Samsung is preparing to release the Galaxy S26 FE smartphone, according to leaked information from SammyGuru. The device will feature a new vertical camera strip design that resembles the layout found on recent mid-range Galaxy A-series phones. Prototype units have already appeared on benchmarking platforms running the Exynos 2500 processor and Android 17.

The phone includes a 6.7-inch display with a 120Hz refresh rate. It houses a triple camera system equipped with 3x optical zoom capability. A 5000 mAh battery powers the device, which supports wireless charging. Samsung also plans to include IP68 dust and water resistance ratings for durability.
The smartphone will run One UI 9.0 based on Android 17. The company promises seven years of operating system updates for the model. Leaked case renders suggest the rear design follows a vertical camera arrangement similar to other recent mid-range Galaxy devices, though these details remain unconfirmed by official specs.
Samsung expects to launch the Galaxy S26 FE between September and October 2026. This timeline places the release around the same period as Apple's upcoming iPhone 18 Pro. The vendor has not yet confirmed specific pricing or regional availability details for the device.
