Overview

• Images showing three S26 Ultra dummy units in silver, light gold and a bright orange resembling Apple’s Cosmic Orange surfaced on Reddit and were reshared by tipsters including UniverseIce.
• Respected leaker OnLeaks said the circulating picture is very likely AI‑generated, and outlets note there is no confirmation that Samsung will ship an orange option.
• Reporting tied to earlier CAD renders points to a flat display and back, refined corners, and a reworked rear camera layout with three lenses grouped on a pill‑shaped island.
• One UI 8.5 code references a feature labeled Private Display or Privacy Display, suggesting Samsung is testing an on‑screen privacy mode for the next flagship.
• Rumored hardware includes a 200MP main sensor, multiple telephoto cameras, up to 16GB RAM, a 5,000mAh battery with 60W charging, and Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 for most markets, with some regions possibly using Exynos, with launch expected in early 2026.
