Samsung’s upcoming Galaxy S26 and S26+ will each be offered in two RAM/storage combos, according to a new leak. These will be 12/256GB and 12/512GB.
On the other hand, the S26 Ultra will come in three options in most places: 12/256GB, 12/512GB, and 12GB/1TB. However, in some specific markets, the model with 1TB of storage will actually get 16GB of RAM. One such market is China, where local brands dominate and none have less than 16GB of memory for their top tier flagship devices.

So Samsung will match them on their own turf, but elsewhere across the world will choose to save some money and go with just 12GB, betting on the fact that its brand alone will make people choose an S26 with 12GB over a Chinese device with 16GB.
A leak from a few days ago also revealed that the entire S26 range will be using LPDDR5X RAM with 10.7Gbps speed. The S26 family is now rumored to be launching in February.
