Galaxy S26 Ultra Emerges as Best-Seller as Samsung Begins Worldwide Sales

Samsung Electronics has officially begun global sales of its latest flagship smartphones, the Samsung Galaxy S26 series, following the conclusion of the pre-order period. The new lineup is now available in markets around the world, marking the company’s biggest smartphone launch of the year. Early sales data indicates strong consumer interest, with the premium Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra emerging as the clear favorite among buyers. According to Samsung, the Ultra variant accounted for around 70% of total global pre-orders, showing that customers are increasingly choosing high-end devices with advanced cameras, larger displays, and powerful performance features. The trend mirrors earlier pre-order figures reported in South Korea, although it remains slightly lower than the 80% share recorded in the United States, where demand for the Ultra model was even stronger. With open sales now underway, Samsung expects the S26 series to further boost its position in the competitive global smartphone market.
