Anonymous, 5 hours agoMake S and Ultra only . 6.6" and 7.1" both 21:9... moreBig and bigger. Oh I love illusion of choice.

    Imagine listening to the yapping of some Chinese cat on twitter.com

Would be more logical for someone to buy the FE model or midrange phone if they are on a budget. They aren't canceling the entire lineup if that's what you thought.

                      Long Live Xiaomi🧡🧡🧡

                        The obvious move here is to cancel the Plus line, it is barely smaller than the ultra with all around downgrade, especially the price is never competitive with Chinese models, meanwhile a lot of people still prefer Regular line because there's not a lot of options, Xiaomi 13/14 (size not even close to S24), Foldable Flips, Xperia 5, are the remaining competitors, and clearly Samsung have an advantage here. Especially their own FE line-up just seems more value for most people, Plus just in the awkward middle ground of king of nothing.

                          Would be a shame to see devices go up in size once again

                            Not only you can't really buy "mini" phones anymore, you soon won't be able to buy "not ridiculously oversized ones" anymore either. Hello?! I gave up and went with the trend of oversized phones, but I have huge pockets and I'm a power user. Not all are and for most people huge phones are more of inconvenience than benefit.

                              Chinese influencer says the biggest brand in the world will cancel its flagship model. I wonder why?

                              It is inevitable they will change the lineup at some time, as mobile evolves. Another fantasy idea is that they'll change how people buys variations to adapt to the new EU rules requiring long-term reparability. It would make sense to give users more configuration options when the phones has to be built for component replacements.

                                China: 1 Samsung:0

                                  Here's better strategy for Samsung.
                                  ---------------------------------------------------------------------------

                                  S26 Ultra (pro camera & flagship chip) 6.7"
                                  S26 (pro camera & flagship chip) 6.3"
                                  S26 FE (without periscope & flagship chip) 6.5"

                                  A76 6.5"
                                  A56 6.3"

                                  ---------------------------------------------------------------------

                                  Galaxy S26 becomes Pro camera with periscope telephoto a-la the Pixel 9 Pro & iPhone 16 Pro. 6.2" display & 70mm width. This will pair perfectly with Ultra.

                                  X out Galaxy S26+ it is useless without the Pro features. Rather bring out the A76 in 6.5" range.

                                  Make A56 smaller in 6.3" range.

                                    kvlada, 4 hours agoThey should just rebrand them to a higher level: S26 is ... moreIt is Samsung.
                                    Don't be shocked if named Pro and Pro max

                                      S24 FE is official.

                                        They should just rebrand them to a higher level:

                                        S26 is now called S26+

                                        S26+ is now S26 Ultra

                                        S26 Ultra is now known as S26 Ultra Max.

                                        And then introduce a new model called S26 Ultimate which is a foldable version of S26 Ultra Max.

                                        Next year, a 3-fold version is called S26 Ultimate Max.

                                        Two years later, 4-fold with display on both sides can be S27 Ultimate Pro Max Plus.
