Elite S26 Ultra
Price range: $ 3,560 through $ 4,160
Elite is the purest way to own a gold plated Galaxy S26 Ultra: one polished metal across a new back panel and the frame, with nothing to interrupt it. Choose 256GB, 512GB or 1TB.
The Elite Edition Gold Plated Galaxy S26 Ultra, Edge to Edge
The Gold Plated Galaxy S26 Ultra Elite dresses Samsung’s 6.9-inch flagship in a single precious metal. Every piece begins as a brand-new, unlocked Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra. In our Dubai atelier it receives a new plated back panel and a plated frame in 24K Gold, Rose Gold or Platinum, laid down 5–7 microns thick. Elite opens the Prime line of our gold Galaxy S26 Ultra collection.
Nothing competes with the metal. The rings around each camera lens share the finish, the Samsung wordmark sits centred on the back, and a discreet GoldPrivé mark sits near the base. With no pattern, inlay or stone, the back reads as one clean mirror of yellow, rose or white metal, and it leaves an open canvas for engraving. All three finishes are priced the same.
Outside and Inside What We Plate, and What Samsung Keeps
On the Gold Plated Galaxy S26 Ultra, our work stays on the exterior. Samsung’s rear glass is replaced by a new back panel that carries the plating, and the Armor Aluminum frame is plated in the same metal, so the edges flow into the back without a change of colour. The display, the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 for Galaxy processor, the cameras and the battery are never opened or altered, which is why Galaxy AI, 5G, eSIM and Samsung’s software updates carry on as normal.
A solid metal back does change two everyday habits. Wireless charging cannot pass through it, and neither can the NFC signal that Samsung Wallet uses for tap-to-pay. The Elite therefore charges through its USB‑C port, and contactless payments are made with a card or another device.
Samsung Specifications
Galaxy S26 Ultra The Hardware Under the Gold
Because the Elite is a genuine Galaxy S26 Ultra, the figures below are Samsung’s own, as published by Samsung Gulf. The complete list is on Samsung’s Galaxy S26 Ultra specifications page.
Two features behave differently once the Elite is plated: wireless charging and tap-to-pay give way to charging by cable. A customised phone is not water resistant and should be kept well away from water. For day-to-day handling, read our guide to caring for a 24K gold finish.
Presented to Order How Your Gold Plated Galaxy S26 Ultra Arrives
Each Elite is plated to order and delivered in a black leather presentation box with a gift bag. Inside you will find Samsung’s original documentation, a USB‑C cable, a 20W power adapter and a Certificate of Authenticity that can be checked on our verification page.
An unpatterned back is ideal for engraving. Initials, a family crest, a company logo or a meaningful date can be added through our personalisation service, and your specialist confirms the placement before production begins. Buying in the UAE?

Frequently Asked Questions
Elite Questions Gold Plated Galaxy S26 Ultra, Answered
Which parts of the Elite are plated?
A new back panel replaces Samsung’s rear glass and is plated at 5 to 7 microns, and the Armor Aluminum frame is plated in the same metal. The camera lens rings match the finish. The screen and every internal component stay exactly as Samsung built them.
Is it a genuine Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra?
Yes. Every Elite starts as a brand-new, unlocked Galaxy S26 Ultra and is customised by hand in Dubai. The 200MP camera, the S Pen, Galaxy AI features and software updates work just as they do on any other S26 Ultra.
Does the Elite support wireless charging and Samsung Wallet?
Not through the plated back. Metal blocks both wireless charging and the NFC signal used for tap-to-pay, so this Gold Plated Galaxy S26 Ultra charges by USB‑C cable and Samsung Wallet tap-to-pay is not available. If wireless charging matters to you, the Classic editions keep Samsung’s own back.
Can I have the back engraved?
Yes. The plain surface suits initials, a name, a crest or a logo. Send your idea through our customisation page and a specialist will confirm the layout before work begins.
Which storage options are available?
Elite is built on the 6.9-inch Galaxy S26 Ultra with 256GB or 512GB, each paired with 12GB of RAM, or 1TB with 16GB of RAM. Every capacity is offered in all three finishes.
How much does the Elite cost?
Prices run from $ 3,560 for 256GB to $ 4,160 for 1TB. 24K Gold, Rose Gold and Platinum all cost the same.
What happens to the warranty and water resistance?
Samsung may regard a customised phone as modified, which can affect its manufacturer warranty, and the phone is no longer water resistant once customised. Leronza Care covers the customised parts.
How does Elite differ from the other Prime designs?
Elite is the only Prime design with a completely plain back. Flora covers it in floral scrollwork, Pyramid uses a finely textured pyramid pattern, Imperial adds a contrasting chevron band with a jaguar emblem, and Prestige Link runs a chain down one side. See them together in the Prime category.
