Samsung's Galaxy S26 is almost certainly getting more expensive due to soaring memory and component costs, leaving the company in a tough pricing bind.

Samsung scrapped the S26 Edge last-minute, meaning the resurrected Plus could just be a safe, boring rerun of the S25 Plus with recycled hardware.

The Galaxy S26 Edge has reportedly been canceled, but the company can let it live on in the Plus, just like it did with the Galaxy Z Fold 7.
