The Galaxy S26 FE Is Official, and Samsung Still Isn’t Shaking Things up Much

  • Samsung announced on Thursday that the Galaxy S26 FE will launch Sept. 3 for $699, marking a $50 price increase over last year's S25 FE model.
  • To keep costs lower than the $1,099 Galaxy S26, Samsung made hardware trade-offs while retaining many of the same AI features found in pricier models.
  • The S26 features a 6.7-inch display with 1,900 nits peak brightness, 4,900mAh battery with 45-watt charging, and a new 12-megapixel selfie camera with wider field of view.
  • Running Android 17 and One UI 9, the phone receives seven years of software updates and includes AI tools like Photo Assist and Audio Eraser for enhanced editing.
  • Available in Blueberry, Graphite, or Pistachio, the S26 FE competes against lower-priced Google Pixel and Apple alternatives, with Samsung also offering magnetic accessory cases for added functionality.
