Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra might be called S26 Note, S26+ could be S26 Pro

Samsung Android Rumors

People on the internet don't seem to like Google's new smartphone naming scheme, even though it makes sense - there's a vanilla Pixel 9 which is the lowest-specced, two slab Pros in two sizes, and a Pro Fold because with that price tag not attaching the "Pro" moniker to it would be insane.

Anyway, the same people are probably going to not like the direction Samsung is now rumored to be considering going in the future. According to a tipster over on X, the Galaxy S26 Ultra may not be called that. Instead, Samsung could go with Galaxy S26 Note, to emphasize its built-in S Pen.

But wait, that's not all! The Galaxy S26+ may be called Galaxy S26 Pro instead, we assume because Samsung has finally spotted the trend of Pro models everywhere, and that word is currently missing from its mobile portfolio.

Don't take this for granted, as it's still very early days, plus even the source of the rumor is only implying that the Korean company is thinking about changing branding, not that it's something set in stone already.

All of that aside, what do you think sounds better? S26 Ultra or S26 Note? S26+ or S26 Pro? Let us know in the comments.

I like it. It'll keep the normies from ruining the Note (S Ultra). Assuming feature parity, they'll just flock over to the Pro, just like in the S20 days.
