A massive leak of 28 marketing images [1] has revealed the design and specifications of the upcoming Samsung Galaxy S26 Fan Edition.
The leak provides a comprehensive look at the mid-tier device before its official debut. Because the Fan Edition bridges the gap between budget and premium models, these details signal Samsung's strategy for the 2026 hardware cycle.
Technical specifications surfaced through online publications and regulatory filings in the UL Demko certification database [3]. The device features a 6.7-inch display with a 120 Hz refresh rate [4] and is powered by an Exynos 2500 processor [4]. To support these components, the phone includes a 4,900 mAh battery [4] and supports 45 W charging [3].
On the software side, the device will ship with Android 17 and One UI 9 [8]. Storage options are expected to include 128 GB, 256 GB, and 512 GB [6].
The leaked images show the phone in Graphite and Aqua Green [6]. A third color option has been reported as either a blue colorway [8] or a shade between blue and purple [6].
Samsung has not commented on the leak. However, industry reports suggest the company will officially announce the phone at the IFA event in Berlin in early September [8].
“A massive leak of 28 marketing images has revealed the design and specifications of the upcoming Samsung Galaxy S26 Fan Edition.”
The inclusion of the Exynos 2500 and 45 W charging indicates that Samsung is pushing more high-end performance into its 'Fan Edition' line. By aligning the S26 FE more closely with the flagship S-series specifications, Samsung aims to capture a larger share of the premium mid-range market, though the reliance on Exynos chips remains a focal point for performance comparisons against competitors.
