Samsung has revealed it will be holding its first Galaxy Unpacked event of 2026 on February 26, 2026, and all signs are pointing to the Galaxy S26 lineup.
The event will kick off in San Francisco in the US at around 5 AM AEDT, so you’ll be forgiven for missing the livestream itself if you’re in Australia. Thankfully, whether you manage to wake up early to stream the event or not, Samsung will let you save AU$200 on a new Galaxy S26 device for a limited time.
All you need to do is register for the Unpacked launch here and answer a few questions, after which you’ll be emailed a “Galaxy Eco-Voucher” which can be applied to your eventual pre-order.
While the page says the voucher is for AU$50, Samsung will be boosting the voucher’s value to AU$200 once pre-orders open for the first 72 hours. This will run from the start of the event at 5am AEDT on February 26, 2026 to 4:59am AEDT on March 1, 2026.

More savings for eligible customers
If AU$200 off a new Samsung Galaxy S26 phone isn’t quite enough for you to pre-order, eligible customers can stack extra discount codes for up to AU$350 in total savings.
Some existing Samsung store customers would have received a AU$100 voucher code to their inboxes last week. If you have a Samsung store account, it’s worth checking your inbox (or potentially your junk mail folder) to see if you were one of the lucky ones.
Students can also receive an additional AU$50 voucher to spend on the Samsung Education Store thanks to the brand’s O-Week promotion. Simply sign up and fill out the details, and Samsung will then verify your eligibility to access the store through your student or staff email address.
