New Galaxy S26 FE details emerge with previous generation chip and renewed design
On August 10, 2026, information about the complete technical data sheet of the Galaxy S26 FE was released, anticipating the launch scheduled for the beginning of September. The model, part of Samsung’s Fan Edition line, maintains the approach of using a previous generation processor, integrated into a design that accompanies the Galaxy S26 series.
The new device features a redesigned body, with a thickness of just 7.4 millimeters and a weight of 193 grams. It will come with IP68 certification, guaranteeing protection against immersion in water and dust, and will be available in three shades: Graphite (dark gray), Pistachio (light green) and Blueberry (light blue).
The 6.7-inch Dynamic AMOLED 2X screen stands out on the front of the device, featuring Full HD+ resolution (2340 x 1080 pixels) and an adjustable refresh frequency of up to 120 Hz. The panel reaches a standard brightness of 1,200 nits, with the ability to reach 1,900 nits in times of greatest need, ensuring good viewing even in strong sunlight.
In terms of hardware, Samsung opted for the Exynos 2500 platform, a deca-core chipset that reaches up to 3.3 GHz and which had already been launched in the Galaxy Z Flip 7. This chip is complemented by 8 GB of RAM, accompanied by internal storage options of 128 GB or 256 GB, with no possibility of expansion via microSD card.
