Samsung Electronics outlines people-centred Galaxy design, aims for optimal fit

Samsung Electronics unveiled its Galaxy design philosophy, emphasising a people-centred approach that blends into daily life rather than spotlighting advanced technology. In a media briefing on April 9, it introduced the design concept and development process for the Galaxy S26 and Buds4 series released last month. The Galaxy S26 series adopts a unified outer silhouette across three models. Buds4 was redesigned around fit, using more than 100 million ear-shape data points and over 10,000 wear simulations.
