Samsung India now sells Certified Re-Newed versions of the Galaxy S26 and Galaxy S26 Ultra. The refurbished phones are offered through Samsung’s official website and the Shop app. Samsung states that the devices are inspected, refurbished, and tested before being put on sale. Both models come with a one-year warranty.
The outlets describe the programme as including use of genuine parts during refurbishment. Both sources also say renewed units receive Samsung-certified batteries where required, and that the phones retain their original key specifications, including AMOLED displays, multi-camera systems, and wireless charging support. Times of India adds that the refurbished devices are priced below launch cost, with discounts reported as up to 85% of the launch price, while also noting that the latest software updates are provided. The central difference is that NDTV focuses more on retained hardware specifications and refurbishment assurances, while Times of India emphasizes pricing and software update availability.
