Evleaks says Galaxy S26 Ultra will get more than four color options
Just a day after a leak suggested four color options for the upcoming Galaxy S26 Ultra, a new tip now claims the flagship will launch in as many as six finishes.
In a post on X, well-known tipster Evan Blass shared the full list of color variants for the Galaxy S26 Ultra.
According to the leak, the phone will be available in black, white, silver shadow, sky blue, cobalt violet, and pink gold.
This contradicts yesterday’s report, which claimed the Galaxy S26 Ultra would be offered in Black Shadow, White Shadow, Glacial Blue, and Ultraviolet colorways.
That said, Samsung often keeps certain color options exclusive to its online store. As such, it’s likely that the Galaxy S26 Ultra could be sold in additional colors through Samsung’s official website.
