Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra Leaks in a Bold Orange Color Inspired by iPhone 17 Pro

A new leak shows how Galaxy S26 Ultra may look in different colorways. The phone is coming in January. It’s almost at the finish line, and the leaks are getting more intense. The live view of possible S26 Ultra dummy images should give you a rough estimate of its new appearance. 

This is a much softer design than before, almost to the point that it loses its identity as a Galaxy Ultra model. There are no sharp corners on this phone. Even the edges are sanded down on Galaxy S26 Ultra (presumably). All this makes for a much more ergonomic and comfortable design.

But here’s the twist: this newfound image is actually shared by OnLeaks on X/Twitter, and the profile owner said it’s likely another AI-generated photo of S26 Ultra. This is far from AI slop, though. That’s because it accurately visualizes what the new colors may look like on the S26 Ultra. 

We believe the shot on the left and the light gold hue on the right. Such pale colors are a common sight on Samsung’s roster. But the Orange Samsung new S model in the center is curious. It almost looks like the Cosmic Orange from iPhone 17 Pro and Pro Max. 

Again, just because you see it in the image here doesn’t mean it’s real. We are still trying to assess its validity. But, believing the folks at OnLeak, we can dismiss this image as another fan-made AI Galaxy S26 Ultra art and nothing more. 

We do know some other facts about S26 Ultra that may come to pass. They say Samsung is working on a custom display that can limit screen visibility from the sides. It works almost like those privacy screen protectors, but triggered by the firmware in public places instead of being active 24/7. 

Of course, this phone will grab the latest One UI 8 firmware. Qualcomm has a Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 (For Galaxy) chip lined up for this device, so it’s going to be at the bleeding edge. There’s also a thinner build and a new stylus design. This is just a start. More leaks abound as we get closer to launch, so keep watching the news.
