We're only a few weeks away from the end of 2025 and the beginning of a new year, which will bring us closer to the official launch of so many new premium Android handsets, including Samsung's. The Galaxy S26 series is perhaps one of the most anticipated Android flagships, but the fact that Samsung has allegedly made many last-minute changes to the lineup has made users even more curious about the release.

While Galaxy fans eagerly wait for its official release, leakers have been excellent at bringing key details about all the Galaxy S26 models. We now have another one, and this time around, the latest leaks reveal what appear to be the wallpapers of the Galaxy S26 series. If true, the leak may have also revealed another important detail about the lineup.

The leaked wallpapers may have revealed Galaxy S26 color options

Famed leaker @wr3cckl3ss1, who has an excellent record of revealing many One UI features well before their official release, first spotted the wallpapers and posted directly on their X timeline. You can download them easily on your current Galaxy handset, but due to their 1:1 aspect ratio, none of them may fit naturally on your phone.

All wallpapers have one thing in common, and that's an S-shape in the middle. The "S" is identical in all the wallpapers, but the colors are not. The wallpapers come in as many as six different color options, including Mint, Coral, Black, Violet, Silver, and Grey. Another leaker, @DaRealManMikey, has claimed that these leaked color options confirm the color options of the Galaxy S26 series.

However, we're still in the dark about whether all the models will be available in all six color variants. If we look at history, it seems unlikely that all Galaxy 26 models will ship in all six colors. Also, the leak doesn't rule out the possibility of Samsung offering more color options exclusive to certain markets or online stores.

Whatever the case may be, if the leak is true and the wallpapers indeed confirm the color options, it won't be surprising, because many of the previous Galaxy models offered similar shades to what we're seeing now. Of course, the official release will clear all the speculation, and if the latest rumors are to be believed, Samsung will unveil all the Galaxy S26 models in February 2026.
