Samsung has announced a new Galaxy Event for August 27, 2026. During the presentation, the company will introduce another member of the Galaxy S26 family.

Samsung has not revealed the phone’s name or specifications. The company has only confirmed that the device will offer core Galaxy S26 experiences involving the camera, artificial intelligence and the latest version of One UI.

When will the Samsung presentation take place?

The Galaxy Event livestream will begin on August 27 at 9:00 p.m. Korea Standard Time. This corresponds to:

• 12:00 p.m. UTC;

• 2:00 p.m. Central European Summer Time;

• 3:00 p.m. in Kyiv.

The presentation will be available through Samsung’s official website and the company’s YouTube channel.

Samsung published the official invitation on August 20 through the Samsung Global Newsroom.

What do we know about the new phone?

Samsung describes the device as the newest addition to the Galaxy S26 family. The company says it will bring over the series’ core experiences, from the camera to AI-powered features.

The phone will also run the latest version of Samsung’s One UI software. The invitation does not specify the exact version number.

So far, Samsung has officially confirmed only a few details:

• the device will join the Galaxy S26 family;

• its camera will be one of the main areas of focus;

• it will include AI-powered features;

• it will use the latest version of One UI;

• the full announcement will take place on August 27.

The name and specifications remain unknown

Samsung has not confirmed the model’s name, so any names currently appearing online should still be treated as unconfirmed.

The company has also not disclosed:

• the design and available colors;

• the display size and specifications;

• the processor;

• the number and resolution of the cameras;

• the available memory and storage options;

• the battery capacity and charging speed;

• the price and release date;

• the countries where the phone will be sold.

These details should become available during the presentation or when Samsung publishes the official specifications.

What to expect from the Galaxy Event

Based on Samsung’s wording, the new device may bring the most important Galaxy S26 features to users who do not necessarily need everything offered by the most expensive models in the series.

The key questions will be how much the phone costs and which Galaxy S26 features Samsung has chosen to retain. It will be particularly interesting to see whether the new model includes the same photo-processing and AI tools or a more limited selection.

Samsung has not announced the duration of the presentation. Since the event focuses on a single new addition to the family, the company will likely concentrate on the phone, its camera, One UI and AI features.

Once the device is officially unveiled, it will be possible to examine its specifications, compare it with the other Galaxy S26 models and determine which users it is designed for.
