Overview
- Samsung's official German store raised Galaxy S26 list prices on October 2, increasing most models by €100 and charging up to €200 more for the 1 TB S26 Ultra.
- Price moves differ by configuration with the S26 (256 GB) now €1,099, the S26 Plus (256 GB) €1,349, the S26 Ultra (256 GB) €1,549, and the S26 FE left unchanged at €799 in the Samsung store.
- Retailers and Amazon's Prime Deal Days are selling the same S26 models for far less than Samsung's new list prices, with headline offers reported as low as €959 for the S26 Ultra and €819 for the S26 512 GB during the sale.
- Some retailer deals add tangible extras such as an extra year of warranty on Amazon's 'exclusive' listings, which can alter the net value buyers get compared with buying at Samsung's store price.
- The manufacturer cites broader memory and storage cost dynamics seen earlier in South Korea as background for the change, and consumers can save hundreds of euros by comparing offers and weighing included services.
