Samsung Galaxy Unpacked 2026 LIVE: How to Watch the S26 Ultra Reveal

Samsung announced on Tuesday that it will hold an event on February 25 in San Francisco. While the company didn’t say for sure what will be announced, we’re guessing it will be this rumored line Galaxy S26 on phones including a Galaxy S26 Ultra. Samsung released a cool animated video that may offer clues and easter eggs about what we can expect.

The invite video starts with a white square that « comes to life » and transforms into a frosted translucent cube with a sparkling emoji, which has become the default symbol for AI. The cube starts bouncing around, then rolls through the word Galaxy, and when it reaches the end of the word, the letters AI appear behind the cube. This sends the cube into the air where it opens and releases the AI ​​sparkling emoji.

The spark AI emoji then levitates and self-magnifies, rising above the remains of the cube. (If you watch the video version, you’ll hear Samsung’s signature Over the Horizon ringtone.) It then cuts to a black screen with the text « Galaxy Unpacked, » the date, and a note that it will be live on Samsung’s website.

Obviously, we are likely to see an update or new additions to the Galaxy AIwhich debuted on Galaxy S24 series in January 2024. However, the frosted cube is confusing. Could this be a new look for the AI ​​interface on Galaxy phones? Is Samsung adopting Apple’s liquid glass? Or could Samsung announce a Human AI Pin-cube-like device? Also, there was no hint of a phone in the invitation, and that made me nervous.
