Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra colors just leaked with new violet hero option — but where are silver and gold?

We’re likely only a few weeks away from the official unveiling of the Galaxy S26 series. However, that hasn't slowed the rumor mill down, as a new leak has given us another look at the potential color options for the Galaxy S26 Ultra.

The leak in question originated from the Russian retailer Cifrus, which appeared to have listed the Galaxy S26 Ultra in four colors. While the original listing has been removed, SammyGuru was able to obtain images from the page.

The renders show the Galaxy S26 Ultra in four different colors: White, Cobalt Violet, Sky Blue and Black.

These four options match other leaks we have seen for the Galaxy S26 series color options. However, we had seen a recent rumor from Evan Blass indicating that there would be two other color options: Pink Gold and Silver Shadow. We had also heard about a potential orange color, but that seems to have vanished from the conversation at this point.

One continuing point of note is that every leak has indicated that the rumored names for the colors don’t mention titanium. This could indicate that Samsung is following Apple’s lead by dropping the material from its construction, similar to the iPhone 17 Pro. If accurate, this would be the first time since the Galaxy S23 Ultra that Samsung hasn’t used the material.

This new leak follows a recent surge of tipsters making claims about the next generation of Samsung phones, including what appears to be leaked official renders of the upcoming Galaxy S26 Ultra, which match previously leaked renders of UAG cases for the S26 series.

While the overall design of the Galaxy S26 Ultra is similar to the Galaxy S25 Ultra, there is one change in the form of the new pill-shaped camera housing three of the phone's four rear cameras. We also have some idea of the hardware coming with the phone, including recent leaks that appear to confirm that the U.S. versions of the Galaxy S26 series will feature the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 for Galaxy, as well as satellite communication.

The most recent rumors appear to indicate that the next Galaxy Unpacked will occur on February 25, with the Galaxy S26 series reportedly hitting shelves on March 11. Let us know what you’re most looking forward to with the new generation of Samsung phones, as well as which color is your favorite.
