Samsung’s upcoming Galaxy S26 FE is shaping up to offer faster wired charging than its non-FE sibling, a detail that matters for buyers who prioritize quick battery top-ups over flagship status. A recent regulatory filing at UL Demko confirms the device supports 45W wired charging. This specification exceeds the 25W limit found in the base Galaxy S26, giving the FE model a distinct advantage in power delivery speed.
Regulatory filing confirms faster charging than standard flagship
The device is expected to run on Samsung’s Exynos 2500 processor. This chip selection comes from earlier rumors and reports about the phone's internal hardware. While the processor choice is not yet confirmed by the regulatory filing, it remains the primary suspect for the S26 FE's performance core.
- Wired Charging Speed: 45W
- Charging Ratings: 15V/3A, 10V/4.5A
- Certification Body: UL Demko
- Processor: Exynos 2500
The UL Demko listing provides specific technical details about the phone's power input capabilities. The device supports 15V at 3A and 10V at 4.5A charging ratings. These voltage and amperage figures mathematically confirm the 45W maximum power draw. The 45W charging capability provides reliable fast charging speeds without relying on proprietary voltage spikes.
Earlier reports suggest the Galaxy S26 FE will feature a redesigned rear camera island. This visual change distinguishes it from the Galaxy S25 FE design language. We looked at Samsung One UI 9 Testing Expands in our earlier Samsung coverage. The regulatory filing does not address software or camera hardware, so those details remain unconfirmed.
The 45W charging speed is a confirmed hardware feature based on the UL Demko certification. This sets a clear baseline for what buyers can expect regarding power replenishment. The Exynos 2500 processor and camera redesign remain unverified rumors until Samsung officially releases the device.
