The incoming phone will reportedly have a 6.7-inch FHD+ AMOLED screen with a 120Hz refresh rate, an Exynos 2500 chipset, a 5,000mAh battery with 45W charging, an IP68 rating, a 50MP wide camera, a 12MP ultra-wide, an 8MP telephoto with 3x optical zoom, and a 12MP front-facing camera.<\/p>\n<p>Of those, the only real upgrades are a new chipset and a battery with a 100mAh capacity boost, so this could be just a very slight improvement over its predecessor.<\/p>\n<p class=\"newsletter-form__strapline\">Sign up for breaking news, reviews, opinion, top tech deals, and more.<\/p>\n<p>It might at least come in some different colors, with leaks pointing to purple, black, gray, and white shades, but that\u2019s hardly likely to tempt many buyers.<\/p>\n<p>We\u2019ll probably find out how accurate this all is \u2014 and whether many people actually want to buy the Samsung Galaxy S26 FE \u2014 in September or October, as that\u2019s around when it\u2019s likely to launch.<\/p>\n<p><a id=\"elk-cc95249c-c045-4acc-ba62-41c488c5291a\"\/><\/p>\n<p>Today&#8217;s best Samsung Galaxy deals<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/news.google.com\/publications\/CAAqKAgKIiJDQklTRXdnTWFnOEtEWFJsWTJoeVlXUmhjaTVqYjIwb0FBUAE?hl=en-GB&amp;gl=GB&amp;ceid=GB%3Aen\" target=\"_blank\" id=\"elk-262f39bd-c2ae-4f95-9b7e-90b18f75706d\" data-url=\"https:\/\/news.google.com\/publications\/CAAqKAgKIiJDQklTRXdnTWFnOEtEWFJsWTJoeVlXUmhjaTVqYjIwb0FBUAE?hl=en-GB&amp;gl=GB&amp;ceid=GB%3Aen\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer-when-downgrade\" data-hl-processed=\"none\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\"><\/p>\n<p class=\"vanilla-image-block\" style=\"padding-top:31.51%;\">\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/diM9tpwF2Lz85R8q85CT78.jpg\" alt=\"Google logo on a black background next to text reading 'Click to follow TechRadar'\"   loading=\"lazy\" data-new-v2-image=\"true\" data-original-mos=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/diM9tpwF2Lz85R8q85CT78.jpg\" data-pin-media=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/diM9tpwF2Lz85R8q85CT78.jpg\" class=\"rounded-[var(--image--border-radius,0)] pull-rightinline\"\/>\n<\/p>\n<p><\/a><\/p>\n<p id=\"elk-7dee8a67-5afa-42b0-b5b0-9725f7f056c7\"><a data-analytics-id=\"inline-link\" href=\"https:\/\/news.google.com\/publications\/CAAqKAgKIiJDQklTRXdnTWFnOEtEWFJsWTJoeVlXUmhjaTVqYjIwb0FBUAE?hl=en-GB&amp;gl=GB&amp;ceid=GB%3Aen\" target=\"_blank\" data-url=\"https:\/\/news.google.com\/publications\/CAAqKAgKIiJDQklTRXdnTWFnOEtEWFJsWTJoeVlXUmhjaTVqYjIwb0FBUAE?hl=en-GB&amp;gl=GB&amp;ceid=GB%3Aen\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer-when-downgrade\" data-hl-processed=\"none\" data-mrf-recirculation=\"inline-link\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Follow TechRadar on Google News<\/a> and <a data-analytics-id=\"inline-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/preferences\/source?q=techradar.com\" target=\"_blank\" data-url=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/preferences\/source?q=techradar.com\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer-when-downgrade\" data-hl-processed=\"none\" data-mrf-recirculation=\"inline-link\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">add us as a preferred source<\/a> to get our expert news, reviews, and opinion in your feeds.
