unpacked, alongside the S26 and S26+ models, although no Edge or Pro phones are expected. Sales are rumoured to begin on 11 March 2026, giving fans just a short wait after the reveal.
Neutral smartphone colours such as black, white, and silver consistently retain stronger resale value compared to brighter or limited‑edition finishes.
