Samsung Galaxy S26 FE: Delivering the Latest Flagship Experience, Focused on What Matter Most

Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd.

First in the Galaxy S26 line-up to launch with One UI 9, Galaxy S26 FE pairs advanced camera capabilities with the latest Galaxy AI

SYDNEY, Aug. 27, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd. today announced Galaxy S26 FE, the newest addition to the Galaxy S26 family and the first in the line-up to launch with One UI 9 – bringing the latest premium Galaxy experiences to more users from day one. With enhanced camera capabilities and more context-aware Galaxy AI, it elevates how users capture, create and connect every day. Built around what users value most in a thin and light design, Galaxy S26 FE carries the iconic Galaxy S experience forward.

"Galaxy S26 FE is a purposefully designed to deliver the signature strengths of the Galaxy S series, ensuring that every feature makes a meaningful difference in users' daily lives," said Jay Kim, Executive Vice President and Head of Customer Experience Office, Mobile eXperience (MX) Business at Samsung Electronics. "Packed with beloved Galaxy camera and AI experiences, backed by the latest One UI 9, Galaxy S26 FE comes to life as an ideal choice for those who know exactly what matters most to them."

Sharper Capture, Effortless Editing
Galaxy S26 FE delivers a more capable camera experience from capture to edit, with an enhanced triple rear camera and advanced image processing that help users capture and refine the moments that matter – whether shooting still scenes or fast-moving action.

  • My FanCam[1], first introduced on the latest Galaxy foldables, is now available on Galaxy S26 FE. It automatically tracks a selected person and keeps them centred, intelligently reframing video as the scene moves so users can turn dynamic moments into social-ready content with less manual editing.
  • For video, Super Steady[2] with Horizontal Lock is a favourite among Galaxy S26 users – helping capture smoother, more level footage while filming fast-moving activities, travel moments and everyday scenes on the go.
  • Galaxy S26 FE supports 3x optical zoom, giving users more confidence when shooting from a distance. For selfies, an enhanced 12MP front camera[3] captures more in every frame, making group shots easier to take[4].
  • Nightography4, a signature of the Galaxy S series, helps users capture bright and clear shots in low light, with detail preserved even in the most challenging scenes.
  • Even after the moment has passed, Photo Assist[5] makes it easier to refine images using natural language prompts – turning day into night, adding new elements or restoring missing parts. Plus, edits can be reviewed step by step and revised or undone along the way.

With Gemini Omni[6], users can easily create and edit videos clips based on photo and videos from their Gallery, turning them into polished, ready-to-share videos.

Built to Keep Up Throughout Your Day
Galaxy S26 FE brings meaningful upgrades to the everyday essentials users rely on most including a long-lasting battery and a bright display built for work, entertainment and creativity from morning to night.

  • A long-lasting 4,900mAh battery[7] keeps users going while maintaining the slim and refined design of the Galaxy S26 line-up. Users can reach up to 69% charge in around 30 minutes with the 45 W adapter powering up quickly to stay connected for longer.
  • A 6.7-inch[8] AMOLEDdisplay with up to 120Hz refresh rate provides smooth, immersive visuals with brightness, resolution and clarity for streaming, gaming, browsing and creative work.

Users choosing Galaxy S26 FE as their next device will feel the power of the Galaxy experience from day one. An improved Smart Switch helps users get set up more easily, making the move to Galaxy feel like a warm welcome. Meanwhile long-term software updates and Samsung Care+ provide added confidence over time.

  • Upgraded Smart Switch[9] makes moving to Galaxy easier than ever. Whether switching from an Android or iOS device, users can scan a QR code to wirelessly move data – from passwords and passkeys to call history, accessibility settings and eSIM data – with no extra apps and less setup time.
  • Galaxy S26 FE is built to last, with up to seven generations of OS upgrades and seven years of security updates[10] allowing users to enjoy the latest features with confidence for years to come.
  • For added peace of mind, Samsung Care+[11] offers comprehensive coverage optimised to users' needs, including fast repairs for accidental damage, and certified expert support at home. With One UI 9, the new Warranty and care settings hub also makes it easy to enrol in, access and manage Samsung Care+, along with other device care support.
  • A 6-month free trial of Google AI Pro[12] will bring expanded AI capabilities and 5TB of cloud storage valued at AUD $32.99 per month[13].

Together, these enhancements deliver the Galaxy experiences users rely on every day in one thoughtfully crafted device.

Galaxy AI Experiences, Always One Step Ahead
Powered by the latest One UI 9, Galaxy S26 FE brings a range of intuitive, context-aware Galaxy AI[14] experiences that make daily life easier by adapting to users' routines to keep them informed and organised. It also handles everyday tasks faster and more seamlessly on the user's behalf.

  • Updated Now Brief[15], first introduced on the Galaxy S25 series, is even more personalised through customisable briefing cards like weather and wellness insights. Users can now create their own cards with a simple prompt, making Now Brief more relevant throughout the day.
  • Now Nudge[16] is expanded to select third-party apps and notifications, surfacing timely, relevant suggestions across more of the day helping users turn insights into action and manage everyday routines with less friction.
  • Circle to Search with Google[17] now allows users to search for multiple items in an image at once, making it easier to identify products, places, objects and more in a single step.
