Samsung hasn’t announced the Galaxy S26 FE yet, but you can already watch someone holding one. A user on X posted what he claims is a hands-on video of the phone, and it comes weeks after the device went through FCC certification. 

The video shows the phone running Android 17 with One UI 9 layered on top. The camera bump follows the same design language Samsung has used across this year’s lineup — individual lenses sitting inside one oval-shaped island rather than separate cutouts.

On the display front, you’re looking at a 6.7-inch AMOLED panel with a 120Hz refresh rate. The battery comes in at 4,900 mAh, paired with 45W fast charging. Neither number is new — the Galaxy S25 FE launched with the same battery and charging speed. 

What has changed is the chip. The device is powered by Exynos 2500, along with a new sensor for the 12MP ultrawide camera.

A separate listing backs up the chip detail. The Galaxy S26 FE, carrying model number SM-S741U, showed up in the Google Play Console database with an Exynos 2500 paired to a Samsung Xclipse 950 GPU. Meanwhile, the Galaxy S26 FE has already run Geekbench scoring 2426 and 8004 single- and multi-core points, respectively. 

The listing also confirms 8GB of RAM, a 1080 x 2340 resolution, and a screen density of 450 DPI. Samsung is reportedly planning purple, green, and black color options, and 45W wired charging carries over as expected.

The Galaxy S26 FE is expected to launch in early September, alongside the Galaxy Tab S12 series. We will keep you in the loop for more updates.
