Is it any good?
Starting at ₹1,54,999 for 12GB of RAM and 256GB of storage, the Galaxy S26 Ultra remains Samsung’s everything-included slab for buyers who want a built-in S Pen and dual optical zoom lenses. It trims its profile down to 7.9mm and 214g while swapping back to an Armour Aluminium frame with Gorilla Armor 2 anti-reflective glass on the front.
The spec sheet leans heavily on camera hardware and silicon. You get the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 for Galaxy clocked up to 4.74GHz, a 6.9-inch Quad HD+ Dynamic AMOLED 2X panel peaking at 2,600 nits, and a four-camera rear setup headlined by a 200MP f/1.4 main sensor alongside 3x and 5x optical telephoto lenses. Wired charging finally steps up to 60W, paired with security updates valid until February 2033.
The catch is battery capacity and price. Samsung sticks with a 5,000 mAh cell while rivals push higher-density batteries, and the ₹1,54,999 entry ticket leaves no charger in the box.
