Samsung has launched the Galaxy S26 Ultra, and according to records, pre-orders have soared to new levels thanks to new Galaxy AI features and Privacy Display. Not only that, but the device will get incremental spec upgrades such as faster charging, Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5, and more. The best part is? Just two months after its launch, the device is selling for more than Rs 15,000, but only under certain conditions. So, if you were considering an upgrade, read the article before making the purchase, as I have explained the Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra price drop breakdown.
The Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra was introduced at Rs 1,39,999 in India for the base 12GB RAM + 256GB storage variant, while the 512GB and 1TB variants were priced at Rs 1,50,999 and Rs 1,80,999, respectively. But now, all the variants are available with a Rs 9,000 discount on official stores and Vijay Sales, and that’s not it. The customers can also get up to Rs 6,000 discount on using select bank cards like HSBC, HDFC and RBL credit cards.
The customers can get the device on EMI starting at Rs 7,127 per month for 24 months. You can also exchange the old device to get a bigger rebate. But the value will depend on multiple factors, like working conditions.
Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra comes with a series of AI features and enhanced privacy. The standout was Privacy Display, which limits side-angle visibility. The performance is also top-notch with the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 for Galaxy chipset and runs on One UI 8.5 update with up to seven years of software support. The design is also new, with a slimmer and lighter build along with a new camera island. However, it retains the 5,00 mAh battery and a similar camera to the S25 Ultra. So, all in all, you can definitely consider the device for the above-mentioned price, but if you hold the Galaxy S25 Ultra, then I would suggest you not to upgrade.
