Samsung’s next flagship smartphone launch appears to be drawing closer. A leaked Galaxy Unpacked 2026 invite has surfaced online, offering fresh details around the expected launch timeline of the Samsung Galaxy S26 series and hinting at new Galaxy Buds true wireless earbuds.

Galaxy Unpacked 2026 date leak

According to a leaked invite shared by tipster Evan Blass, Samsung could host its first Galaxy Unpacked event of 2026 on February 25. The event is expected to mark the global debut of the Samsung Galaxy S26 lineup, which will succeed the Galaxy S25 series.

If accurate, the timeline aligns with Samsung’s recent launch pattern, where flagship Galaxy S-series smartphones are typically introduced early in the year. The event is expected to be held simultaneously for global markets, including India.

Galaxy S26 series: What to expect

The Galaxy Unpacked invite hints at the launch of three models: the Samsung Galaxy S26, Galaxy S26+, and Galaxy S26 Ultra. While hardware specifications are not revealed in the poster, the visual design offers a subtle clue about colour options.

The leaked image features a violet-toned background, suggesting that a violet shade could be positioned as the hero colour for the Galaxy S26 lineup. This matches earlier reports that pointed to “Cobalt Violet” as a key colour across Samsung’s next-generation Galaxy S-series smartphones.

Beyond colour options, no official details about design changes, cameras, or performance upgrades have surfaced so far.

Galaxy Buds 4 series launch

In addition to smartphones, Samsung is also expected to introduce the Galaxy Buds 4 series at the same event. The lineup may include the Galaxy Buds 4 and Galaxy Buds 4 Pro, expanding Samsung’s premium TWS portfolio.

A report by French publication Dealabs has leaked pricing details for the earbuds. The Galaxy Buds 4 are said to be priced at EUR 179 (around Rs. 19,600), while the Galaxy Buds 4 Pro could cost EUR 249 (approximately Rs. 27,300). Both models are expected to launch in black and white colour options.

The report also suggests that the Galaxy Buds 4 Pro may be offered in an additional Apricot colour, possibly exclusive to Samsung’s online store.

Early bird offers tipped

Samsung is reportedly planning an early bird offer for the Galaxy Buds 4 series. As per the leak, customers purchasing the earbuds in the black colour variant may receive a 25W wireless charging pad bundled at no additional cost.

Samsung has not officially confirmed any of these details yet. More clarity is expected as the rumoured Galaxy Unpacked date approaches.
