From the Samsung Galaxy S26 series to the Vivo V70 series, February 2026 saw the launch of several smartphones across all segments. And with the Mobile World Congress set to kick off next week, March promises more of the same.

Apart from major smartphone announcements, you can also expect to see other innovations in mobile technology at MWC 2026. Chinese smartphone makers are also set to unveil big ‘Ultra’ phones this month, starting with the launch of the Xiaomi 17 Ultra, which kicks off today. So without any further delays, here’s the list of the biggest smartphones launching in March 2026.
