Samsung has increased the prices of some of its mid-range smartphones in India.
The price hike affects select Galaxy A and Galaxy F series models and storage options.
Updated prices are expected to appear soon on online and offline stores.
Samsung has silently changed the prices of some of its Galaxy A series and Galaxy F series smartphones in India, as revealed by some internal documents shared on the social media platform X. The new pricing indicates that some storage options of mid-range models have seen a price hike from February 25, 2026. Although the new prices have not been implemented on popular e-commerce sites, the retail partners have reportedly been notified about the same. This is the second price hike reported by the South Korean company this year. Until now, the price hike seems to be restricted to some Galaxy A series and Galaxy F series models, with a minimum price hike of Rs 1,000.
