Samsung Galaxy A26 features upgraded specs and design

The Samsung Galaxy A26 has been reviewed and is expected to be an important device for the company in various markets. This model features a slightly updated design compared to its predecessor, the Galaxy A25, and includes some notable upgrades. The retail box is quite basic, containing only a USB-C cable, a SIM ejector tool, and some paperwork. The Galaxy A26 introduces a new camera layout, with a glass back that is protected by Gorilla Glass Victus+. The review unit we received is in a fresh Mint color, ideal for spring. The phone comes with a larger 6.7-inch Super AMOLED display, featuring Full HD+ resolution and a smooth 120Hz refresh rate. While the side bezels are slimmer than on the A25, the Galaxy A26 retains the older waterdrop notch for its 13MP selfie camera. The display is also protected by Gorilla Glass Victus+, and this model includes IP67 water and dust resistance, a first for the A2X series. Under the hood, the Galaxy A26 is powered by Samsung’s Exynos 1380 chipset, which is also used in the previous Galaxy A35 and other Galaxy models. It has a 50MP main camera, an 8MP ultrawide lens, and a 2MP macro camera. The battery capacity remains at 5,000 mAh, along with 25W charging. On the software side, the device runs One UI 7 based on Android 15 and Samsung promises up to six years of Android OS upgrades and security patches. Our review team will conduct standard tests and release a detailed review soon.
