Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra: Exclusive colors and multi-agent perplexity AI
The Samsung Galaxy Unpacked event is just around the corner – the official date of next Wednesday, February 25th, has already been confirmed. Time for a few final leaks, today in the form of the color options for the Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra.
If you’re looking to buy a brand-new Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra, you’ll likely have a choice of four colors: black, cobalt purple, sky blue, and white. As is the case every year, there will also be some exclusive online colors available in the Samsung webshop.
According to a new leak, these colors are said to be silver and rose gold (pictured above). Neither sounds particularly exciting or new. Rose gold is already one of the exclusive online colors for the Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra. However, the new color will likely not have a titanium finish on the frame. Silver was previously described as “Silver Shadow” and is expected to be a fairly standard gray.
Thanks to a previous leak, you can see in detail above how the four standard color options of the Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra look.
Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra with Multi-Agent Perplexity AI
Furthermore, there is new information about the AI features of the Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra. Samsungs internal research has revealed that nearly eight out of ten users regularly use more than two AI agents. The company is therefore working hard to improve Galaxy AI. By supporting multiple agents, Samsung will significantly simplify the simultaneous use of several AIs.
The revamped Galaxy AI will integrate AI agents at the operating system level. This will allow Samsung to stay ahead in the rapidly evolving field of AI by seamlessly integrating new AI agents that blend harmoniously into the familiar Galaxy experience.
Because the integration occurs at the system level, you can control the different agents without having to switch between applications or repeat commands. This also gives the agent the necessary context for more natural interactions.
The first new AI agent to join the group is Perplexity, which can be activated by the command “Hey Plex” or by assigning it to the side button (the power button). It will be available in the upcoming Galaxy flagships, and therefore also on the Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra.
Plex will be deeply integrated into Samsung’s own apps, including Gallery, Notes, Calendar, Clock, and Reminders. It will also work with certain third-party apps. The Plex agent is intelligent enough to handle multi-step workflows.
According to the press release, “further details regarding supported devices and features will be announced shortly.” We suspect that the update to One UI 8.5 will also bring these features to older Galaxy S and Galaxy Z models.
“We are committed to building an open and inclusive integrated AI ecosystem that gives users more choice, flexibility, and control to accomplish complex tasks quickly and easily. Galaxy AI acts as an orchestrator, bringing together different forms of AI to create a single, natural, and coherent user experience,” said Won-Joon Choi, President, Chief Operating Officer (COO), and Head of Research and Development for the Mobile Experience (MX) business unit at Samsung Electronics.
