Apple is about to fire the starting gun on 2026’s battle of the best phones. The company holds its iPhone 17 launch event this Tuesday (September 9), where we're likely to see four new iPhone 17 models, alongside a number of other new devices.
But the iPhone 17 will only have a few months in the spotlight before it has to make way for its main rival, Samsung's next Galaxy S flagship. While the Galaxy S25 has been out for nine months now, we're expecting to see the Galaxy S26 at the start of the new year.
