Samsung Galaxy S26+ in for review | Infinium-tech
Samsung’s updated Galaxy S26 series is now available, and we have the non-Ultra models for review, so let’s take a look. We’re starting with the Galaxy S26+, although the unboxing is the same across all three models – you get a USB-C cable, a SIM tool, and the phone.
The Galaxy S26+ starts at €1,250 for the 256GB model, but as part of the pre-order, you’re getting double the storage for the same base price.
Unlike the smaller S26, the Plus model has even faster charging at 25W – 45W to be exact. But you will have to provide your own charger if you don’t already have one.
Ours is the Sky Blue S26+, but you have the option of Cobalt Blue, White and Black.
Very little changes in this year’s Plus model. It has a matching camera island bump, which does nothing except make the phone very unstable on a flat surface.
Otherwise, the Galaxy S26+ looks and feels just like its predecessor. This may be a positive for some people, but this editor believes that some change once in a while isn’t bad.
Here’s everything that’s new in the Galaxy S26+. You get the 2nm Exynos 2600 SoC with 12GB of RAM, you get fast 20W wireless charging, you get the new Horizon Lock stabilization mode for video, and that’s about it.
This means you have the same 6.7-inch 1440p 120Hz AMOLED, the same camera system, and the same 4,900mAh battery. Not very upgradeable.
Here’s a look at the Galaxy S26+ next to the Galaxy S26. There was some speculation that Samsung would stop making a smaller S unit in 2026, but luckily, that’s not the case.
The Galaxy S26 is an improvement over its predecessor in several ways over the Plus model, so we’ll look at that further.
