New Galaxy S26 Ultra colors
According to Blass, the Galaxy S26 Ultra will be available in the following colors:
- Black
- White
- Silver Shadow
- Sky Blue
- Cobalt Violet
- Pink Gold
Whether these include online exclusive shades or not isn’t clear, though I’d wager that this list does include them. Samsung doesn’t usually launch its flagship phones with so many colors right from the start.
Speaking of Samsung, the Galaxy S26 Ultra colors are:
* black
* white
* silver shadow
* sky blue
* cobalt violet
* pink gold— Evan Blass (@evleaks) January 20, 2026

As mentioned previously, a very recent leak already gave us four upcoming colors for Samsung’s newest phone: black, white, blue, purple.
Those four colors, which might be the launch lineup, are present and correct in Blass’s leak as Black, White, Sky Blue, and Cobalt Violet. Given his track record as well, the six colors that Blass has mentioned are pretty much guaranteed to be the final selection for the Galaxy S26 Ultra.
Cobalt Violet means that Samsung is dipping its toes into purple colors as well, after Apple did the same again with the iPhone 17. The presence of black, meanwhile, means that Samsung isn’t following Apple’s lead in not offering its strongest phone in one of the most popular colors around the world.
Online exclusive colors for the S26 Ultra
If the previous leak did, indeed, show off the four standard launch colors, then the online exclusive shades for the Galaxy S26 Ultra will be Pink Gold and Silver Shadow. This tracks, as the Galaxy S25 Ultra also had a “Titanium Pinkgold” online exclusive color choice.New colors are, of course, only the icing on the cake. The Galaxy S26 Ultra is expected to come with a wider aperture, leading to much better low-light photography. It’s also coming with a privacy display, which can hide the contents of the phone’s screen from people trying to sneak a peek.
Last, but certainly not the least, the Galaxy S26 lineup will see the return of Exynos with the excellent and super capable 2 nm Exynos 2600. Whether this chip makes its way to the Ultra model is still unknown, but the phone will be a very capable Android flagship for 2026 regardless.
