Samsung Galaxy S26 Edge may be alive after all | Infinium-tech

It’s been a wild ride these past few weeks in Samsung rumor land. The Korean company was initially said to be replacing the Galaxy S26+ with the Galaxy S26 Edge, but then it apparently turned out to be quite the opposite, with the S26 Edge canceled and the S26+ back in the works.

Now a new rumor claims there’s more to the story, and while the originally planned S26 Edge has indeed been scrapped, it’s now likely to be replaced by another phone. That’s because a device with the codename More Slim is now reportedly in development, which is interesting since the S25 Edge was codenamed Slim.

Additionally, development of the Peacock Slim started later than the phone that is believed to be the S26 Edge. So it looks like Samsung has changed its mind and scrapped it while working on another S26 Edge. Since development started later, it may arrive later in the year than the main S-series flagship family, like the S25 Edge, which we recently heard was delayed to March to account for the development time required for the S26+.

With a codename like More Slim, we expect the S26 Edge to be even thinner than its predecessor, which begs the question – was the S25 Edge not being thin enough its main issue? We’d argue that battery life and camera conditions might be most people’s main gripes, but Samsung clearly disagrees. We’re curious to know how thin the S26 Edge will actually be, and what we’ll lose to do so.
