Samsung Galaxy S26 FE specs and features

It packs a 6.7-inch, FHD+ Dynamic AMOLED 2X display, pushing an up to 120Hz refresh rate along with a peak brightness of 1,900nits. That’s on top of an IP68 dust and water resistance rating for extra durability.
Under the hood, the Galaxy S26 FE is powered by an Exynos 2500 system-on-chip, their last generation 3nm flagship SoC that we last saw on the Galaxy Z Flip 7. It gets mated to 8GB of memory and up to 512GB of storage. You’ll also find Android 17 out of the box, skinned with OneUI 9 over it, along with a guarantee of at least 7 years of OS and security updates. The Galaxy S26 FE will get all of the same expanded AI capabilities found on the regular Galaxy S26 too, such as Galaxy AI and Google Gemini.
As for its cameras, you’ll find a main 50MP, f/1.8 shooter flanked by a 12MP, f/2.2 ultrawide and an 8MP, f/2.4 telephoto offering 3x optical zoom, while a 12MP, f/2.2 selfie shooter sits up front. What’s nice about the Galaxy S26 FE is that it has the same kind of camera features found on Samsung’s flagships, such as My FanCam from the Z Flip and Z Fold 8 lineup, as well as Super Steady Video with Horizontal Lock from the Galaxy S26 series.
Keeping the lights on meanwhile is a 4,900mAh battery that Samsung says will last for up to 29 hours of video playback. There’s also support for 45W wired fast charging, which should get you back up to 65% in just around half an hour, as well as 15W wireless charging and reverse wireless charging.
