Samsung Newsroom Malaysia has officially announced the release of the One UI 9 beta programme for users of the Samsung Galaxy S26 Series. The beta rollout gives early adopters access to Samsung’s next-generation Android experience ahead of the official public release later this year.

The Samsung Galaxy S26 Series is no stranger in Malaysia. To showcase its real-world AI experiences more, Samsung Malaysia is rolling out a nationwide series of roadshows designed as immersive, hands-on experiences. These events allow visitors to explore the Galaxy S26 Series in real-world scenarios, rather than just seeing specs on paper.

Samsung have officially announced that their Samsung Galaxy S26 series of smartphones will soon be able to share content using Apple AirDrop via Quick Share starting from today or 23 March 2026. The rollout will begin from South Korea and then eventually more regions such as Europe, Hong Kong, Japan, Latin America, North America, Southeast Asia and Taiwan.

As you should know by now, the new Samsung Galaxy S26 Series has seen an increase in prices. In Malaysia, the starting price is already RM5199, and that's for the base model. Obviously, memory shortage across the globe is to be blamed, and Samsung confirms it.

As we approach the end of the year, Samsung has already announced The First Look on 4 January 2026 at CES Las Vegas. While this doesn't confirm anything, we could have a first look at the upcoming Galaxy S26 series, so let's take a look at what the rumours say about it.

As we approach January 2026, we've been receiving more reports about the Samsung Galaxy S26 series. Samsung plans to debut its next flagship chipset with this series, but is Malaysia getting the Exynos or Snapdragon variants? Sources claim they have confirmation on this.
