Arrival of Galaxy S26 Edge uncertain
New reporting from South Korean NewsPim suggests that Samsung may have cancelled the Galaxy S26 Edge. According to multiple reports, the arrival of the phone has been cancelled due to low sales of the Galaxy S25 Edge. According to the quoted source, Samsung plans to discontinue the Edge series completely, once the stock of the Galaxy S25 Edge is sold out.
An anonymous Samsung official has been quoted as saying the following;
I'm not sure if the slim line (i.e. Edge line) will ever return, but as of now, it seems unlikely. It's practically gone.
While the future for the Edge series is uncertain, it is suggested that development of the Galaxy S26 Edge has already been completed. As a result, it may well be that the device will still come out in the future, but it will not be part of the Edge series.
Reports have been circulating about the Galaxy S25 Edge for some time. The smartphone is said to be far from popular, but Samsung is keeping its jaws shut when it comes to figures. According to Hana Investment & Securities, 1.31 million units of the Edge were delivered until August. This while the other models of the S25 series showed better figures in that period. For instance, 8.28 million units of the S25 were delivered, 5.05 million of the S25+ and 12.18 million of the S25 Ultra.

As mentioned, it is the year of thin smartphones. Apple recently presented the iPhone Air and we can expect another thin phone in early November. Indeed, Motorola will then present the global version of the Moto X70 Air announced from the week.
