New leaks about the Galaxy S26 FE’s camera system have started circulating, giving us an early look at what the next FE model might offer.
Android Authority reports that the Galaxy S26 FE (internal codename “r14”) follows the same naming pattern as the S24 FE (r12) and S25 FE (r13). The main camera is expected to use a 50MP Samsung ISOCELL S5KGN3 sensor, the same one found in the S25 FE and S24 FE.
It’s a 1/1.57-inch sensor with 1µm pixels. It has an f/1.8 aperture, a 24mm-equivalent focal length, dual-pixel phase detection autofocus, and optical image stabilization.
The telephoto side relies on an 8MP OmniVision OV08A1 sensor that delivers 3x optical zoom, an f/2.4 aperture, PDAF, and OIS.
Two more 12MP sensors round out the package: a Galaxy Core GC12A2 and a Sony IMX825. It’s not 100% confirmed which one is the ultra-wide and which is the front camera, but looking at recent Samsung phones, the IMX825 (used as the selfie camera on the S25 FE) is the more likely front sensor, while the GC12A2 (previously seen on the Galaxy A37) would handle the ultra-wide. All the cameras support 4K video at 60fps, and the main sensor also adds 8K recording at 30fps.
Beyond the cameras, other rumored specs paint the S26 FE as a solid mid-to-upper-tier option for Galaxy fans. It’s expected to run Samsung’s Exynos 2500 chipset on a 3nm process, pack a 4,900mAh battery with 45W wired charging, and feature a 6.7-inch Dynamic AMOLED 2X display with a 120Hz refresh rate.
On pricing and timing, Dealabs points to a possible official reveal around September 1. In Europe, the 128GB model is tipped to start at €799, about €50 more than the previous version. Higher storage options are expected to carry modest bumps as well.
Overall, the leaks suggest Samsung is sticking with proven hardware and refining the performance rather than overhauling the camera system for the S26 FE. The dual-stabilized main and telephoto combo, solid video options, and updated internals should appeal to fans who want flagship-adjacent features without the full flagship price.
