TL;DR
- The Galaxy S26 Ultra is only expected to launch in the new year, but we’ve already seen a few clones.
- These devices claim to offer impressive specs for under $200, but you should stay far away from them.
It’s not uncommon to see cloned versions of popular smartphones, with Apple and Samsung frequently targeted by sketchy phone brands. The Galaxy S26 series isn’t even out yet, though, but we’ve already seen a few clones on the market.
There are several listings on Amazon for Galaxy S26 Ultra clones, starting with the $170 S26 Ultra (also called the C26 Ultra). The listing promises features such as a 7.3-inch HD screen, 8GB of RAM, 256GB of storage, a 6,800mAh battery, a “108MP+72MP” camera, a stylus with an integrated stylus slot, and a microSD card slot. If the microSD support is indeed confirmed, that means this Galaxy S26 Ultra clone has a feature that the real S26 Ultra likely won’t have.
