Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra It’s finally here, but as with most premium Android flagships, it’s quite expensive. Luckily, there are some great deals already out there, including a great offer from Amazon. The retailer giant has dropped the price of the new 512GB S26 Ultra from $1,699.99 $1,299.99And not only that, but you also get a $200 Amazon gift card with your purchase.
For those who don’t know, the Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra is the follow-up to last year’s S25 Ultra, one of the top picks in our guide to the best gaming phones. According to Samsung itself, the S26 offers even more impressive performance, with its Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 chip offering up to 24% GPU boost and 19% CPU boost for “richer visuals and more fluid gameplay.”
In addition to its more than capable Snapdragon chip, the Galaxy S26 Ultra also features a redesigned vapor chamber, which keeps the phone cooler even under pressure, as well as increased charging speeds compared to its predecessor. That’s not to mention its 6.9-inch AMOLED display, triple-camera setup, and access to the ever-growing suite of Galaxy AI features. Simply put, this is a powerhouse of a flagship phone, whether you’re a mobile gamer or not.
To put the deal in perspective, the $1,299.99 price point applies to the 512GB version of the Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra in Black, White, Cobalt Violet, and Sky Blue colors. It’s worth pointing out that it’s currently the same price as the 256GB version on Amazon, so not only are you getting a $200 gift card, but you’re also doubling the storage at no extra cost. This is a great value for a brand new phone.
If you preorder the Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra now, you should receive it on March 11, the day of its official release.
