With all the best things from the Galaxy S26 series, the Galaxy S26 FE is the gateway to the premium Galaxy experience — made for the way you live and create, so you can get more out of every day.

Welcome to Galaxy S

What sets the Galaxy S experience apart is its premium and intelligent camera capabilities that make capturing special moments easier in high quality, an experience that the Galaxy S26 FE delivers from hardware to features, powered by Galaxy AI.

The Galaxy S26 FE features an enhanced triple rear camera with advanced image processing, including a 50MP Wide Camera and 8MP Telephoto Camera that supports 3x Optical Zoom. It also has enhanced Nightography that captures bright, clear shots in low light while preserving every detail, ensuring your best moments never get lost in the dark.

First introduced in the latest Galaxy Z series, it finally brings My FanCam to Galaxy S — a feature that intelligently tracks a selected person, reframing video as the scene moves, for less need for manual editing. There’s also Super Steady with Horizontal Lock, which made waves in the market when it was launched with the Galaxy S26 series, as it lets you capture level, smooth footage while filming fast-moving activities like sports, travel, and everyday adventures.

Meanwhile, the enhanced Photo Assist can elevate any photo, even after the moment has passed — adding, changing, or restoring elements using natural language prompts, with an edit history you can review step by step and revise or undo along the way.

Your Tool to Life-Maxxing

The Galaxy S26 FE is built to keep up with you, no matter how packed your day gets, with a long-lasting 4,900mAh battery that allows you to reach up to 69% charge in around 30 minutes with the 45W adapter.

Powered by the latest One UI 9, the enhanced Now Brief features customizable briefing cards like weather and wellness insights that you can create using a single prompt while Now Nudge has expanded to select third-party apps and notifications providing users with relevant insights all throughout the day.

When you’re ready to make the switch, Smart Switch keeps the upgrade process simple and hassle-free. With just a few taps, you can transfer your data, photos, apps, and settings from your old device, allowing you to continue right where you left off—without the stress of losing files or having to start over.

The Galaxy S26 FE is now available at Samsung Experience Stores nationwide and will be available on Samsung.com/ph starting September 11. It comes in three colors—Blueberry, Graphite, and Pistachio—with prices starting at ₱46,990 for 128GB, ₱53,990 for 256GB, and ₱67,990 for 512GB.
