Samsung's next big device announcement isn't until July, but to tide us over, there's a leak about an upcoming device that might have flown under your radar until now.

9to5Google spotted a Wireless Power Consortium listing for the Samsung Galaxy S26 FE (or Fan Edition), a new lower-priced version of the S26 that launched earlier this year. (Although, in the age of RAMageddon, lower-priced may be relative.) The listing contained an image that has seemingly since been removed, but persists on social media. In the image, you can get an idea of what the phone will look like when it launches sometime later this year.

Take a closer look at the camera bump.

If you've ever seen a Samsung phone before, it doesn't look too surprising. As 9to5Google pointed out, the camera bump has shifted a bit to be closer to the device's top left corner, so that's one change to note. As for other information, the listing doesn't contain much. A recent leak indicated the phone will use an Exynos 2500 chip rather than the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 chip powering the regular S26, to go along with 8GB of RAM in the S26 FE, as opposed to 12GB in the S26.

In other words, it will probably be a slightly downgraded device with some flagship flair and (hopefully) a reasonable price tag.
