Samsung is planning a price increase of around ₹20,000 for its entire Galaxy S26 5G series in India, according to currently available information. While Samsung has not officially confirmed this adjustment, expectations for a price rise have been building.
Galaxy S26 Lineup
The Galaxy S26 series will comprise three models: the Galaxy S26, Galaxy S26+ and the Galaxy S26 Ultra. All three devices are expected to receive the price adjustment.
Projected New Pricing
The anticipated price increases stem from growing manufacturing costs related to memory and components, a trend that has already prompted Samsung to raise prices on its A series devices. Here’s a breakdown of the expected new pricing:
- Galaxy S26: The 12GB + 256GB variant, originally priced at ₹87,999, is expected to cost ₹1,07,999. The 12GB + 512GB model will reportedly increase from ₹1,07,999 to ₹1,27,999.
- Galaxy S26+: The 12GB + 256GB version, initially at ₹1,19,999, is projected to be priced at ₹1,39,999. The 12GB + 512GB configuration is expected to rise from ₹1,39,999 to ₹1,59,999.
- Galaxy S26 Ultra: The 12GB + 256GB model, launching at ₹1,39,999, is expected to be priced at ₹1,59,999. The 12GB + 512GB variant will reportedly increase from ₹1,59,999 to ₹1,79,999, and the 16GB + 1TB version from ₹1,89,999 to ₹2,09,999.
Given recent price adjustments from other manufacturers, particularly Apple, this increase for Samsung’s flagship series is not expected to come as a surprise to consumers.
