On August 20, Samsung Electronics announced that it will hold the 'Samsung Galaxy Event' at 9 p.m. on the 27th, where it will unveil the new family of the Galaxy S26 Series. The event will be broadcast live on Samsung.com and the Samsung Electronics YouTube channel.

The company did not disclose the specific product name or specifications, but the industry expects that the 'Galaxy S26 FE (Fan Edition)' will be introduced. This expansion of the lineup comes approximately six months after the release of the new Galaxy S26 in February this year.

The FE is a sub-premium product line that retains the core features of the flagship S Series while lowering some specs to offer a relatively affordable price.

According to industry sources, the Galaxy S26 FE is expected to feature a 6.7-inch Full HD+ flat display and to be equipped with the 'Exynos 2500' application processor (AP). The Exynos 2500 was first adopted in last year's Galaxy Z Flip7. The display will support a refresh rate of up to 120Hz.

For cameras, the device is expected to have a rear setup comprising a 50-megapixel wide, a 12-megapixel ultra-wide, and an 8-megapixel telephoto lens. The front camera is likely to be 12 megapixels. Memory is expected to be 8GB, with storage capacity of up to 512GB.

The battery capacity will be 4,900mAh, and it will support up to 45W wired charging. The industry predicts that power efficiency will be improved compared to the previous model. The device is mentioned to be available in colors such as Blueberry, Graphite, and Pistachio. With reinforced durability, a wide range of Galaxy artificial intelligence (AI) features is also expected to be implemented.

As Samsung Electronics accelerates its market expansion with an extended Galaxy S26 Series lineup following the launch of new foldable phones in the second half of the year, 'price' is cited as a key factor that will determine the product's success. There is keen interest in how Samsung will price the new AP, improved battery efficiency, and AI features.
