Samsung's upcoming smartphone, the Galaxy S26 FE, has appeared in leaked press renders with detailed specifications. The device is expected to be offered in Graphite (dark gray), Pistachio (light green), and Blueberry (light blue) color options. The camera deco has also received a refreshed design compared to its predecessor.
Design and Display
The Galaxy S26 FE is expected to feature slim bezels, although the bottom bezel will be slightly thicker. The smartphone will reportedly use a flat Armor Aluminum frame for added durability and a premium feel.
On the front, the device is tipped to feature a 6.7-inch FHD+ Infinity-O Dynamic AMOLED display with a 120Hz refresh rate and up to 1,900 nits peak brightness. Most of the display and camera specifications are expected to remain similar to the previous-generation model.
Performance and Software
The biggest hardware upgrade is expected to be the processor. The Galaxy S26 FE is rumored to feature Samsung's latest Exynos 2500 chipset, replacing the Exynos 2400 used in the predecessor. The 3nm chipset is expected to feature a deca-core CPU clocked at up to 3.2GHz and a Samsung Xclipse 950 GPU.
The smartphone is expected to ship with Android 17 with One UI 9. It is also tipped to come with 8GB of RAM and 128GB or 256GB of internal storage.
Camera System
The Galaxy S26 FE is expected to retain a triple-camera setup on the rear. It will reportedly feature a 50MP primary camera with an f/1.8 aperture and OIS, accompanied by a 12MP 123° ultra-wide camera and an 8MP telephoto camera with OIS and 3X optical zoom.
For selfies and video calls, the smartphone is tipped to feature a 12MP front-facing camera with an f/2.2 aperture.
Battery and Charging
The Galaxy S26 FE is expected to retain a 4,900mAh battery, but it could adopt a newer silicon-carbon battery technology. This battery technology was first introduced in Samsung's Galaxy Z Fold8 and Galaxy Z Flip8 series.
The device is expected to support 45W wired fast charging along with 15W wireless charging and wireless power sharing.
Connectivity and Other Features
The smartphone is expected to support 5G SA/NSA, 4G VoLTE, Wi-Fi 6E, Bluetooth 5.4, GPS, GLONASS, NFC, and USB Type-C 3.2 Gen 1 connectivity. Other features are expected to include an in-display fingerprint scanner, stereo speakers, Dolby Atmos, and IP68-rated water and dust resistance.
