bemobiles tips
Is the lowest monthly price the best deal?
In this case the lowest monthly deal is also the cheapest overall, but always check the upfront cost and the 24-month total.
What will April price rises add?
Talkmobile has no annual price rise on this deal, so the total is what you pay. Other networks add up to £60.
Should I buy it outright instead?
Not today. SIM-free plus a cheap SIM costs £377.20 more over two years than the cheapest contract.

Our take on the Galaxy S26 Plus
The cheapest way to get the Galaxy S26 Plus on contract today is on Talkmobile: £579 upfront and £11.95 a month with 15GB of data, £865.80 over 24 months. At the other end of our table, iD Mobile’s best deal works out £266.16 dearer once rises are counted — the same phone, so the network choice alone is worth that much.
This deal has no annual price rise, so £865.80 is what you pay over the two years — rare on a phone contract and worth weighing against slightly lower headline prices elsewhere.
Buying the Galaxy S26 Plus SIM-free costs from £1,099. Pair it with a SMARTY 30-day SIM at £6 a month and two years cost £1,243, £377.20 more than the cheapest contract. Here retailers discount the handset to win the airtime, so the contract wins on price.
The Galaxy S26 Plus has a 6.7-inch screen, a 4,300 mAh battery, a weight of 190 g. It is on sale with 256GB of storage in 4 colours. It was released in February 2026.
