Samsung Nepal has officially opened pre-orders for its latest flagship smartphones, the Galaxy S26 series, introducing a lineup built around advanced Galaxy AI capabilities and expanded financing options for customers in Nepal.
The new series includes three models — Galaxy S26 Ultra, Galaxy S26+, and Galaxy S26 — all designed to simplify everyday smartphone tasks through intelligent automation. The devices aim to reduce technical complexity for users by allowing artificial intelligence tools to manage routine activities such as organizing schedules, editing content, and delivering contextual suggestions.
According to Pranaya Ratna Sthapit, Senior Director and Head of MX at Samsung Nepal, the new generation of Galaxy devices reflects a shift toward what the company describes as “Agentic AI,” where the system quietly handles background tasks so users can focus on productivity and personal priorities.
Pre-orders for the Galaxy S26 series are available in Nepal from March 8 through March 18, or until available stock runs out. Customers can place their orders through Samsung’s official campaign website.
Among the highlights, the Galaxy S26 Ultra introduces a built-in privacy display designed to provide pixel-level visual protection. The device also features a customized chipset and upgraded thermal management system intended to support faster artificial intelligence processing within a slim 7.9-millimeter body.
Samsung has also upgraded the camera system across the series. The S26 Ultra offers wider apertures for improved low-light photography, enhanced Nightography video for clearer recording in dim conditions, and improved stabilization technology for smoother footage. The phone also becomes the first Galaxy device to support the Advanced Professional Video standard, which allows high-quality video compression.
AI-assisted editing tools have been expanded through the updated Photo Assist suite, enabling users to describe visual changes, restore missing elements in images, or alter details such as clothing. A Creative Studio feature integrates editing tools into a unified interface, while security is reinforced through Private Album protection, Knox Matrix security architecture, and long-term software support including seven operating system upgrades and seven years of security updates.
Smart assistance tools are another focus of the series. The “Now Nudge” feature delivers contextual suggestions while “Now Brief” provides personalized reminders or playlist recommendations. Additionally, Circle to Search with Google now supports recognizing multiple objects within an image in a single search.
The Galaxy S26 lineup comes in Cobalt Violet and Black color options. Pricing in Nepal starts at NPR 133,999 for the Galaxy S26, NPR 182,999 for the Galaxy S26+, and up to NPR 293,999 for the top-tier Galaxy S26 Ultra variant with 16GB RAM and 1TB storage.
Samsung Nepal is also expanding its installment program, introducing a 24-month EMI facility alongside its existing 12-month financing option through Samsung Insta Finance in partnership with Hulas Fin Serve Hire Purchase Ltd. The company says the program is designed to make premium devices more accessible by lowering monthly payments.
Customers can also trade in older smartphones through partner platforms including Sabko Phone and ArkoStore when purchasing the new devices. Samsung says the trade-in program aims to ensure a secure and convenient upgrade process.
With pre-orders underway and several financing and upgrade incentives in place, the Galaxy S26 series marks Samsung’s latest attempt to expand access to flagship smartphone technology in Nepal while emphasizing AI-driven features as the centerpiece of its next generation devices.
