Samsung Electronics said Wednesday it has officially launched the global sales of its Galaxy S26 smartphones after posting record-breaking preorders for the company's flagship S lineup.
The Korean tech giant said the products will be officially available in Korea, the United States, Britain and India, eventually reaching 120 countries around the globe.
Last week, Samsung Electronics said preorders for its Galaxy S26 series smartphones in Korea reached 1.35 million, setting a new record for the flagship S series.
The premium Galaxy S26 Ultra accounted for more than 70 percent of preorders worldwide, it added.
The flagship series comes in three models: the Galaxy S26, the Galaxy S26+ and the Galaxy S26 Ultra.
The Galaxy S26 Ultra features the industry's first built-in privacy display, which allows users to protect content on their screen without having to apply a separate film.
"Designed for everyday situations, hardware and software are working as one to protect privacy without compromising everyday viewing experiences," Samsung said in a release.
The tech giant added that users can enhance the capabilities of the Galaxy S26 through the new Galaxy Buds4 wireless earphones.
"The Galaxy Buds4 Pro and Buds4 deliver superior hi-fi audio and everyday wearability to achieve the best listening experience across the Galaxy Buds series to date," it added.
