Despite the ongoing uncertainty, a report from Korea suggests that Samsung has already completed its Galaxy S26 Edge development and will launch the device in the future, but not under the Edge lineup.

According to data from Hana Investments and Securities, S25 edge shipments amounted to 1.31 million units as of August. These figures pale in comparison to the Galaxy S25 (8.28 million), S25+ (5.05 million) and S25 Ultra (12.18 million).
Samsung is now expected to launch three Galaxy S26 devices in January with the Galaxy S26 Pro, S26 Plus and S26 Ultra.
