Have your say: tell me what you want from the Samsung Galaxy S26

We're almost certainly only a few weeks away from the launch of the Samsung Galaxy S26 family, with the next Galaxy Unpacked likely to be held on February 25.

Yet despite this set to be one of the larger phone launches of the year, given Samsung's position in the phone market and as a maker of the best phones, the hype doesn't seem to be there this year.

When I recently asked readers if they’re excited for the Samsung Galaxy S26, a hefty 70% of respondents said they weren't hyped for the much-rumored new phones, with comments noting there's not much to get excited about given the iterative nature of phones and the lack of tipped upgrades for next-generation Galaxy models.
