Description
With the Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra, Samsung keeps its big-screen, four-camera formula and adds a Privacy Display that narrows viewing angles so people beside you cannot read your screen. Faster 60W wired charging and 25W wireless charging are the other notable steps up from the S25 Ultra, along with the newer Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 for Galaxy chip.

Who the Galaxy S26 Ultra is for
The S26 Ultra is aimed at people who treat their phone as a camera, notebook and office in one. The 5x periscope lens covers concerts and wildlife, the stylus helps with notes and signatures, and the Privacy Display is handy on trains and in open offices. Buyers with small hands or tight pockets may find the 6.9-inch body large and should look at the standard S26.
What to check before buying a new Galaxy S26 Ultra on eBay
- Check that the model number matches a North American unlocked version so that 5G bands and Samsung’s local warranty line up with your carrier.
- Pick the storage carefully: 1TB units carry 16GB of RAM, the lower tiers typically 12GB.
- Confirm that the S Pen is included and the box is still factory sealed.
- Avoid listings that hide the IMEI; a clean IMEI check protects you from carrier-blacklisted phones.
- Read our notes on buying on eBay from Canada if you are ordering from a US seller.
Galaxy S26 Ultra FAQ
What is the Privacy Display on the S26 Ultra?
It is a display mode that limits how clearly the screen can be seen from an angle, so the content stays readable for you while looking dim to people around you.
Does the S26 Ultra charge faster than the S25 Ultra?
Yes. Samsung lists 60W wired and 25W wireless charging for the S26 Ultra, up from the previous model.
How many zoom lenses does it have?
Two: a 10MP 3x telephoto and a 50MP 5x periscope, alongside the 200MP main and 50MP ultra-wide cameras.
