Just when the Galaxy S25 Edge was released last month, the news of a successor that should be launched under the name of Galaxy S26 Edge has surfaced. Today, the official confirmation of the existence of this phone has appeared and its early appearance gives credit to a rumor on the future of the Galaxy series.
Proof of the existence of the successor to the Galaxy S25 Edge (currently available on Amazon at a price of $ 999.99) was found in the IMEI database of the GSMA. First indicated by SammyPolicethe Galaxy S26 Edge was spotted alongside the Galaxy S26 Ultra. The first carries the model number “SM-S947U”, which indicates that it is the model intended in the United States, while the Galaxy S26 Ultra carries the model numbers “SM-948U” and “SM948N” for the United States and Korea respectively.
According to certain speculations, the early appearance of the Galaxy S26 Edge reinforces a previous ratio according to which there will be no S26 no more galaxy S26 more since the Edge model will take its place. However, SammyPolice says the Galaxy S26 Plus models and Galaxy S26 will be listed later.
The question also arises whether the Galaxy S26 Edge will be launched at the same time as the other models. If it is launched at the beginning of next year, it means that the gap between the two Edge models will be about eight months, which is short enough for smartphones in the Samsung S series (Galaxy).
According to the source, the Galaxy S26 series will be launched with Oneui 8.5, which means that it is not an important update since it is a change of “0.5”. However, the details of the new user interface remain unknown.
