Samsung Lists Refurbished Galaxy S26 in South Korea From 1.06 Million Won

3 articles · Updated · Sammy Fans · Sep 13

Summary

  • Samsung has added certified re-newed Galaxy S26, S26+ and S26 Ultra models to its South Korea website, signaling local sales are about to begin even before a formal announcement.
  • Prices start at 1,064,800 won for the S26, rise to 1,233,100 won for the S26+, and reach 1,527,900 won for the S26 Ultra, with sequential shipping scheduled from September 15.
  • The Korea launch extends Samsung’s Certified Re-Newed rollout after the refurbished S26 series reached India and European markets last week, giving buyers a lower-cost entry to the latest flagship line.
  • The timing is unusually fast: the Galaxy S26 series debuted globally in February and went on general sale in March, meaning refurbished units are arriving about six months after launch rather than more than a year later as with the S24 and S25 lines.
  • South Korean buyers also get a two-year manufacturer warranty on these devices, underscoring Samsung’s push to widen flagship access while supporting its circular-economy strategy.
