A new generation of Samsung Galaxy is here. The Samsung Galaxy S26 made its debut during Samsung Unpacked on Wednesday, Feb. 25, and preorders start today ahead of its March 11 release.
While there are very few differences between the new S26 Samsung Galaxy phones and previous generations, there are some noteworthy changes.
Now, Samsung has combined its AI photo and video studio into the Creative Studio. What’s creating the bigger buzz is the inclusion of a new Privacy Display. The new feature means that you can only view the screen head-on, meaning passersby can’t catch a glimpse of your texts or any other very important business you’re up to.
Physically, the Samsung Galaxy S26 will look similar to the S25 line-up, but it will have a more prominent camera bump. For those upgrading, this means one certainty — you’ll need a new phone case.

Luckily, new cases are already available for the Samsung Galaxy S26. They’re available to shop now, so by the time your new Samsung Galaxy S26 arrives, your case will be there too.

Of course, Samsung is one of the first to outfit its new phones. Along with the Samsung Galaxy S26 preorder drop is a collection of new phone cases. Samsung launched a clear magnetic case, ultra slim case, silicone magnetic case, and a rugged case, all available to fit S26 phones, including the S26+ and S26 Ultra. According to Samsung’s website, these cases will ship before the phones and arrive by March 6.
Burga
A case is more than just crucial protections; it’s also a way to show personality. Burga makes cases with chic and trendy prints, including polka dots, stripes, ombre, and motivational messages. Before Samsung Unpacked even launched, Burga had Samsung Galaxy S26 cases available, which you can start shopping for now. Plus, they’re running a deal, and when you buy four cases, you only pay for two.
Buy four phone cases at Burga and pay for just two.
Careborne
An extremely thin phone case doesn’t mean a flimsy phone case. CaseBorne’s Thinborne cases are made from Aerospace-grade aramid fiber, which is extremely thin and durable. It’s meant to show off your phone rather than distract it with a flashy design. Caseborne’s Galaxy S26 case is already live and will arrive by Monday, March 2, a full nine days before the S26 is released.
Spidercase
For a slim but extremely functional case, look to the Spidercase, which comes in transparent designs so you can actually see your phone. It’s a thin case that’s shockproof without being bulky. Plus, it comes with a built-in stand and MagSafe compatibility. The Spidercase is available to shop on Amazon and will ship out on Monday, March 2.
